The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction
System: XBox   Publisher: VU Games   Developer: Radical Entertainment   Genre: Action   Release Date: 08/23/05

The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction is at its best when your just doing your own thing between missions. You feel like you are controlling the Hulk. You can jump over small buildings, and easily scale larger ones. You can swat helicopters out of the sky. And you can smash up various vehicles to make shields or metal gloves that give you the extra power to smash those puny tanks into scrap metal. To be honest, I never got tired of seeing how far I could throw the terrified civilians.

Speaking of the civilians, they act exactly as you would expect them to act when they see a giant green dude fall from the sky and smash a building to the ground; they run screaming in the opposite direction. You get a certain level of satisfaction being a one man wrecking ball, and bringing a city to its knees. The kind of satisfaction you just won’t get from Spiderman 2 or any of the games in the GTA series.
 

Now the missions, as I already said, are mostly destroy this or protect that. But the boss battles have that epic feel to them. I’m not going to give too much away, but going toe to toe with a giant Hulk-Buster was absolutely invigorating. It was also one of those moments when there wasn’t much of a city left when you finally dispatch of the monestrous mech.

The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction gives you exactly what it promises. You get solid graphics, authentic in game sound-bites and voice-overs, and you get the unprecedented ability to see exactly how it feels to be green. This is one time that you do want to see Mr. Banner angry, and you will be doing yourself a favor to give this game a shot. And just remember the best part of this game as our big green friend the Hulk would say “HULK SMASH!!!”.
