this game is so tight. I beat it in four days. Yall really need to get this game. The thing is that it has alot of challenges, I had to repeat most of the game, like in gringotts. The thing that stank about it was the camera angles and the controls on the broomstick. But I am the best gamer in the world for an 11 year old going to be 12 on December 16th. You know that I could go on about this game, only because it is really good. And by the way, I beat this game in FOUR days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So you could just try to beat me at any game, Especially any WWF game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA.!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just read someone else's review and of course I love Harry Potter, but like they said it is too short. Some of the puzzles can be a l;ittle bit annoying at times when you have done them over and over again. I think that there should have been a map with it, and i also think that there should be a layout of the chess board because the camera angles are kinda lame at times. I really enjoyed playing this game and yes it only took like 3 hours but I have to remember it isn't designed for adults but kids and most kids aren't going to sit still through the whole game in one afternoon. lets' face it kids don't have that kind of focus.

The adventures were fun, But Gringots bank gets to be a pain in the arse after trying 4 and five times to do each section of it. And then also I think that there was a little bit of information left out, like when the kids are talking to one another, they don't say things that might help the player. For example, when you fight the Devil's Snare Hermionie says use "Incindio" but you use Flippendo until the last second and then you use incendio. Tis very strange. Over all this game is very enjoyable to me, the Quiddich matches are fun and my only complaint about the quidditch is that the broom handling can get bloody insane. But all in all i had fun playing it. :) I think that if someone wants something fun and laid back to play this is the game for them.

What's up with the bird??

I never bought this game, because after trying to play my rented copy, I had no interest in adding it to my (small) Playstation library. The reason? That darn phoenix in the back room of one of the shops! I tried and tried and went away, came back, and tried again, and never managed to get the feathers off that bird's butt! Other than that, I remember the PS game as having awesome graphics, an odd spell-learning method (timing is EVERYTHING), and the flying/Quidditch was cool.

I later bought the PC version of the game, and much prefer it. The spell-learning is difficult (staying in the lines while tracing a design with your mouse, the time limit decreasing - and accuracy demands increasing - each time), but more "realistic" in terms of what Harry & Co. must go through while trying to learn the "swish-and-flick" and other wand techniques. The graphics need some help, but the story/action/puzzles were all wonderful. And best of all - no stinkin' bird! ;-)

Requires some "Fast Fingers"

This game is great but I would rent if before you buy it! I bought it quite a while ago and I still haven't gotten past the broom flying part. (It's not as easy as it looks) I hate being timed,because I don't have really fast fingers! It was fun up till that point, now it just sits in the corner of my room collecting dust. Once in a while I drag it out, start a new game, and play till that point then I just put it back in the case and back in the corner it goes, until I figure out how to beat that part, it will stay there. Sorry Potter but I just have to dock a star, on this one :(

Where Are the Graphics?

I was really disappointed in this game. After having read all of the books and seeing the promos for the movie, I expected more from the graphics of this game, even if it was original Playstation vs. Playstation 2. The graphics in the game portions were, I thought, poorly done. After Tombraider showed us what Playstation graphics could be, this was a deep disappointment.

If you're expecting great graphics and visually interesting environments, look elsewhere. Perhaps the PC game is better. I can only say that I'm very glad I rented this before buying. Felt I saved myself a great deal of money.

Quite fun!

This is a fun game but sometimes if you just want to explore you have to go and do a quest. Some parts are quite hard like when you are doing the quest for Snape.It would be better if you could have some more help in the manuel. I would tell my friends to get this game though. You can't do what you want to do.
It would be better if you started at Diagon Alley because I would like to go to Gringotts.

graphics are horrible

This game is okay. But the graphics are so bad that some of the characters are frightening looking. Most of them are downright ugly. It's hardly difficult at all. Mostly you just go along and somehow get through the challenges by accident. I don't like the save book. Because there are places (like gringotts) where you have to do tedius tasks and there's no save spot so you can't just pick up where you left off. I've also played the PC version, which I highly recommend.

I hope you already know the storyline because they don't really give it to you. You don't even SEE prof. Quirrell hardly at all.

I got this game a while ago and have played it a couple of times, but I always get stuck on the flying lessons. It might be because I'm not an avid playstation player, but I can not get past it. I would only suggest this game for people who are really good at using the controller. I can't really give this game a good rating because I don't really know what it does.
