20 Comic Book Video Games You Must Play Before You Die

5. Hulk: Ultimate Destruction

From one game that dabbles in smashing things, to another that positively revels in it. Remember how the second Incredible Hulk movie was a response to the dialogue-heavy Ang Lee original? Well, Hulk: Ultimate Destruction was like the exclamation mark to that already in-caps declaration statement. Developers Raven Software (yes, them again, they're awesome) introduced a system called 'Weaponisation' where you could take pretty much any item in the game world, hit a button and watch Hulk rip it into something useful. Cars could be split in half to become boxing gloves, busses could be surfed down the highway, missile packs on trucks could be torn off and tossed into oncoming helicopters - just let your imagination do the talking. In addition there were a bevy of wrestling-style grapples you could pull off on the over-sized Hulkbuster mechs sent to bring you down. That meant tussles in the desert where you were body-slamming gigantic robots, pile-driving helicopters out the sky and elbow-dropping tanks from 100ft in the air. Hulk: Ultimate Destruction lived up to and bypassed its namesake - proving that along with Prototype, Raven have the monopoly on the best power fantasy experiences in all of gaming.
