Hulk

Hulk is an action-adventure beat em up video game developed by Radical Entertainment and published by Vivendi Universal Games. It was released on May 27, 2003 for the Nintendo GameCube, PlayStation 2 and Xbox.

Why It Rocks

 * 1) The game is fully cel-shaded, making it look like an actual comic book game.
 * 2) Eric Bana returns to voice Bruce Banner.
 * 3) Instead of having the game be directly based on the divisive film, the game serves as a sequel with an original story. While the sequel to the film was quietly cancelled, this game could be a sequel to the film.
 * 4) Bruce Banner says “You wouldn’t like me when I’m angry” like in the show, in English compared to the film.
 * 5) The game ditches the arthouse and Freudian tone of the film in favor of a more balanced tone focusing on the destruction.
 * 6) Villains such as Colonel Ryker, The Leader, Ravager and Half-Life appear in the game.
 * 7) The player can unlock a Grey Hulk skin so the Hulk can talk away during levels.
 * 8) The Hulk battles are fun, which the developers later improved for The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction.
 * 9) Grey Hulk has a good amount of fun one liners.
 * 10) Bruce Banner’s stealth segments are a nice touch, depending on your view.
 * 11) The nightmare sequence at the beginning is a fun tutorial.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) Most of the levels are enclosed areas.
 * 2) Grey Hulk’s quotes can be repetitive whenever he defeats enemies.
 * 3) ”FIRE AT BANNER!” Hearing that over and over again can get tiring.
 * 4) The Hulk Dogs return with their grotesque designs.
 * 5) While Betty has Jennifer Connelly’s likeness, Connelly didn’t return to voice Betty.

Reception
Hulk received mixed to positive reviews.

Trivia

 * While the Ang Lee film didn’t have a sequel, this game could be considered a sequel.
