So who has this on order... even better, whos got it?  Cool
I downloaded the demo, for PC, and its pretty good.

Unlike the other 4 games where you are restricted etc and only can use the controller... well this time you use the mouse to control your wand! You left click and moe in in certain directions and you get the to move all over the place!  Cheesy I'd recommend you all having a go Smiley

I just bought the PS2 version from Amazon.
It says it will be here by the first couple of days of July  Grin

Well, we're having a good time with this!! We give it a thumbs up!!  Grin
The hardest thing I'm... I mean the kids  Wink are have difficulty with is remembering
which joystick movement does which spell. But it's helpful that there is a screen to go to in the game to refresh or memory!!  Smiley

I got this game on the 26th for the PS3 and LOVE it.  The graphics are great on the PS3 version and Hogwarts is HUGE.  I mean HUGE.  I haven't even seen half of the place yet.  Too busy finding mini-games to play.

My thumb is getting great excersize doing all the spells since you use the right analog control to motion your spells...or, the PS3 also uses the controller to cast spells, as it too is motion censored (like the Wii, but not the same) as well.  I just don't want to be bothered with that so I turned that feature off and stuck with the analog stick instead.

The camera angles in the game are just okay. I would like to be able to turn them any which way I please, but can't.  It just takes some getting used to.  Other than that, I definitely recommend this game for any HP fan. Love it.

Oh, and 22 of the voice actors are the actual cast members from the movie.  This includes, Ron, Sirius, Cho, Fred, George, Tonks, Draco, Grabbe, Goyle and more. Ron and Hermione are different voice actors though Sad

I have it for the Wii and it's fantasic!  I got a Wii from my husband for my birthday just so I could play this game.  If you don't see it at your local Wal Mart, be sure to ASK!  I didn't see it at our either, but they had them lined up on the very bottom shelf (I guess they didn't have a slot for them)  So check before you are disappointed. 
The only thing I don't like about this game is that Ron and Hermione are all up in my personal bubble everytime I change directions!  They are in the way mostly when I'm going up & down the stairs.

Ooh. So it's good on the Wii... that settles it then.

(P.S. I don't rate the DS version... steer clear)
