The Hulk Game Details

Xbox News | Everybody's favourite green comic book hero is coming to all 3 major consoles.
The latest movie to game conversion will hit the streets in the UK on June 13, 2003. It is Vivendi Universal Games' The Hulk, based on the highly anticipated film version of Marvel Comics' most memorable and popular Super Hero series. The action-packed game is currently being developed by Radical Entertainment for the Playstation 2, Gamecube and Xbox.

The games story line is set after the events of the film, The Hulk will deliver gamers an incredible experience beyond the movie. It combines visuals from the original comic book illustrations with the film's remarkable digitally-created graphics and environments, along with new imagery created exclusively for the game. Players can master two types of game play as either Bruce Banner or The Hulk as they battle lead characters from the film, familiar enemies from the Marvel Universe or new villains created specifically for the game. With fully destructible and interactive environments, players can virtually manipulate, destroy or use anything as a weapon. With his superhuman power fueled by rage, The Hulk can smash through any physical obstacle and annihilate his foes with over 45 devastating attacks.

"We have worked side by side with our theatrical partners to extend the Hulk experience beyond the big screen and deliver it to the hands of gamers," said Luc Vanhal, President & COO of VU Games, North America. "The movie uses CGI to create a fully-realized character onscreen and we have developed a game that brings all the power and personality of the movie character to gamers everywhere across a variety of platforms. You can expect The Hulk video game to be every bit as powerful as the film will be."

"The Hulk video game represents a three-pronged approach in building the ultimate action Super Hero franchise - from comic book to film to interactive entertainment," said Tim Rothwell, senior vice president, Universal Studios Consumer Products Group. "Our goal is to provide fans everywhere with a massive Hulk experience that will launch in the theater and on video games screens simultaneously."

"The transition for our characters from the Marvel Universe to the interactive universe is virtually seamless and only helps to enhance the overall experience," said Russ Brown, Executive Vice President, Consumer Products, Promotions & Retail Sales, Marvel Enterprises, Inc. "The Hulk has worldwide recognition and appeal, He is one of the most physically powerful and emotionally compelling Super Hero characters ever created. By extending this franchise across these mediums we are able to create exciting new chapters in Hulk lore."

I have a good chuckle everytime someone mentioned the Hulk, because nobody outside of Australia realises Eric Bana is a comedian, and a damn fine one at that.
