When we first got this game, we were all impressed. It was fun and looked nice. As some reviews have stated, it is usually very clear what you are supposed to do at each stage of the game. In an effort to not have the game be too simple, EA seems to have decided to make the controls just twitchy enough so it takes you potentially dozens of tries to accomplish certain tasks. All in all it is not an enjoyable game for us. The "challenges" are challenging in an annoying not entertaining way. In the end, I don't reccomend this game at all.

I love this game. I definitely recommend this game for others.I like it because I am a huge harry potter fan!The only down side for me is it is difficult to get past the guy with the spell that ties you up.

This was a good game but i think it would have been better if you could say your own things and fight the teachers and stuff!! But anyways this is a great game and i like the graphics and all the spells and stuff but i just can't get enough of those bertie botts beans to buy some trick stuff from the trick store. This game is one of the better games for x box and i reccomened that you buy it!!

Its that time again and harry potter is going back to hogwarts. THis is definetly the better out of the two HP video games. the levels are a good length and it isn't to hard. and it isn't just:go to charms trace this. its much better. i've only rented it so i didnt get that far but i definetly had a good time playing. the thing i didnt like is how you have room for 3 spells meaning at least once every level you have to go to your rememberall and switch spells. besides that its a good game even if you think its stupid.

not worth it

rent it see how you like it, i would say that its not worth the money. The game has nice graphics but thats about it. The gameplay is simple but the camera is always off slightly making Harry hard to control, it is next to nothing like the book, don't expect it to be like the book or the movie the game is completley different. it's also far to easy, the game tells you exactly what to do. I would recommend the game for younger gamers 6-13.

Harry Potter, a great game!!!

I loved this game.The pictures were very cool.Even though it is a very short game, you will be hooked on it.If you love Harry Potter you got to play this game.In this game you go to de-knoming knomes, to fighting the big snake.You get to play Quidditch, that was soooooo much fun!Trust me, if you love Harry Potter, you will love this so much.

I bought this game for PC right around the time it came out. I did not have an Xbox at the time. It was really fun on PC with lots of time to explore the castle, collect beans, play Quidditch, and trade beans for different items, not to mention learning magic.

I liked this game so much that when I got an Xbox 360 I decided to get this game for it as well.

I was very excited and the game was fun at first. It did have a recurring problem though, where the the picture moved very slow but the audio moved at regular speed. But it was really no big deal and I kept playing the game. The environment around the school was very cool and it was fun exploring the castle.

Then it started getting really challenging when you would sneak out at night or do a "Spell book challenge." Like many people have said before, the camera angles do not do anything to help you jump in the right direction. This led to falling off of a platform and losing all of the beans I might have been carrying. It was extremely frustrating. Also books, ghosts, and flying jars for some reason attack you, causing you to drop your beans. The fire crabs get extremely annoying too.

Overall I was not too impressed. At times it was fun but mostly just frustrating. To be honest, I would much rather play the game on PC. There is so much more to do and it is so much more fun.
