Too many side quests that had nothing to do with the story, when will one come out when the story is involved in every quest? When will we be able to visit Hogsmeade? It was ok, but the voices were obvious fakes, the camera angles were pretty bad and the audio was faulty. That being said, it is Harry Potter and it was freaking sweet to explore the castle, learn about the other things not in the movies. I would recommend it, also think about getting the Quidditch game, thats pretty sweet too.

Great area to explore!

The first thing you notice in this game (if you've played the previous two), is the giant leap EA has made in the graphics. The graphics in SS and Cos were a little less realistic, also, they were the kind of game were you can sometimes see through the characters and there are just a whole lot of glitches. Not in this. In "Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban" the game, there are also A LOT, and I mean "A LOT" of places to explore! It's the first time we've actually seen Hogwarts. But if the only reason you want this game is to see Hogwarts, I'd recommend Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix.

great, but could be... better?

I loved the game. My only gripe is that is was quick and easy. OK, so I have 2 gripes. Yeah, the title is 'Harry Potter' but the second part is 'the prisoner of azkaban'... who is Sirus. You really should have been able to play Sirus as well, or he should have been a much more integral part of this game. Over all though, it was really great.

HARRY POTTER GAME FOR XBOX

The game is the world of Harry Potter as seen in the films but expands upon all those themes with new adventures. Sound effects and graphics are good and it is fast paced for a 7 year old.

Excellent! True to the story and very fun.

Very true to the story. This game started out rather boring, especially if you've already played the other games in the series, but it just keeps getting better. Don't buy it if you have the game on PS2, either, it's exactly the same, but it's a harder game than the second and easier than the first. You could almost say that it was a happy medium. Being a Harry Potter fanatic, myself, it was rather exciting to finally be able to play a game on my first console. Being almost sompletely true to the book made it all the better. Play it!

Not a good choice

I rented this game, my almost 4 year old son wanted it so I decided we'd rent it first and try it. It was too scary to play around him. I even got a little creeped out by the dementors sucking Harry Potters soul out of his body.
If you have small children don't buy this game.

Best game ever!!!!

This is the most amazing Xbox game ever!!! I just got it yesterday and I beat it in 1 day!!! I couldnt stop!!!

Things that make this game so great...

1. Exploring Hogwarts Grounds and flying on Buckbeak! Also their are 3 different seasons...fall with rain...Winter with beutiful snow and great winter music...and spring! The grounds are huge! Its amazing! You can even run around the two courtyards from the movies! On buckbeak, you can take off, and land anywhere on the grounds!

2. Being Harry Ron and Hermione!

3. The graphics are amazing, much better then the first two games! Harry Ron and Hermione dont look stupid like they did in the first 2 games!

4. The music is great...the same great music from the first 2 plus new great music!

OK...their are many more great things about this game that I could be here all day...get this game! Dont even think about it just get it...you will thank me!

UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm a big Harry Potter fan, I've read all the books, I have the 2nd gaem on the PC, and I have the 3rd HP game for XBox. One bad thing.......I don't have my Xbox yet!! IT is killing me cause I got ot play it just a little bit and I want to play it some more. The graphics are unbelievable. The spells, game-play, graphics, and depth have all improved. It is so incredibly awesome. Buy it now!

thank goodness - no Quidditch

OK, maybe we're just not good at Quidditch, but for me, my husband, and our 8 yo son, Quidditch was always the worst part of the games - hard to get through, just really frustrating. So, just to give another viewpoint, we were very glad that there is no Quidditch in POA.
