2.0 out of 5 stars Mac OS 9 Users Beware, August 8, 2003

My five year old son and I played "Sorcerer's Stone" together and loved it. I ordered "Chamber of Secrets" despite the posted comments about its "bugginess". Once we loaded it and gave it plenty of memory the game ran perfectly until...I estimate about a third of the way through, as we shifted from one "challenge trial" to another, the screen went irrevocably black, which in effect ended the game. I called Aspyr and the tech knew just what had happened as all players who are running OS 9 experience this. He told me that they are working on a patch for this problem but he doesn't know when it will be available. We'll probably wait for the patch as we loved the first third (some real improvements over "Sorcerer's Stone). Hadn't even gotten to the first Quidditch match.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good fun with a glitch, May 1, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (CD-ROM)

The game is great...if you can get it to play. Running the game with OS 9.2.2 their is a glitch that the manufacture (Aspyr) has yet to make a fix for. They say a patch is coming but for the mean time you can only play up through Prof. Flitwick's challange. That aside this game seems much more elaborate and better developed than the first one.

4.0 out of 5 stars Worked well for us under OSX, November 10, 2004

= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (CD-ROM)

We bought HPCoS with some trepidation over the problems people had with buggy software. I didn't even try to run it under OS9, but under OSX 10.2 we had no particular problems. Running on a G3/300 and a G5/2000 both worked well, though the G3 was pretty darn painful. The voices ran faster than the animation because the Rage 128 card wasn't up to the task. My 5 year old loved it and even managed to do most of it on his own (minus some of the scarier parts).
