Anyone who has been unfortunate enough to see action romp Thunder in Paradise, Hulk Hogan's absolutely, very last, no-more-chances-after-this attempt to break out as a mainstream film star, will understand why The Hulkster was being ferried around Atlanta in a red and yellow cadillac shortly after. Spoiler: it wasn't because the straight-to-video (and latterly serialised for TV) flick was a roaring success.
Robert Weaver, a game designer working on titles to prop up Philips' failing CD-i, disagreed. After seeing the pilot, he loved it so much that he pitched a story to Thunder in Paradise's producer Michael Berk. Special scenes were filmed for an interactive FMV game, loosely based around an episode of the show.
Despite Weaver's enthusiasm and the presence of big Terry, Thunder in Paradise failed to save the sinking CD-i; the console vanished from shelves just months after the game's release. Can't think why.
