Let's get the two worst things about this game out of the way. The hulk should get rid of David Banner if some super fairy ever comes along offering the wish be fulfilled. The Hulk game is no different. They should have scrapped the banner levels and just shipped a short game. It would have got much better reviews. The banner levels are only terrible in that they are HARD, and they stop you from doing what the rest of the game excels at: smashing things and people as the hulk. Man oh Mickey playing as the Hulk is better than Rock n Roll. Smash walls, people, cars, pillars and everything in sight. This part of the game is awesome. Unfortunately the makers of the game must have known this and so they have you doing it again and again and again. This gets a little monotonous. Luckily it is so much fun that it is not too big of a problem.

Bottom Line: Is it fun? Oh man is it. If you have some love for the green guy, get the game. But, only do so if you can get codes to completely skip the terrible Banner levels. Will I keep it? Tempting, but no. As fun as the hulk levels are they get monotonous. Is it for kids? If you're ok with kids smashing and bashing people the controls are simple enough.

For Fans only!

Good: Solid Graphics, nice gameplay, great cheat codes, more gamma characters.
Bad: Sometimes the Hulk appears seethrough or transparent,no backround music playing, Lacks realism from movie and not consistant with movie.
This game has many positives. Although it has many negatives as well. This game appealed to me because of the Hulk smashing things and kicking some a**. The new gamma creatures are strong and difficult to kill which makes you strive for a better game. The gamma created dogs, three in the movie, are numerous and attack in groups of 3. This was a real letdown considering there were only a total of 3 dogs in the movie.
Playing gets tiresome towards the end a little bit of music could have done this game wonders. After the game is done you just put it down and forget about it. There is not much extra to do than repeat the levels.
All in all if you dont think you will get tired of the smashing and smashing and killing and smashing then get this game, or if you are a Hulk fanatic.

If you are into the Hulk then you will enjoy this game. Smashing, crashing and wreaking havoc on environments, dogs, larger enemies and guards is alot of fun. The storyline is average but the creators have captued the sprirt and look of the more recent film, mixed it with a good level of comic book scenerios and cel-shaded the entire mix to please those green loving individuals.

However, non-Hulk fans and casual gamers beware. This game is repative, frustratingly annoying as Banner and short in length.
I found the Hulk parts to be amuzing and semi-engaging. The first few hours of crashing and breaking everything was fun but soon narrowed itself down to " another room, more to smash yawn".

The storyline is good but predictable and there are no real surprises here.

The much talked about Banner sections ARE annoying and break up the momentum felt playing the Hulk in previous levels. Banner uses really simple stealth tactics and no matter how good you are there is no way you will get through these levels in one go. The AI seems super sensative in these areas and it doesnt take much to make one guard aware of yah presence and then you will have many running in your direction. When this happens don't both, just let them kill yah cause Banner has the weakest fighting system i have ever encountered. Your punches are weak and often miss as you are surrounded by enemies. I mean even the scientist can kick you into the next world. Don't get me wrong, i have no issues with hard stealth action, (Splinter Cell was great and challenging), but these give you no chance are ill conceived as part of the gameplay. This to me seems like sloppy development. You go for being a strong bone crushing green menace with a above average fighting system to a small, weak loser that can't battle his way out of fight with a Backstreet Boy, (no there are no Backstreet Boys in the game but wouldn't it have been cool to pick one up and swing him through a window).

The overall game is not that lengthy nor has an epic feel as described in other reviews. This epic feel may be due to the many restarts for the Banner sections, which may give the game a more lengthy feel that what is actually there.

The first time i played this it took me about 12 hours over two nights. The second i played with cheats and got through it in about 6 hours. Overall, not a lengthy game and i only played it again cause i was curious to how the cheats would assist me in the game. It helped in getting through the game quicker but it was still repative and dare i say it a bit boring.

The only real benefit to the cheats is that you can get through the Banner sections quicker though even if you get seen with cheats it takes some time to finally knock out all the guards surrounding you by doing flips and punches. Also i noticed that in some levels all doors will lock on you when you are spotted, so forget about running through a door to get away. You are stuck there for the long haul, so FIGHTING is yah only way to unlock the doors.Even with cheats this becomes frustrating because guards are relentless and will butt u with the butt of there rifle. It still quite difficult to punch as well cause the guards move about frantically. Once again i don't mind a challenging fight but these are just frustrating and really poorly excuted. The Banner section really needed more work done on it and really kills what is a fun average smash em.

So, in conclusion, unless your a die hard hulk fan i'd rent the game over a weekend and gey yah moneys worth. There are just too many faults, short storyline and no repeat value to the game. You play it once your done.There are much better fight games out there that have environment crumple, excellent controls and good storylines to waste yah time on than this. Granted the fluro Hulk looks good and for some reason the green colour peaked my interest but what we have here is another average movie tie in that really needs some re-working...

Rent it !!!!!!

