  • It's not really hard it's easy and I already beat the game

  • What's there to do in this game (the only thing to do in which I've found some fun) is to get 100% completion (Get all shields, get perfect on all potions etc ..)

  • It is impressive how harry potter games have gone downhill. The first three games were absolutely amazing, I played them at my Pc. Goblet of fire sucked, I played it only once and never touched it again. Order of phoenix had the greatest hogwarts and lots of tasks, but it lacked in wand combat. This one is slightly better in combat and side tasks, but felt way too short. The two deathly hallows games were terrible in every sense. No other harry potter game captured the essence like the first 3

  • @Ihatehaters246 Gotta agree, even though I never played the first 2, the third was amazing. Goblet of Fire had a good storyline, but the game made it my least favorite. Order of the Phoenix was OK, except that the dueling wasn't so great.

  • @Ihatehaters246 Deathly Hallows were not terrible in every sense. The story, music and enviroments were great, the gameplay and repeditiveness is what killed them.

  • i have it on ps3 i liked it !

  • So would you recommend getting this for my Wii or for my Xbox 360?

  • 5/10 is fair. the game is fun, but only for the first hour or so. then it gets very boring coz your doing the same 3 mini games over and over and over. theres not even much exploration involved (unless you actively go out your way). what happened to the original 3 for PS2, they were the days

  • Not the best game but I enjoyed playing it! The only problem was its way too short, I completed the WHOLE thing in like 7/8 hours!

  • Can you roam around every part of Hogwarts that you could in order of the Phoenix and a bit more as well, or are some areas that were in OotP not available to go in?

  • i got the game at home and it ok at bits it gets anoyying at quitiche

  • is this free roam aneyone?

    

  • @gilly0804

    yeah it is. it's a much bigger version of Order Of The Pheonix

  • We all are astonished... Just kidding, fuck your shit.

  • wich one is the best to get i want the one with the best magic and i want classes!!!!plz answer quickly

  • @wizardtoe

    in my opinion its Prisoner Of Azkaban (spelling?) yo get to play as all three of them and there are classes. or Lego Harry Potter is another one

  • I like how lego harry potter beat all of the other harry potter games

  • its a shame that the best books in the world get crappy games

  • just tried playing order of phoenix. total shit games these new ones. why would they even want to change the magic and cuteness of the first 3 games into this stupid movie remake crap video game genre...

  • on 1:31 he fights snape

  • I can understand that the gameplay has to change, the original 3 for PS2 were the best in the series, but with the target audience getting older, and the series getting darker its easy to see why the gameplay has changed

    BUT even so, this is just rediculous, OotP gameplay was very enjoyable, but HBP just takes what made that game good and removed everything, and replaced it with repetitive mini games that are labourious and easy. whatever happened to roaming hogwarts searching for secrets? :(

  • I own games 1-4 on PC. The 1st was good, but it didn't have a lot of replay value, and looks very dated. The 2nd and 3rd are still great. It's not that I didn't like the 4th, but the gameplay changed drastically. It played more like an RTS, where as the 1st 3 were basically action/adventure style. Never finished 4, although I did like the fact that it took on a more realistic graphical style, and made the characters look a lot more like their real life counterparts

  • I think they changed how the game works after the 3rd HP game because they wanted to aim at an older audience, and make the game feel darker, my fav HP games are the 2nd and 3rd but as the films got darker they want the games to mirror the darkness of the film, also the cast have gotten older, i think if they made all harry potter games like the 2nd and 3rd it would get kinda boring

  • Blimey, doesn't that look bad.

  • Harry potter taking pointers from Superman 64?

  • Order of the Pheonix was my fave personally. So much to do, more spells. More interaction with the world. I felt like i was actually walking through hogwarts. HBP, it left out sooo much, smaller castle, bad faces and voices and and only like three charms you could cast. I like POA the second best.

  • @Hello94232 The school grounds are nearly identical to the previous installment. Some new areas are added, including the entrance to Hogwarts. Other areas previously accessible are now inaccessible due to the new security of Hogwarts added by the aurors. So I wouldn't call it smaller, since places that h is unlocked in this game should have been unlocked in the POA...

    For the spell part, there was a reason why they removed it... Annoying as it is, I can't seem to find it...

  • i completely agree :)

  • The game wasn't that great. You barely do anything. But the Hogwarts castle itself is just amazing. I still get lost it's so huge.

