Disappointed

I haven't explored the side material very much yet but there does seem to be a fair amount of material to go after. I was able to complete the main storyline over three evenings (equal to one full evening). The graphics weren't bad but the quality seemed inconsistent. I found the controls during broom flight a bit mushy but I'll have to see if there are any adjustments for that.
Overall the game is good but I thought it was over too quickly.

This is a fun game for people that like HP. my wife doesnt play video games at all but loves HP books and movies and she loved playing it... i still think the best part of this is the dueling. good game but i will not pay the 50 dollars for it...

I was so ecstatic, words can't even describe what I felt when I put the magical disc in my xbox 360 (which is now blessed due to this amazing game) I loved every minute of the game...from the menu to the ending credits. It's purely magical and so fun you will be playing with you and you're Potter-Obsessed friends for hours!
I was quite enchanted with all of its new features such as THE POTION MIXING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO GOOD! and not to mention the new story, also so great!
Bottom line is this new HP game is so great. HURRAY TO ALL OF US WIZARDS!
HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE IS FINALLY HERE!!!!!!!!!
