 So much fun my hands hurt from playing it! February 8, 2008
This is a great game. I picked it up for 5 bucks and I would have paid a lot more. My 5 year old daughter loves playing this game with me. The controls are easy enough for a kid to learn. The violence isn't very realistic and she knows that it's just a game. She enjoys picking up the cows and throwing them as far as possible. They land on their feet and keep grazing. She also likes to pick people up and then she makes the Hulk put them back down and he pats them on their heads. We spent a few evenings working on finishing the game so we could play as the Abomination and Savage Banner. She has great fun with this game and I believe that it helps her get some angst out of her system. I would say that you should get this game. It's okay for kids because it isn't as realistic as some of the other violent games that I wouldn't let my daughter near. So don't be afraid of picking this up for yourself or your kids. It's a winner!

I am a huge comic book fan and love the Hulk. What's not to like? He is pure id, unmitigated rage and destruction, just what this game will do your hands and wrists after 10 minutes of play. The game is a fun experience for a few minutes and then just gets incredibly repetitive. After watching the Hulk Hands (boxing glove) animation for the 3rd time, it gets old. The action is fast and furious and you can destroy pretty much anything in your path.
The graphics as previously mentioned are subpar . The controls while decent can be frustrating. For example, if I want the Hulk to land with pin point precision on the top of a building so I can get a collectible, he will run for 100 feet or start climbing down or up, go anywhere but to where I am trying to point him. The camera controls could use some work. While it is not static and you can rotate it, it needed to be pulled back more so that you can see what is nailing you from just beyond your perimeter. It also snaps around way too fast if you just want to make a slight adjustment to it. I should not have to fight the camera while trying to play the game.
While the game does have a fair number of unlockables, like different Hulk skins and shorts, and combat moves. I found the game pretty shallow. Some of the mini games, such as racing or punching a car to a specific location are made frustrating by the unresponsive controls.
I recommend renting this game.
 Not for young kids (as rating clearly states) April 30, 2007
1 out of 3 found this review helpful
Well, let me preface by saying I disregarded the teen rating and bought it for a 5 year old, so shame on me. But my son is very well grounded in reality and can handle other teen rated games. However, I think this one is past his limit due to the following factor:
-there are no real goals except SMASH SMASH SMASH! You get points for everything from killing an innocent woman walking down the street to crushing a police car. Not a real good lesson for a 5 year old. Not a good scene to walk in on your kindergartner laughing his head off about crushing some folks on the sidewalk. Grand Theft, anyone?
Yeah, I feel kind of lame for saying it's not for kid's since the label clearly states "it's not for kids", but we all know the teen rating is sometimes overly cautious. In this case, I think it's correct. And the sad thing is, I don't think any teen is going to enjoy such basic gameplay for long.
just another typical PS2 action game with bad graphics... April 19, 2007

if you're looking for something innovative or interesting, this game definitely isn't where to go.. you're the hulk, and you have to pick up cars, run up buildings, throw stuff... ya know. it actually sounds a lot more fun than it is in practice, to me at least. i didn't feel any visceral joy in the process. it felt like just another typical run-of-the-mill mediocre PS2 action game to me, and this game really shows how far superior the XBOX's graphics are to PS2's. compare the graphics of ninja gaiden to this game.. there is simply no contest.