  • fuck u man ....this is great game, and im not harry potter fan...a good game is a game which makes feel its environment...and this game does this very good.....you are just a jackass...u shouldnt review games.........leave this to pros

  • @JoNiMa2 you're not very mature are you? different people have different opinions, get over, I personally though it was an okay game, so I would give it a 6/10 , but really, I kinda like the earlier (first 3) games better, so much nostalgia from when I was 4 - 6 :D

  • this game sucks belive me y played

  • it is a vary short game

  • thanks for saving me alot of money on this game, I appreciate it!!

  • It's sad, I love Harry Potter, but this looks awful!

  • Harry Potter is amazing! :)

    The game seems kind of lame though :/

    Too bad! But you know what? The old gamecube games were addicting!

    They took like 4 hrs to beat but still. You could go out and fly on your broomstick around the enviroment whenever you wanted! Well except after dark. :b And in the 3rd one you could fly buckbeak! :]

  • @skyemarine the old games were defo better my fave is chamber of secrets that game was brilliant for it's cards being able to fly outside brilliant dungeons and spells, all they have in the new games are these terrible storylines (which i beat in 2 hours for the last 2 games) shitty duels and potion mixing the harry potter series is gonna die by being shot down at knees then a double barrel shot gun to the head

  • @DemolitianBoy666 i got to agree with you chamber of secrets was the best game from the harry potter series, it made you part of the story and i loved flying around anywhere on the broom

  • Comment removed

  • 0:56... 'Howwie'.. Lol :D

  • i can agree with alot of what he said, but a 5/10? this game isn't that bad that it deserves a 5/10. id say at least a 7 or 8/10.

  • I think the game deserved at least a 7/10 but im a die hard fan so thats my opinion

  • This game is brilliant I managed to get it free at GREATGAME |.| org

  • all they really did was throw in a free roam system because many people are into that, but once again that just proves them to be lazy -.-

  • i enjoyed the new film as much as i enjoyed the other films although i am a bit of a Harry Potter fan so i like everything with Harry Potter and i really liked this game and it's probably one of the best movie game well is the best movie game

  • I LOVE your username...

  • ...the ending was lame of this game... there was no boss fights at all... i mean all i did was blow them off their feet (no not lift them in the air) and charge the spell.. thats it. makes like 4-5 circles damage..

  • in 2 hours i finished the game i might as well watched the movie twice and had even more full filment

  • Beautiful OST,

    Not a bad movie..

    Crappy game :D

  • Philosiphers stone, Chamber of secrets, and Prisoner of Askaban still remain the best games in the series. What happened to all those brilliant puzzles and the magic of being involved in the story? EA, you have become lazy.

  • @ironjoker101

    agreed

    the original 3 are amongst my favs games ever.

    the way they made it really random (like the spell challenges, which were awesome) whilst retaining the feel of the book/film was brilliant.

    OotP was.. ok. but this and GoF are cack!

  • @ironjoker101

    sorcerers stone you mean and order of the phoenix was also great in my opinion and this one was okay wasn't that great though hogwarts isn't as well done in this game and it isn't as open roaming as order of the phoenix

  • @mitchelscott no you fucking idiot jk rolling is British and the British version is called philosophers stone and the books are not American their based in Britain  so get your facts straight

  • @thelurchy dude i knew jk rawling was british

  • in these new harry potter games there is not much to do and in these old one its like you are harry potter

  • @ironjoker101 i would buy them but there on xbox original and i sold mine and they probably not sell them anymore..

  • Has he ever given a 10/10?

  • @cojo5319 his only 10 was super mario galaxy 2

  • @cojo5319 yes

  • @cojo5319 Yep,super Mario Galaxy

  • @cojo5319

    Yes, Super Mario Galaxy. -.-

  • @cojo5319

    super mario galaxy 2

  • @cojo5319 super mario galaxy 2

  • @cojo5319 yes

  • @cojo5319 Yeah, he's given Super Mario Galaxy 2 a 10/10

  • @cojo5319 Several 9/10

  • @cojo5319 yes to super mario galaxy 2

  • @cojo5319 mario galaxy did -_-

  • If you wanna get a good Harry potter game, get Order of the Phoenix, honestly.

    I havent played this game yet, but by the sounds of it there isnt half as much to it is there was in Order of the Phoenix. Although the story in OOTP is quite short, there is TONS of exploring to do. So yeah, buy OOTP.

  • I have OOTP, and all it is is fetch quest after fetch quest, the exploring boils down to running along the corridors tidying the place up. Not all that exciting really.

  • This game is quite bad, the film was ok though, i love gamesweasel !

  • First time I have seen gameweasel reviews... they seem very straight forward without giving away too much plot and spoilers. And certainly don't seem to be sugar coated live some are.

