The Incredible Hulk is an action-adventure video game developed by Radical Entertainment and published by Vivendi Universal Games in 2005. It was the first game in the franchise to feature free-roaming gameplay and emphasized environmental destruction over stealth elements. The game received generally positive reviews, with critics praising the visceral satisfaction of wielding the Hulk’s powers and the sheer magnitude of the destruction on display. The challenge level, controls, move set, and character and effect animations were also praised. However, the story and missions received mixed responses, while the environments were criticized.
There are a few cheats for the game, including a “Hulk Float!” challenge mission that allows players to destroy all buildings in a particular neighborhood and a way to earn a special Savage Banner skin for use in the game’s move shop. Players can also use a code to instantly fill their rage meter while playing the game. This code can be entered in the main menu and at Universal Code Input terminals within the Bruce Banner levels during the game’s story mode.
Various other cheats can be used to increase the game’s difficulty. The game’s hardest mode can be enabled by finding all Jump Markers in the City and Badlands areas. Additionally, the Hulk can be spawned at any time in the Badlands by entering the code HULKBREAK at the Universal Code Input terminals.
Another cheat that allows players to speed up the game is by entering ANGMNGT on the Code Input menu. This cheat will cause the Hulk’s rage meter to never go down. Players can also enter the code BRCESTN on the Code Input menu to automatically solve puzzles.
