Harry Potter: Order of the Phoenix (Wii)

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is more or less a new take on the Harry Potter games. It sees you using your wand and moving it in different directions to cast spells. This is a new interesting way to play the game which adds a sense of realism to the game play. The game itself is quite simple and the controls are quite easy to master. You will have to go around the school to complete tasks. The most impressive aspect to this game is Hogwarts School. It is unbelievably realistic. Because it is so realistic it can take awhile to get from one place to another which becomes quite annoying but never the less is does add a sense of realism to ...  Read the complete review

Order of the Phoenix is the most immersive Harry Potter game yet. Being able to explore the whole of the Hogwarts castle and grounds without the console stopping to load is amazing. The in-game environment which you can walk round is massive, and this is probably the most impressive aspect of the experience. The graphics are very good - perhaps graphically one of Wii's top ten titles - albeit without the high-res textures of the PS3 and Xbox360 versions. This detailed representation of characters and environments does result in quite a bit of slowdown on various occasions however. I found the controls generally to be good, although some say they ...  Read the complete review

Harry Potter: Order of the Phoenix is one of the stranger games available on the Wii but that only adds to the appeal of it all really. While using the wand in the game to cast spells, the Wii remote is the best platform to do this - certainly more realistic than using a PlayStation or Xbox? The game consists of mini-tasks which involve the main character Harry Potter to run around, learning spells, collecting potions etc. and they all add up to the final encounter at the end of the game. In addition to this, the game has lots of prerecorded clips of Harry speaking to other characters. In this aspect, the game can become quite annoying and there is an awful lot of ...  Read the complete review
