5.0 out of 5 stars Harry Potter Does it Again!!, May 15, 2003

"brazilgamer_tacomawa" (Tacoma, WA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Harry Potter & the Chamber of Secrets (Game Cartridge)

In my opinion, Harry Potter is the best book series I have ever read in my whole life. The game I thought would be bad because that's how it usually is with games based on movies. But this is just terrific! Here's how I rated it:

Graphics 4.5/5

These graphics aren't so great, but are excellent for a GBC game. In a lot of games, It's just a bunch of people walking around. In this, you can see onther things like, stirring cauldrons, wand fights, and even throwing up slugs!

Sound 3/5

The sound in this game is pretty good. But, the music can occasianaly squeak. Somtimes an annoying jingle can also get stuck in your head.

Gameplay 5/5

The gameplay in this is excellent!! You can fly a car, fight with toasters, watch Dobby bang his head on walls, challenge Professor Flitwick, throw gnomes, visit Hagrid, go bowling, shop in Diagon Alley, catch pixies and many other things that make this game exciting.

Violence Rate 2/5

I myself don't like violence. I think it is a creul thing.But, I mainly made this section for worrying mothers. Don't worry! The only violence is killing the Basilisk near the end. Even that isn't that violent. The basilisk just falls down when it dies. NO BLOOD. When you fight other things, instead of dying, they just run away.

Replay Value 5/5

I have already beaten this game twice and I still play it very frequently. The nonstopping fun makes you want to play it 24/7! Even if you don't like Harry Potter, you will love this game!!

Buy It. Trust Me. This game is worth it!

Sincerely,
Jeffrey Alan Cote'

This review is from: Harry Potter & the Chamber of Secrets (Game Cartridge)

i saw this game on sale for seven dollars at a local going-out-of-business sale recently, and as a closet harry potter fanatic, i thought i'd pick it up and be mildly amused for an hour or two. little did i know i'd still be playing this underrated gem months later.

i was surprised at the depth, humour and charm this game offers. lets face it, most licensed games are utterly stinky, but EA has really outdone themselves here. "harry potter" is an engaging, challenging RPG simple enough for younger gamers and witty enough for older ones as well.
