Product Description

Platform: PC

From the Manufacturer

Take to the air in the first game that allows players to fully experience the magical speed, power, and competition of Quidditch, the favorite sport of witches and wizards, in the Harry Potter: Quidditch World Cup game.

For the first time, gamers will experience the full complexity and exciting challenge of Quidditch, which involves two teams of seven players who fly on broomsticks, playing four balls simultaneously. Players will control every position on their team, including three Chasers who try to score with the Quaffle, two Beaters who control the dangerous Bludgers, the Keeper who protects the goal, and the Seeker who chases the elusive Golden Snitch that must be caught to end the match.

Starting with any one of the four Hogwarts house teams--including Harry Potter's Gryffindor--players learn Quidditch basics with five original challenges and the Hogwarts House Cup competition. Once completed, players can enter the Quidditch World Cup, choosing from a range of international teams including the USA, England, France, Germany, the Nordic Team, Japan, Spain, Australia, and Bulgaria--featuring Viktor Krum. Each national team sports its own Quidditch gear, has a unique stadium environment, and different strengths that lend depth and strategy, especially when two gamers face off in two-player competition for the first time ever in a Harry Potter video game.



Product Description

Harry Potter: Quidditch World Cup brings you the complexity and challenge of the favorite sport in Harry Potter's world! The first multiplayer Harry Potter experience, where two players can play head-to-head

5.0 out of 5 stars As good as any EA sports game, November 1, 2003
By Jonathan (Florida) - See all my reviews
You start off picking one of the four houses. You can easily switch from house to house though. Your goal is to complete practice challenges that will help you build skills to become a real tough competitor. I gained these skills and won the house cup with Ravenclaw and then with Hufflepuff.

After you win the cup, you can pick an International team to play against other countries. Most matches are about 30 minutes long, although I just played a two and a half hour match against England and won by over 1500 points. I highly recommend this game to anyone who wants a real challenge.

The key to doing well in this game, is to complete as many practice challenges as possible. Doing this will unlock more skills, games, special arenas, and better brooms.

This game introduces many popular characters from the books (Luto Bagman, Viktor Krumm, and several others found in "Quidditch Through the Ages" or the first 5 books).

3.0 out of 5 stars Fun for Potter Fans, November 9, 2003
By A Customer
Keep in mind I am a 26 yr. old avid gamer. So my review will be diffrent than others. But I am also a Harry Potter FAN!!! I have fun with the game.

Pros: If you like Potter and think Quidditch is the coolest idea in books, then stop reading and go buy the game now.
EA made the game, One of the top game designers, especially for sports. Music is fitting, VERY colorful and the look is captured well. It is fun (most important part of a game), I do enjoy playing. Graphics are above average, character models are ok and try to reproduce the actors (a nice touch!)

Cons: The game should be 3D and I should be able to control EVERY (up and down)direction. No Online play (come on this should be a staple now!) for 2 player you must share the keyboard (dumb), also, coming from EA, it should have had a build a character mode. Some type of customization. Like others before me said, the game had potential. Commentary is VERY repetitive. Cut scenes are nice but not needed. Need more options to control visuals, no High Definition Resolution. No adjust Difficulties!!! Too easy. Heard it gets harder but so far I win games like a 1,350 - 10 score. Menus could be WAY nicer, with mouse control and not using keys. Maybe these will be fixed in updates or a sequel! I hope! Due to the easy AI, that can hinder replay value :-(

It is targeted for the younger audience but most fans of Potter I know of are in the 20-35 range.

Have Fun!!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Game!, January 13, 2004
A Kid's Review
First of all, this game is great (as the title of my reveiw implys) for both fans of the Harry Potter book/movie/video game series and sports fans alike. Good things first--

... this is an abselutely great game with 14 beautiful environments. These places are the national Quidditch Stadiums (which include, but are not limited to, France, Germany, Bulgaria, England, the USA, Japan and Australia) the Hogwarts stadium, and Queerditch Marsh (the birthplace of Quidditch, for those of you didn't know).

The plot of the game is suprisingly clever for a sports simulation-game; you start off at Hogwarts as one of the four Hogwarts Houses where you promptly learn how to play under the guise of "Quidditch Training." (By the way, do not be put of by the first chaser's challenge, it is one of the hardest in my opinion and I have abselutely no idea why EA Games chose to put it first). After you complete your training (but don't feel put off if you don't pass all of them, you'll do fine in a game as long as you have a basic understading of the different positions and how to play them) you can go on to playing games against the other houses, and I don't men those "only Seeker" games like in the other Harry Potter games, in this you play as all the players, with the exeption of the Keeper. If you winn at least one game against every house and/or manage to keep your point total up you could win the Hogwarts Quidditch Cup and, in addition, tickets to all of the games in the World Cup where you promptly go on to choose a team to support (play as) all through the World Cup.

Let me tell you, the graphics are incredible! The charecters, the Stadiums (Queerditch in particular.) I just can't put their greatness into words!

It is amazing how "right" the game has it. Even the names of the Hogwarts Quidditch players are correct, as are the rules of Quidditch and the way it is played.

All right now the Cons--

1. You can't play as Ireland and they won the Cup in Harry potter and the Goblet of Fire!

2. There is no way to change the difficulty, and after a while I started to want a harder game.

3. I thought that it would be kind of cool to see the evolution of Quidditch, from Chasers only on up. Needless to say, the game does not include this.

But dispite the cons, this game is pure fun in a pretty package, with it biased and hillariuos comentating, great gameplay and amazing graphics.

See you next time!

P.S I forgot to mention, I do not recomend this game for children under 8 or 9 years old for the games can be confusing and needlessle frusterating for these young and blooming gamers.