I forgot to mention in my last review if you open all levels
you also open up all the challenge modes which include endurence
mode 1 and 2 were you fight waves and waves of different enemies
to try to beat the high score.There are 50 waves for 1 and 50
waves for 2.In 1 you fight missile soldiers,alpha guards,
and gamma dogs.On 2 you fight soldiers,gamma guards and gamma
dogs.On both levels you have a lot of weapons at hand.If you use
invanurability you will get thru these levels and wicked punch
will make quick use of the dogs.Than there's time attack level
1 and 2 were you have a certain amount of time to take out as
many enemies as possible.The last one and my favorite is
the hulk smash mode were you have 4 minutes to destroy as
many objects as possible.Remember if you want to open
challenge mode you have to open up the all levels in the cheats
or you'll only be able to get to certain ones by getting to
certain levels.Also if you turn on rage mode in the cheats

which is angmngt you will stay enraged and do a lot of
damage. By using the gamma crusher in rage it will take
out and kill a lot of enemies and make the ground crack
to.And Super sonic clap in rage will also take out a lot
of enemies by what I like to call flash frying them.If you
don't turn rage on in the cheats you will have to wait
for your rage meter to fill up.

Your gonna love this game! It's as good as the movie!

The Hulk. Well, you are probably thinking that this is just another boring game to come out that ties in with a movie. If you think that, then you are so WRONG! This game is really FUN and maybe it does get a little boring because it's so repetitive, but it's still a great game! You'll Love it!

Better than the movie

i Bought This Game a month Ago, and it Turns out to be one of the coolest games.

You Play as The Hulk The Green Monster, and Bruce Banner as you sneak and smash your way through this epic adventure. Only by Controlling the incredible power of the beast within can you destroy the diabolical intentions of the Leader To save the world and your self!

BRUCE BANNER:as Bruce Banner you must rely on your intellect and Stealth . avoid Detection as much as Possible , if you didn't The guards will give you a hard time, and gather clues and fight only when Necessary, Don't Fight any Guard you see. and i know some of you don't like to Be Bruce Banner but i find it Fun.

HULK:There are no limits to the Destructive power of the Hulk. Capable of Smashing through buildings and defeating whole group of Enemies, The Hulk uses a Series of specialty Moves and his unmatched strength to unleash a whirlwind of Destruction.

In the Game there are:
*25 Fully Destructible and inter-active environments if you can see it you can smash it.

*Battle notorious classic Villans and massive new foes. Fight up to 10 enemies at once.

*45 Devastating attacks to dipose of your enemies.

*out smart your enemies as Dr.Bruce Banner, using Stealth and Disguise.

if You Are having Trouble with the game i can Help With Some Cheats Go to Options to Code input and Inter These Passwords:
GMMSKIN For Invinsible Powers, The Enemies can't kill You if you are the Hulk or Bruce Banner

HLTHDSE To Double Ur Health Power.

GRNCHTR For Unlimited Continues.

if You Use "GMMSKIN" You Will Finish the Game.

I played this Game and it's Really short i finished with in two days. But i Want MORE To Smash Things While You Are The Hulk.

The marketing blitz for the Hulk Move has been phenomonal. Cereals, magazines, toys, and of course computer games. The Hulk actually is fairly good, with a balance between Hulk smashing and Bruce Banner puzzle solving.

You know the story. Smart scientist. Strange mutation. Turns into fury-filled Hulk monster. So the game goes back and forth between Bruce using his mind, and Hulk using his fists.

Both could have been really great, and there were hints of potential there. A neat number-swapping code breaking puzzle seems fascinating at first, but when you realize that it's just a matter of sliding numbers from right to left, the challenge vanishes rather quickly. The stealth usually involves crouching and standing behind boxes - a far cry from Splinter Cell.

On the hulk side, the destructable environment is neat and brings to mind the Matrix and Red Faction games. But the Hulk's attacks get boring VERY quickly. Every soldier takes a punch-punch-punch and goes down. Don't you think one punch would flatten them? His remaining attacks aren't much better. So you wade through a pile of people. Punch punch punch. Pick up a box, smash. Punch Punch Punch.

There are moments that are sort of cool. You see a pipe - grab it - now water sprays out and you use the pipe to baseball-bat your enemies. But those moments are few and far between as you plod from room to room just bashing your way through. At least in other mindless-bashing games like Diablo you had a wide variety of weapons and armor and other skills that were constantly increasing. With the Hulk, there's just him and his green fists.

Good for a weekend rental, or for casual gameplay. But even in the "mindless bashing" category I can think of many other games I'd rather pick up for a few hours to release aggression.

Movie tie in games have a bad history. Typically they are lousy games that try and change parts of the movie into settings that can fit in with game and don't really add anything new to the universe or gaming. Thankfully, The Hulk is different. Set 1 year after the movie, Bruce Banner continues to look for a cure to his gamma mutation. An old mentor contacts him with a possible solution and invites him to his lab. It's here that the game starts, with the player in the role of Bruce who must sneak around corners and hack computers. However, Bruce has been tricked- the following cut scene reveals that his 'friend' only wished to harness the powers of the Hulk for himself. This results in him becoming a light-green coloured hulk who then flees. Banner Hulks out- the chase is on and the fun begins. As the Hulk, you smash through levels with your super strength, pummeling anything in your way. Oddly, army soldiers can take 3-straight Hulk punches before going down. Just about anything can be picked up and used as weapons, from cars to soldiers. The Hulk has a basic range of attacks such as punching, ground-shaking leaps and a Gamma clap.

The Hulk is what all movie tie-ins should be- fun and interesting. Buy a copy now, it's a great stress buster.
