ehhh....

Rating: 3/5

I kinda liked the early HP games, despite the bad graphics and the collecting madness. There was so much charm to be found in exploring Hogwarts. I agree with other reviewers that attending classes was one of the best parts.

This most recent HP game is all action. So boring! I am not a big fan of elaborate toolbars or RPG-esque equipping of characters. I am not a big fan of endlessly killing/destroying things to progress in the game. Thus, this game was a disappointment. I never finished it.

Graphics were nice, though.

a good HP game

Rating: 4/5

its a great game this one is. i have to admit, that i liked the others better, but they did a pretty good job with it. its fun, you use a lot of magic, but, its also probably the hardest HP game. i liked the other ones a lot because they allow you to run around the school aimlessly if you wanted.

one of the WORST parts about this game, is that ron will not SHUT UP! he is always winning about everything...

"Its so cold harry!", "im tired!", "Look! a bertie bott's every flavor bean! Wow!". it just goes on and on...

anyway, if you ignore all that :), its a pretty fun game. but i would definitely suggest the third game over this one.

It's ok

This is not my favorite of the Harry Potter games. It's so action oriented that it actually is very hard. It's great for people who like all action games, but I really feel it loses much of the story by being all action. And I miss tending classes. Part of the fun of the previous games was being able to go to school at Hogwarts and learning the magic. At least it was for me. I finished it, but I won't play it again.

EA you got lazy on this one....

Rating: 3/5

Since Chamber of Secrets everything has gone down the tubes in this book-to-movie-to-game world.
There's nothing else to say, besides actually implementing the long-needed multiplayer, EA just got lazy with this game. I should have known they'd gone the lazy way when instead of a digital Harry, they just slapped Dan Radcliffe as Harry on the cover and unlike others I think getting closer to the movies is a BIG mistake for the game series. And they slap movie pictures all over this game (on the cards for example). And that isn't so bad, the games do exsist via the movies (not the books) or we'd be preparing for game 7 right now. Even still, the meat you really need for a good game is found in adapting from the books not the movies.

1st note to EA, in the next game BRING BACK THE ABLITY TO ROAM AROUND HOGWARTS. Without teachers and classes, you really aren't getting a Harry Potter at Hogwarts experience. And come on, your took away QUIDDITCH in PoA!! Did you have to take it away from Goblet too. There's a perfectly good Quidditch game at the beginning of the book that would have made good use of a digital Viktor. Hell, it would have made a nice little bonus side-game at the least.

2nd Note EA: Keep the multiplayer of GoF, the special ablities that were unique to the characters in PoA, and the castle & grounds roaming Legend of Zelda style of the previous games.


Final note for EA - forget the movies and read the books - it will give you LOADS more material to load into the game. Nothing against the movies, but the good thing about the game is it doesn't have movie-length restrictions. And I know people brag about the graphics in this game, and they are good, but one thing that is not good (and I'll actually say it again) is trying to look like the movie. Let the game be it's own creature. I actually found Harry and the gang more unique in the PoA game. There was a movie similarity without being the movie's slave. Steal some of the meat from the book and meat up these HP games instead of scaling them down. The movies have no choice, but the games DO.