  • the film is incredibly boring

  • im glad i saw this instead of wasting my hard earned money on it i can rent if from gamefly

  • gd movie

    bad game

  • I'm gonna buy this cause I'm a HP fan and I

    m sure I'll enjoy it

  • im a hp fan and i didnt enjoy it

    the is crap

    really

  • I'm probably still gonna get it.

  • HAHAHAHA 5 outta 10

    even the review makes mee wannna puke on this game

    even the movie sux

  • this isnt a verry good game i rented it and regreted it it gives away all the movie and achievements are just mainly natrual progression you dont realy earn them

  • fallout 3 is oblivion with guns

  • what does that have to do with harry potter?

  • Not really its pretty much different....

  • I miss the old HP games. Those on Game boy color were RPGs, and very fun to play. COS on PC and POA on Gamecube were probably the best HP games since you could roam around free and the fighting was actually hard sometimes(especially in POA). And I wish you could talk to the students, it doesn't feel like an HP game anymore to mer :(

  • snape kills dumbledor

  • i agree..1/10 I was able to complete the game in about 3 hours

  • 5/10 i would have given it like 1/10!!! this game is crap!

  • hehehe your voice sounds funny i like it!

  • Plot? This harry potter had no fucking plot when I watched the movie i wanted to throw up. over two hours of nothing but side quests and boring ness

  • cool quality review but it deserves better. the dueling system is great, but the quidich gets very boring i think 7-8/10 its a good fun game (finished it yesterday) took me about 3 or 4 days

  • its worth 5 out of 10 if you finish it in 3-4 days its way to short fallout 3 beats the shit out of this game

  • i beat the storyline of the game only completing about 10% of all the available crests and such. also isnt fallout 3 another shooting game? look im sorry but i dont get shooting games. u kill people... how fun....

  • nope fallout 3 isnt a "shooting game" you noob its an rpg and btw if you have ever even played fallout 3 you know its better then many wii games plus why are you buying a fucking harry potter game isnt it always the same thing the bad guy dies eventualy well yup i know voldemort dies in 6th book so why play a game then read the fucking book? nothing new and if there is anything new is there a point to it?

  • Actually fallout 3 is a rpg/shooter. Its mainly an RPG but it does have alot of shooting game elements. Dont get me wrong, i absolutley LOVE fallout 3, and i agree with everything else you wrote in your comment.

  • Its not just another shooting game, its more of an RPG than a shooting game. its easily the greatest game ever made. With a huge open world, tons of side quest, and a perfect levling up feature there is now way someone can sit down with fallout 3 and not have fun. Obviously you have never played the game, and u have very little knowledge of it, so i wont bash u to much. Just dont hate on fallout 3 again.

  • i love fallout 3

  • Fallout  3= tons of post nuclear fun !

  • you have a bad taste in games the harry potter games on playstation 1 are funner then this shit

  • he doesnt have a bad taste in games everyone has a differend taste.

  • 100% truth :D

  • i am a HP freak

  • "Average, a bit like a muggle."

    That was hilarious.

  • I LOVE harry potter movies but in my opinion all video games that are made after a movie are crap

  • What about Goldeneye on the N64? That was an awesome game that was based on a movie.

  • I never really care about most of todays films cause its the same boring CGI with live action which is getting dull every film.

    by the look of the game it looks like well shit of course cause its a game based on the fucking film and only real fanboys who are proberly very nerdy people would be into this sort of game.

    The game looks more like you go from one amateur cutscene to another it would be better if the game had more real gameplay than running around talking through 2 hour dialog.

  • Thats a steriotype you dont need to be nerdy to be a fanboy

  • true I was over reacting a lil bit sorry about that but I think most of us should easily predict the game is simply rubbish to most people but to people who into this kind of thing will love it.

    Imo when it comes to long dialog and story for a game I can only put up with it on some game series like Final Fantasy 1-12 but oh well thats just me.

  • Ever hear of a game Called Legend of Dragoon?  Best Game ever

  • Dumbasses this review didn' ruin the fim, they did't mention anything to do with the plot only the brief bit about the controls etc.

    Stop being such buzz kills!

