NOT WORTH BUCKS

This game is ok but the controls are horrible! The best part is throwing gnomes. Like the first game it is way to easy. I dont even own it and I'm already in the forest looking for the spiders. Prof. Lockhart looks like someone hit him with a can opener. Doby looks like a rat. Colin Creevey is tiny, and Ginny Weasley looks like a pig. Harry FINNALY TALKS. Moaning Myrtle and Peeves are annoying. Myrtle chucks toilet pipes at you for some odd reason. Peeves also steals Rons present to Nick. You get to play as Goyle but he is so annoying you cant stand yourself. One of the only cool things about this game is hogwarts seems to have doubled in size. If I were you id wait to buy it untill the price drops. Dramatically.

Harry potter is cool or should i say it is magical cause you must buy it.It is the best better than the last one this is more exiting,adventerous,magicalistic,faster and funnier so buy it.It will make your magic spells real and you can also buy an harry potter box it has a wand and some fantastic tricks and spells buy it from Toysrus,toymaster,james selby and argos and becarefull when your playing the game because there are things that you have never seen before like ghosts,real snakes,weasels and birds but harrys ablities will save you and you can also drive the weasleys family car and also remember you are brave like a lion because you are in griffindor they are lions.

The game was a little easy, but it was really fun! It can get a little boring when your stuck on a part. Who ever thinks this game is totaly boring probily never played it. Also it is a little hard in some parts. It follows the book and movie really good with a little twist of its own.The price may be high but wait till it goes down a little. But it is way better than the first one. For example Quidditch is alot better. You have more gaming and space than the first one. The knomes swing is really cool! Buy this game to find out!

How I feel about this game.

The game is quite cool to me ! I have completed the first harry potter game and craving for more after that , and finally my dream come true! just a few comment to the 'Harry Potter and the camber of secrets' game is that the sound of harry potter is very weird, it sounds like a sisi to me. The good thing is that they added a few more game in it to make it more intresting like " the wizard duel , race record for you to broke while you head for lesson, the are grades " A ,B , C " too to your performance in class( SO IT IS NOT SO BORING LIKE THE FIRST ONE).
Of all ...... the best part is the quidditch match ! you must race against your rival malfoy and knock him down before you can continuce to catch the snitch. The are also many thing on the way to slow you down and don't forget the budlger behind you. SO GET IT NOW PEOPLE......... SEE YOU IN HOGWARTS.....

Good Game

MANY things to do and Find

I recently finished Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets story line and I'm still working to find all it's secrets. This game ,like the first, has many things for you to do. The gameplay also changes so your not always doing the same old thing. After you beat the story part of the game their are many things you still can do. For example dueling the masters of the school by collecting witchs and wizards cards. If you collect enough cards you can open a secret door. I think COS (Chamber of Secrets) has a very good replay factor because their are so many different things to do. This has already been said but it's worth saying again. QUIDDITCH IS WAY BETTER THAN BEFORE! The only reason i gave it 4 stars out of 5 is because their should be more boss's.

The New Auto Save is the Bomb!

This game is probably a tad easier and more fun than the first HP game for PS. The new auto save is awesome. In the menu (well, actually it will give you an option when you start playing), you can choose if you want Auto Save on or off. Auto Save saves the game automatically after any challenging task or certain point, rather than saving only a few times after something simple, and then never being able to save until eons after something extremely challenging.

Anyway, the game itself is really cool. There are the basic places and such as the first game, but new characters (Dobby, Gilderoy Lockhart, the basilisk, Ginny Weasley, Mr. Lucius Malfoy, and Cornelius Fudge, etc.)

Harry must go through a series of events at Hogwarts and several tasks to collect items to create the Polyjuice Potion, collecting Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans for Fred and George, and so forth.

The game is... how should I say... easy and challenging at the same time. To make it clear, you would be doing something challenging, but in an easy way. This game, in my opinion, is not as hard as the first game. You can return to Quidditch practices any time you feel the need to practice (a letter won't arrive saying you NEED to practice).

The gameplay has new challenging battles and the like. You must steer the Ford Anglia (better known as the flying car) ahead of the Hogwarts Express train to make it to Hogwarts (which I found very similar to the mine cart journey in the first HP game), you have to slide down the chimney after using the Floo Powder (you go extremely fast), you have to dodge away from the rogue Bludger at the Quidditch match, go to your classes and learn new spells and charms, you have to collect the Pixies that Lockhart sets off, and there are many more exciting parts and pieces to this delightful game.

The graphics and sound are very realistic. And when I mean challenging at times, I mean that you can get head aches from the game, so I wouldn't try to hard.

All in all, this game is truly one of my faves!! =)

This games follows the book version more closely than the movie. Aside from solving the Chamber of Secrets puzzle, you can involve yourself in collecting famous wizard and witches cards, look for other hidden passages and ride around the castle rooftops on your broom. The difficulty is about a "medium"; easy enough to solve and win over but challenging and inventive enough to keep from getting bored. One complaint: maneuvering Harry to stand exactly where you want him to (required in a handful of critical moments during the game) is a nuisance.

Highly recommended for hopeless HP fanatics (like myself) and lovers of RPGing (ditto).

Great game, but rather short

All in all, I loved the game HP and the CoS. It was fun and not so difficult that you get frustrated enough to throw the controller at the screen, while at the same time not so easy that you felt you were playing something for five-year-olds. However, it was pretty short. I finished the game in one day, in about twelve hours. I've seen a lot shorter games, but I think they could have added more and made it longer. It only took me that long to get one hundred percent completion, including accessing the Founder's Tower--the contents of which, I must say, were rather pointless and disappointing--with no help from the internet or friends. I feel it necessary to add that I am no expert--I'm no more than mediocre.

My favorite parts:

Fighting Aragog
Looking for Wizard Cards
Fighting the Basilisk (which, in contrast to Quirrel of SS, was overly easy)
Dueling

My advice to the makers:

Make the next game a little longer, a tad bit more challenging, but not overly so, and make the Duelling a side game for two players so that you can challenge one another. That would be wicked!
