Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

I had a great time playing this game. It is a good game and it is realy like the main history of the movie with the same title Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. The main goal is collect beans and explore through the castle and forest and make spells like "Galinhus" and "Wingardium Leviosa" to destroy creatures to progress in the game. When we are exploring we can play in a two player mode and we can choose between Harry, Ron and Hermione. The only time when is need just one player we need to play with Harry and was during the levels of the tasks of the tournment. I really likes the last level that was a final battle with Lord Voldmort and he says to Harry: "Now you dont have your mother to save you" and "I want to see the lights abandonad your eyes" but Harry wins in the last moment.

This it's a great game for it's genre.

I like what the EA has done with the action of the game and the graphics. Despite the fact that it's short,this game really introduces you in the actual story of the film and it's a good thing that there are not any other 'mishions' but the the ones related to the story (i'm referring to the 'exploring' that was in the other games the EA did for Harry Potter,the bean bonus 'thing' was making the game playable just for kids under 10 ).

It's true that the last sequels of the Harry Potter movie had become darker and more complex leading to a much enjoyable movie for all ages, and the great thing of this game it's that it follows the exact transformation that it's happening to the movie leading perhaps to much complex and better games that can follow the story maybe more accurate.(The game it's so much enjoyable when it follows the story.)

I'm sorry to say that the end of it had 'something missing'.

I know for many will seem that playing just with keyboard takes away the performance of the game, but i was pleasantly surprised of how this was improving the action scenes of the game.I'd like to say that the camera view of the hole game makes it more exciting giving the player another vision of the game itself(a better one).

In conclusion : Enjoy!!

This is the worst game of HP so far.

Sure they tried to do something different: so bye-bye the platforms and now time for exploration and fights. Next, the graphics are much improved this time and look really much like a movie. In addition, they put some role playing cards with stills from the movie, which is great because you don't see much of this in the first three games.

But, unfortunately, the magic of HP ends here: What are the main three levels of the game? roofs of Hoggwarts (more for Batman), forbidden forest and the garden of herbology (more for Swampthing).

There, you keep stumbling against dull monsters (salamanders, big wasps, bottom on fire). They even appear on the key moments and that's a crap because you can't say anymore it's an adaptation! Your goal is to collect shields (I hate this chores list) and if you know that there are 10 shields located in each level, you don't know how many you have collected in each one and each time you got one, you start over! So this game becomes quickly an irritating maze!

The only moments of fun are the triwizard tournament and the fight against Voldemort but to play them, I had to download a completed saved game! Even then, you got those damned clock challenge (it is not Olympic games and I am not motivated for Gold, Silver, Bronze), the cinematics are one poor picture that is zoomed circularly to give some flow.

Well, a great disappointment! Ava kadreva !

I hope EA Games returns to the previous Harry Potter gaming style when releasing ORDER OF THE PHOENIX. I know, characters are no longer kids, obviously the styling must evolve to a less naive approach... but that's no excuse for loosing the Harry Potter charming. Even Jeremy Soule's music was uninspired in GOB. We want to explore Hagworths again. Challenges. Cooperative gaming must not be a limitation but an option (the PC version of Prisoner of Azkhaban was OK... I rather play alone but if cooperative playing is a "must", give at least the option to play on our own). Remember that Harry Potter games are ACTION ADVENTURE games, not this incoherent and discontinuous collage of boring mini-games. And for the PC user's sake... MOUSE SUPPORT!

I loved the first game, really like the 2nd & 3rd, but I hated this crappy piece of garbage! The first 3 games have you basically following Harry's story as you explore Hogwarts, learn spells, and get to know your fellow students. Unfortunately EA completely changed up this game & lost the plot altogether. I never made it to the tri-wizard tournament as I couldn't get past all the monsters you constantly have to fight within the school.
