| Summary: Don't need to like Potter to try this one!
75
Nice port of the film Harry Potter Goblet of Fire with 3 playable characters always working together to complete tasks. The teamwork is actually a nice part of the game mechanics, but it would be nice to play 3 player multiplayer on a single screen a la LOTR III for PSII.
Design is fairly straightforward and the gameplay is intuitive although the controls could be a little more sensitive. Try using both analog stick and D-pad to decide which is superior. I actually preferred D-pad.
Music is a key part of the film series and is very good here with nice sound effects for most of the actions but certain sounds like footsteps could've been better.
Graphics are decent but nothing extraordinary. Like many EA titles the graphics are good enough to get the job done (LOTR III) but nothing eye popping. FMV scenes are excellent and animated beautifully
The gameplay is a bit of a letdown. Walk around zapping creatures collecting jumping beans for magic power and moving around objects. Thats about it along w/ customizing 3 power cards in between stages.
The game is fun at first but could be too repetitive for some. The value isn't as high as say Lord of the Rings III which could be played over and over after finishing the game, but it should be a good rental for action/adventure fans and decent purchase for Harry Potter fans.
Gameplay - 73
Music - 85
Graphics - 70
Fun Factor- 75
Value- 50
Overall - 75
Good but not more than a rental for most.

why does this board attract so many homophobic 9 yr olds?!
the game is weird. production is really nice, sounds, music and graphics are great. But gameplay is pretty boring and repetitive. I'm really dissapointed so far, but it supposedly gets better the further you get.

This game's only for the crazed Harry Pothead fangirls(/boys?) My girlfriend is crazy about the game series, which is one of the few games she plays (the list includes The Sims (1,2, etc) and Spyro).

I actually think that the movies take away from the book, but I definitly still like them.

definetly, the movies always screw things up

I think that the movies have been true to this series so far. I've seen worse movies based on books. Fahenheit 451. Wow, talk about a secret Nazi movie if I've ever seen one.
