Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (PS2)

The characters are so cool, in a hypothetical way of course. The graphics are so real. I love it.

I played this for hours and hours, but then I had to break for sleep and such. There really aren't enough hours in the day.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban - This is the easiest game Ive ever been on. It took me about a year to complete the second one, and in comparison it took 2 days to do this one. You can't even play Quidditch; you have to fly on a Hippogriff instead.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban - This the best Harry Potter game ever brought out. It is way better than the second or first. When I first considered purchasing the game I was a little wary about the character changing as I felt it might have been as annoying as Sonic Heroes where you are constantly constantly changing. But when I got the game I found that the character changing was dead simple and not that often actually used unless you need certain spells.

The graphics on this game are really impressive and I love the way that the cloaks flare out when you run unlike other Harry Potter games where the cloaks are stapled to thier legs! The grand staircase is brilliant and it really makes you feel like you're in Hogwarts complete with moving stairs which are really cool. The Hogwarts' gounds are really huge and well well worth exploring. They are nearlly exactly the same as the third movie. With the clock tower and the rickety enclosed bridge which I love the sound of as you run across. If you can't be bothered to run around the grounds then simply take Buckbeak for a fly and you can see the magnificent view of Hogwarts that actually looks like in the movie with the lake and everything!

The only downfall of this game is that it is quite short and easy to complete but it has some really fun eyetoy games! In my opinion, it's better being easy than too hard, I think it rather annoying if you're playing a game that is totally impossible to complete anyway. Also, if you're meant to be going somewhere, even if you're in the right direction and everything, the characters keep on saying annoying phrases over and over again like, "Shouldn't we be there by now?" and "What are we hanging around here for?", you might find yourself shouting at the screen a few times. Some people say it's a downfall not having Quidditch, which could have been added to give the game a longer run, but I'm not that bothered to be honest.

Overall, this a really excellent game and don't pay attention to anyone who says it's not. Yes, this isn't the game for a really excellent game player but what do you expect? It is Harry Potter, a kids' book! It says it says it's suitable for ages 3 and up, but I reckon maybe 9 and up would be a better age for the gameplay which can get quite tricky at times. This game is definitely worth buying and I'd recommend it to anyone except silly people who reckon its not very good when it's brilliant. (Get your head checked!)

I think The Prisoner of Azkaban will be even better than the first two Harry Potter games, most because you get to play MULTIPLAYER!! And then I've read a review somewhere stating the special key abilities of all the characters; Harry is light and fast so can therefore leap over great distances. He is also a good Quidditch player (well, duh! lol). Ron isn't that great at magic spells, but he can sense hidden places when he is near them. He can also cast the Lumos spell, which effect I presume you know. Hermione, is smaller than the boys, and can sneak behind walls and stuff that Harry and Ron couldn't possibly do. She can also freeze creatures and objects, transfigure books into mice and statues into dragons. Sounds really cool to me! And then there's the Marauders Map. And really cool cards, too. I can't wait to get it!
