A SMASHING Success - Hulk 2003 Movie Game - Retrospective Review - W/ Dev Interview

Hulk 2003 goes beyond being a movie tie-in game. It of course checks those boxes, but it also pulls from other Hulk media such as the Bill Bixby TV Series, the Hulk Animated series, and of course the comics. This makes the game a tremendous hybrid experience that all Hulk fans will appreciate. The gameplay also serves as an excellent foundation for what would soon become Radical Entertainment's follow up game, Hulk: Ultimate Destruction.

We'll examine each those references in this video, however, we'll also dive deeper into the making of the game via an interview with Lead Designer, Eric Holmes. He was kind enough to share key insights into behind-the-scenes details, as well as cut content and early ideas. There's a lot to discuss, so I hope you enjoy this retrospective on the Hulk 2003 game!