  • whats a buzz kill? u said "stop being such a buzz kill" whats a buzz kill? ~_^

  • buzz kill means killjoy (It means stop spoiling the fun - kill joy you Kill the joy of it- buzzkill you kill the buzz) if u know what i mean...to shorten it, just means, stop spoiling the fun (the fun is usually misbehaviour)

  • ohhh thanks

  • Np :)

  • Oi lol I was supposed to answer that! :D

    But yeah, that's basically what it means. lol

  • this movie was that worst of all harry potter movies

  • The game deserves at least 8/10 because of the freedom to wonder around the huge castle,good graphics(especially for the ps3 and wii) and fun gameplay!The only thing is that they should have made it LONGER but im one of the biggest Harry Potter fans ever so i cant say anything bad about this lol

  • good game, graphics are descent, the castle is the most complete castle yet and the gameplay is fun. however on the down side there are no classes any more and it only takes 4-6 hours to complete, the cut scenes are slightly rushed, but still a fun game to have a go on :)

  • this game rocks for me.. that's because I just love to run around that beautifull castle and try to find all the shield things :D... I know the way around hogwarts how nooby am I?

  • Luna is awesome.

  • I'm an obsessive HP fan but I have to agree with this guy, the game was dissappointing.

    You can't even talk to the other students like in the other games

    the duels are ridiculously easy, the whole game is actually

    you should be able to play as ron also in quidditch because in the movie the quidditch parts are more focused on Ron.

    also you should be able to play as dumbledore to kill the inferi. that fiery spell would be awesome to use. What were they thinking!

    It was fun, yes but waytooeasy

  • You actually bought it?

  • how did he ruin the film?

  • fuck that this game is awsome it at least deserves an 8

  • listen who ever does this review show , your on a downer all the time have ever got anything good to say about anything you review , please!

  • thi game sucks balls

  • no.

  • this game show is shiiit 5/10 for harry potter thats bullshiit it deserves at leaset a 8 or 7

  • 5 my ass this game is pro, eh u didnt mention that theres a fkn hughe castle you can walk around in

  • 9 / 10

  • omg jast 5!!!!!!!!! no way!

  • it is unfortunate the movie pays such little attention to detail which the author of the book seems to strive in

  • I have always wondered, why is there only five beds for boys/girls in the gryffindor commonroom? I just don't get that

  • Which one has better graphics? The pc of ps2?

  • pc for real

  • this game sucks cause its based of a movie and those games always fail.

  • mortal kombat , bitch ownd

  • not x-men orgins

  • i hated greyback in this movie he was awfully presented and he doesnt look at all lyk i pictured

  • the film is TERRBILE most boring film ive seen in ages

  • I thought the movie was better than all the other ones, but it still was nowhere near as good as the books.

  • really? why there wasn't much going on really.

  • harry potter 7 will be the best

  • this game will be shit just like the movie and yes dumbledore dies by snape even though malfoy was supposed to kill him

  • the graphics are pretty gud

  • not bad for a wii indeed

  • your voice is asome

  • DID HE DIE?!?

  • Lmao,

    GreyBack - Looks like Gorilla on Drugs

    Bellatrix - Uhm, like a retard

    Snape - Uhm, that girl from the horror movie "Ring"

  • Comment removed

  • the one thing that would have made this game sooo much better is:

    to have FREE TIME!

    you have no time for roaming the castle.

    they should have done what they did for 'chamber and 'prisoner on ps2: when youv done your objections for the day you get the opportunity to do whatever u want before moving on

  • no it should get 0

  • i love this game,but it's way too easy.i finished it less than a day

  • if you didnt already know dumbledore died. A. your a dumbfuck B. why the hell are you even watching this you are clearly not a fan of the series C. dont rag on other people for actually reading a book you boneheaded numbnuts

  • Damn, Damn, Right Words!

    Love The Books, Love The Movies, Love The Game.

  • for wii u stupid game makers ps3 and xbox 360 owners are not double wii owner or not triple its around 5x

  • you saying xbox 360 players are 5 times better then wii players? Cause lets go right now!

    PC players DEMOLISH console players!

  • I agree a pc is the better of all consoles but I really don't consider it a console sine almost everyone has one but not many use it to play hardcore games

  • it's better on the Xbox 360. Fuck the Wii

  • Im Actually gonna buy it the movie was awesome i saw it with my best friend we almost cry when dunveldore dies =(

  • yea thanks for spoiling bro.

  • sorry if i fuck uf the movie for you

  • nobosy can spoil the ending of the film

    dumbledoor dies

    EVERYONE KNOWS!!!

    the books been out for like, 4 years. by now the ending is household knowledge

  • Why? :s

    Snape Is Way Cooler! :D

    You Should Cry, When Snape Dies. :o

  • Yeaaah..... Sure xD

  • For wii just stick with the classics, mario, zelda, metroid prime etc

  • the only good harry potter game i can remember was on the ps1

  • surprisingly yeah

  • Actually the graphics look really good for a Wii title.

  • the game is actually ok but they need to improve a lot i think it deserves edleast a 6
