After making your way through all the rooms and completing the first mission, you are then free to roam the city of New York. Playing as Hulk, you have to make your way out of the building by defeating enemies blasting off rounds at you as well as a few larger robots that are a bit tougher to defeat. Landing on destructible objects will damage them, and anytime you land on the ground, the foundation around Hulk's feet cracks under the weight. X makes Hulk jump and holding it for a period of time allows him to build up his power and perform a massive leap into the air. You can either smash any object with a punch or grab it to throw it with Square or smash it with Triangle. Square is your light punch, Triangle is heavy punch, and Circle is grab. It's in this room where you get to toy around with Hulk's power, as you walk around and smash various objects at your disposal.
This is when you begin playing the game, as you have to rapidly tap Triangle and Hulk busts through the rubble.
The chase leads into a building where part of the ceiling falls on top of Bruce. The game then jumps to another cutscene where Bruce, designed to look like Edward Norton, is being chased by Army forces. As he points it to his own face about to pull the trigger, he then turns into the likeness of The Hulk from the new film. The Story Mode begins with Bruce Banner on his knees in icy tundra holding a revolver. When you load up the game, everything looks fairly decent. Therefore, it looks visually horrendous when played on the PS2, as images become blurred and pixelated, and animations become choppy and awkward. Secondly, while Ultimate Destruction was designed for second-generation consoles, this was obviously designed to run on the PS3 and 360. Development team Edge of Reality has taken over duties for Radical Entertainment, who worked on Ultimate Destruction and built the original Hulk-meets-open-world concept. There are perhaps a couple of estimations as to why this game lacks the same kind of charm. While the new Incredible Hulk game, loosely based on the new film, expands on the same open-world concepts, the storyline is far removed from the movie and the game lacks the same visual appeal that made Ultimate Destruction great.
PS2, Xbox, and GameCube owners got to hold the power of The Hulk in their hands, while free-roaming an entire city and playing along in a fun and imaginative storyline. With the amount of lackluster Hulk games in the past, many fans felt Marvel had finally done the big guy justice with 2005's Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction.
