Alex Mercer (Prototype) vs The Hulk?

From what I've seen of Alex, he's pretty freaking tough.

Here's some information on Alex Mercer. (From Wikipedia)

Alex's primary power is that of shapeshifting: he can control his mass, transforming himself into an arsenal of deadly weapons, such as turning his arm (in seconds, as seen in the new cinematic intro) into a large blade. He can also manifest other mutations such as huge, clawed hands, a long, sharp tentacle called the "Whipfist", or transforming his fists into huge hardened masses called "Hammer Fist" capable of smashing through tank armor. The fuel for these transformations is the biomass of fallen enemies that Alex absorbs in quick, graphic cutscenes. After killing a foe, the distinctive red-black tentacle mass that accompanies all of Alex's powers will burst from his body and drag the victim's form into his, consuming his memories and skills, and appearance along with his flesh. After consuming a foe, Alex can shapeshift to copy their appearance, allowing him to perfectly impersonate them. His powers can also change his eyes to allow him to see infection or traces of infected or to use "Thermal Vision" to see through obscuring smoke and other debris; however, this costs him some range of vision.

In addition to these shapeshifting powers, Alex is extraordinarily fast, agile and strong. He is capable of running at over 100 miles per hour, running up and across the sides of buildings, and jumping hundreds of meters. Alex is also capable of gliding. He is strong enough to easily grab and throw a car and eventually a tank as a projectile. He is also very durable and heavy, noticeable when he cracks the ground upon landing from great heights. Fire from an M16 assault rifle appears to do minimal damage to his body, but heavier weapons such as mounted machine guns, rockets and tank shells can cause serious damage to him, from which his body heals at a slow rate (in game terms) but he will quickly regain a larger amount of health by consuming someone. However, he can only retain a certain amount of biomass; if he consumes too much he must release it by using a Devastator attack. To further augment his durability, Alex can use his shapeshifting powers to transform his left arm into a huge, bony shield, or cover his entire body in armored plates, though he is slower in this form. These defensive powers can be combined with offensive powers for highly spectacular, destructive combat against the superhuman, zombified hordes of the Infected and the well-armed tanks, helicopters and infantry of the US military.

Even without shapeshifting Alex still possesses superhuman strength and agility. He can use a variety of kicks and punches, as well as more spectacular, gymnastic moves such as multiple "bouncing" tombstone drops, air combos, or sliding along the ground using an enemy's body as a surfboard.

Alex's most powerful moves are Devastators: huge, area-affecting attacks that use large amounts of biomass. Two Devastators have been seen in preview videos - one is an attack similar to the whipfist that sends dozens of razor-sharp tendrils shooting in every direction from Alex's body to impale or destroy all nearby foes, the second is a variation of the ground-spike attack, in which Alex shoves his biomass into the ground, causing dozens of gigantic pillar-sized spikes to erupt from the ground in an expanding circle around him, either impaling or sending everything above them flying.

And we all know the Hulk.

So who would win?

he's going to need to consume some people from one hulk shot.

That is, if Hulk is quick enough to catch him.

The way I see it, is Alex dancing around the hulk, hitting him, and mutating his arms and such to further hurt hulk.

Then I see him ending it with a devastator attack.

good luck causing irreparable damage to him.

speedfreek attempted a very similar tactic (but had adamantium weaponry), at the end of the day he got owned.

Did'nt know there was a Prototype comic.

Alex regularly uses tanks as projectiles, so he is not weak.

Him using devastator attacks (which include a series of huge spikes coming up from the ground, designed to impale his enemy), plus his strength, speed, and his weird mutations he uses as weapons, would be a lot for the hulk to handle.

Plus Alex could consume the hulk, or shape shift into him.

i don't think you know who the hulk is.

There is.

DC announced a partnership with Sierra, to make a new comic series.

Google it.

I know very well who the Hulk is, I know what he's capable of, etc.

But he wouldn't do very well against someone that could either consume him, or shape shift into him in which I believe Alex would have all of his normal powers, plus the Hulk's powers, and that includes his healing factor, and durability.

His rage fuels his strength, the madder he is, the stronger he is.

He also has an advanced healing factor.

But, if Alex wanted to, he could shape shift into the Hulk. Adding his own abilities with the Hulk's, there would be no way the Hulk would win.

Because Alex would match him in strength, outmatch him in speed, (speed is one of Alex's regular abilities), have his healing factor, have his Carnage-like weapons, plus devastator attacks.

He can use his devastator attacks when he wants to, and their name describes them, they are devastating.

I don't see how hulk could win. And I love the Hulk and all, but I think Alex has him beat here.

So Hulk isn't "easily" killing anybody in this fight.

You never said what hulk was capable of, just a vague overview of his powers.

Slightly amped Carnage? This Mofo would use Carnage as toilet paper.

So what's your point? I know his powers, if I didn't, I wouldn't be making decisions about a fight.

I've also heard that nowadays, Hulk's actions are controlled by Bruce Banner. Which means that he is not a mindless beast, so that means that he does not get as mad as he used to, so he is not as strong as he once was.

lulz

Knowing his powers and knowing what he is capable of are two completely different things, that is my point.

Obviously you don't know what he is capable of.

The Prototype comic is decent, good to see that somebody else is reading it.

Mercer is strong, versatile and very well all around. Alas, I don't think his weapons will inflict any lasting damage on the Hulk.

What are the limits of his transformations? Who does he transform into in the comics/game? Depending on the hardness of his weaponry, I think his weapons will do minimal damage or even break off trying to cut through Hulk's skin.
