bit-tech News: The Incredible Hulk (Xbox 360)

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

We have just published a review of *The Incredible Hulk* for Xbox 360.

If you could post a link on your site that would be very much appreciated.

*/"We expected //The Incredible Hulk to be bad from the offset, not out

of some inherent bias but more to do with a realistic reflection of the

past and the facts of the matter. On this front, //The Incredible Hulk

didn’t disappoint us.

 

It’s predictable, samey, bland and as by-the-numbers as any game of this

type could be. The developers have got a checklist of all the usual

errors made on movie tie-ins and they’ve zipped down and ticked them all

expertly. As a game it’s more shallow than a Paris Hilton-wannabe and

uglier than the real-deal.

 

But, at the same time, it is kind of fun to mess around with. And no,

the Paris Hilton jokes stopped last paragraph //thankyouverymuch.

 

Elements of The Hulk’s character are captured very well and it’s quite

bizarre to see that Sega has done a better job of capturing the wall

climbing experience than Activision did with //Spiderman 3. Also, just

because a game is shallow doesn’t mean that it’s bad – every id Software

game ever proves that, just about. Despite all the chinks in the armour

and the fuzziness on the lens there is still a sense of progression that

makes the game involving to play and aspects of the animation do feel

suitably kinetic and powerful.

 

In the end, though //Hulk can’t claim to be as good as the majority of

the games out on shelves nowadays, he can certainly wipe the floor with

//Iron Man and the other comic-movie-adaptation-tie-ins at the moment."/

*Cheers guys!
