Harry Potter Order Of The Phoenix (PS3)

I thought the first Harry Potter game was great fun but since then they have gotten worse and worse, but is this more of the same? The game is much better with some great graphics that make you feel like you are really there. This makes it really fun and exciting to play. You will play through the events of the book and complete levels to gain spells. There are lots of battles which are great and plenty against the bullies and at the end you have to defeat the dark lord. The annimation during the battles are great and still look good today. It is also a little different as you can use the Sixaxis to wave your wand! This adds something extra ...  Read the complete review

This feeling is mainly due to the superb graphics and textures that are very ...  Read the complete review

Ok, the first thing I will admit is how much I enjoy Harry Potter, and how good the first 3 games were, and how much of a disappointment the 4th game was, so naturally I was excited when I saw the 5th game was to be a free roaming environment, with an entirely explorable Hogwarts, and I was incredibly looking forward to it. This only made me even more disappointed upon playing it. The castle within the game is huge, and was fun to explore for a little while.
