this game is really cool you get to fight at different places like japan or france or many other places you get to chose your teams and you get to earn wizard cards to earn your broomstick or team like you can have a nibus 2000 or 2001 or even a firebolt the higher you are the harder it gets but its really fun this is like the best sports game ever well thats my opinion but this is better then harry potter and the prisoner of askaban or chamber its really cool. i hope this review was helpful enough.

The fastest game ever

This game keeps you on your feet as you soar through the skies on a top of the line broom. You will soar through the crowds (but please don't crash into them).
You will play all posistions including seeker. I won't spoil any more fun so enter the magical world and be Harry Potter.

Misses Expectations

Being a Harry Potter fan, I was thrilled when I heard a Quidditch game was going to be made. However, the game proved weaker than I thought. In terms of game features, the Hogwarts section was in my mind flawless, but the World stage had a lot of problems. First off, only nine teams(one of which has to be unlocked) are featured. World Champion Ireland(see Goblet of Fire)is strangely absent. The actual World Cup is a ladder tournament(not so in the books,)takes way too long to complete, and is simple to win(Just score as many points as possible.) The gameplay is easy, even though your teamates seem to have no idea how to play the game as they move away from the quaffle when you throw it to them. With how much it takes to be able to finally ride the Firebolt, you're already an expert at it. Every match plays the same and you easily get bored with the commentary, music, players, moves, goal celebrations, snitch catching, stadiums, teams, special moves, and of course, the two seconds per game you get to be the seeker, keeper, or a beater. The speed of the players is also monotonous. I think this game swings and misses, and the only reason my overall score is two stars is I've been hoping for a Quidditch game. Note to EA: Please remake and improve this game!

Amazon, you gotta put this review on, because people have to know how bad this game actually is. Wow, all these people who rated this game 4 or 5 stars have some problems, no offense. Look, this is the worst game i have ever bought, ever. Once you get the hang of playing regular quidditch matches it gets boring because you do the same thing to score over and over again. I asked eight friends to rate all 14 of my games in order from best to worst and they all said harry potter was #14, no lie. CONCLUSION: IF YOU ARE THAT DESPERATE TO GET THIS GAME THEN BORROW IT. and if you really want to, then waste $20.......DO NOT BUY THIS GAME, DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!!!!

WOW!!!

WHAT A HOOT!!!
Cool format, great graphics. Fun game.
I think a very well done one at that. Very playable and addictive.

Not being a complete video game junkie, or caring much for sports games in general, I found this to be just wonderful! A great melding of entertainment, graphics, playability, fantasy, team play and fun!

QWC....One of the greatest games ever!

Yesterday,my parents bought me Quidditch World Cup. I hoped it was going to be cool. I tried it out and it was soooooo awsome! The controls were comfortable, it was not too challenging, yet no to easy.You could feel the exhilaration because it was just what I imagined in the books. It was life like too. When I tried catching the snitch, my heart beated faster. I definately recommend this for Harry Potter lovers!!

Very Cool Game

I'm a HUGE HP fan, and I have any and everything involved with the series. This game is fun, and is challenging depending on who you're playing. It involves so much strategy, too!

This is a great game - even for younger kids

My son got this game for Christmas 2003. We had rented it several times during the fall and my 6 year old got very good at the game very quickly. He has now gotten to the World Cup matches and selects this game over and over again for a quick match or extended play. I am more of a Scooby and traditional Harry gamer where the game requires a lot of searching and thought. This game is pure skill that can be developed quickly. Its a terrific game. We all play it.

SO much better than Quidditch in The Chamber of Secrets...

I love this game, playing as all the characters and not having to fly through those stupid rings. Being able to use special moves is fun too. I just bought it today and have only played as Gryffindor, but I can tell already that this was a perfect game to buy and I'm glad to have added it to my collection. Every HP fan should own this!

Not half bad for a lisised game

Okay lets get the facts stright here first... The harry potter movies suck. The books are the all time bomb (for grownups that means awsome) The games useally fowllow the foot steps of the book. But this game how ever is real good. You spend most of your time chaseing a quffle. This game is a bit easy for hardcore gamers but still worth renting. You may want to buy it for PC if your gamer is hardcore, beacuse I think it has online play (I could be wrong but check anyway. I been playing for almost 10 years.
