Book of Spells is the first title for Wonderbook™, the latest addition to the PlayStation experience. Written by Miranda Goshawk over two hundred years ago, the Book of Spells can be found in the Restricted Section of the Hogwarts™ library. This advanced textbook will assist students on their journey to becoming an accomplished witch or wizard. Read, discover, learn and practice spells such as Incendio, Wingardium Leviosa and Expelliarmus, as well as discover mischievous notes, spells and humorous anecdotal facts scribbled into the margins by previous Hogwarts™ students. J.K. Rowling has written a conundrum that leads you through the experience, providing insight into the values a witch or wizard has to learn, and inviting you to journey through the book to unlock new content, rewarding successful students along the way.

Book of Spells is sold separately from the PS3™ system, PlayStation®Eye camera and PlayStation®Move motion controller.

Ok this is truly something original by Sony and something that Nintendo never did before :)

This is disturbingly evil. These people are training children on how to practice witchcraft! Don't let your children be deceived by it! GOD warned us about this! Don't let America end up like Sodom and Gomorrah! May JESUS CHRIST protect all children from the evil spirits being generated and conjured up from this "game".

Too old Idea !! Augmented Reality Tool Kit ( AR Tool Kit ) did it years ago ! .. , They used Cameras to recognize certain codes drawn on simple cards & replace them with 3D objects or animations ..

Using HMD ( Head mounted Display ) to view it would be way better than only watching it on TV sets !! ..
