What�s the premise?
Trash, bash and crash your way through the world as Dr. Bruce Banner�s nightmarish alter ego, the Incredible Hulk, in a series of missions or take your time and explore and demolish the scenic open environment of New York City.
This game is most similar to�?
Spider-Man 3.
Is it suitable for younger gamers?
Hulk smash! Want to hear that coming from your kid as he clobbers you?
One player or more?
It�s just you and the not-so-jolly green giant.
The (not-so) secret to success is�?
Umm� Hulk smash? Like most fighting-based action games, you�ll need to master some combo moves to be able to get the better of some of your tougher enemies. You also need to remember that almost anything can be interacted with, so if you want to hurl a cement mixer at the bad guys � or funnier still, through one of the bad guys at each other � just go for it.
What�s missing?
Something other than Hulk smash? While the fully destructible environments make for some terrific sandbox fun, it does get a tad tedious after a while.
And in the end?
If you�re looking for some good old-fashioned chaos and destruction, with minimal plot complications, The Incredible Hulk is, well, a smash.
