GC  Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets 3.0

THE GOOD:
  • Graphics
  • Plot
  • Gameplay

    THE BAD:

  • Loading
  • Fairly Simple Game

    SUMMARY:
    Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets has some pretty polished graphics. You'd better not be gawking at the scenery and the characters for too long though, because right when you least expect it, they'll throw an enemy in your way.

    Although the gameplay suffers in certain areas (it's overall a bit too simple), the Quidditch match is definitely a highlight of the game. It gives you quite a rush.

    But then, there's the loading factor. This basically slaughtered the original score I was going to give this game. ^^; This takes forreevverr to load even the smallest things. It's quite boring to sit and watch the game load; it reminds me of watching paint dry.

    Overall, this game's pretty fun with it's awesome graphics, plot and gameplay - but the loading? That's another story.

    THE GOOD:
    -Graphics are good
    -New Wizard Duels
    -Quidditch
    -Spells are better

    THE BAD:
    -Long waiting sequences
    -Easy Objectives
    -Sounds are so-so

    SUMMARY:
    This game is probably the worst Harry Potter game yet, though I'm not saying it's horrible. This game has very long screens on which you have to listen to someone talk. The loading screens aren't as long, but they are kinda long. The objectives are fairly easy, like the first one, is to knock over a bottle, the second is to walk two steps into a barn which is beside you, stuff like that. And the sounds, I neither liked or didn't like.

    The graphics are good though along with the Spells. Also Quidditch is back and it's a bit better. And New Wizard Duels are available.

    I wouldn't buy it, but you may find some fun in it.

    THE GOOD:
    Did you see the rating? What do you think?

    THE BAD:
    Everything, except for that tiny 1 part that's good.

    SUMMARY:
    This is the lowest rating I've ever given. I can't play through another game of this, when I've played some games 5 times...in a row. There is a hilarious glitch, though, which help give it a whopping 1 out of 5 points. The characters start turning in all kinds of directions during cut scenes. One was supposed to be doing something like talking to someone, but instead walked out of the room backwards. That was one of the funniest things I've ever seen. The characters seem to have seizures whenever they say a single thing. *sigh* I love it. This game is so boring. I liked fighting the basilisk, that's it. The rest was just so stupid. I can't even begin to explain it. I've never seen anyone move their arms as much as those characters when they talk. Their arms are just going all over the place, and I get really annoying British accents in my head. I don't know why it's so annoying in this; it just is. The graphics aren't that good, and what's with that nerdy little smile Harry always has? You think tormenting me with this game is funny, Harry? Huh? Do ya? Huh? Huh? Don't get this game, unless you want to waste 50 dollars to watch glitched characters. Actually, I meant to give it a .5, but the thing wouldn't let me for some reason. Oh, yeah, one more thing, it takes forever to load. Sometimes it freezes while you're loading, and you're not allowed to turn it off while you're loading, so what do you do? Buy a new GameCube? Maybe.

    THE GOOD:
    The only thing good about this game is that you can use spells, the graphics are okay, and the game is very very long if anyone likes to play a long time

    THE BAD:
    Everything from the lame spells that you can use, and the difficulties of this game. harry is so small, wouldn't you say? you have to open this to open that, and use that to open those, and then those open the main exit.

    SUMMARY:
    You get so easily killed, so be aware of the steps you take. seriously, harry is a menace in this game. i rather read the book than having this game. they talk funnily in their accents and whenever you get hit, you lose points. the maps doesn't help and then you get lost really easily, and get stuck after a while, you just want to quit. i would rather not get the game if i was you.

    This game relates to it's predecessor in two ways:
    -It is Harry Potter
    -It isn't all that good

    Neither of the Harry Potter games have been all that good, in my opinion. I haven't been impressed at all by either, partly because of the over-expanded media flow of Harry Potter. These games are too hyped up and have difficulty tying into the book and movie versions. Far too too limited as well, in my opinion. I really don't reccomend this game, or any Harry Potter game up until now.

    THE GOOD:
    The game's ok:
    the graphics are good, and the game's funny. You get new spells like "Skurge". You can finally play a decent Quidditch match agains Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin. The Diagon Alley with it's lots of shops. The 101 collectionable Chocolate Frog Cards!

    THE BAD:
    The game is loading all the time, and that sucks. ·_·
    It's too easy to beat the game.

    SUMMARY:
    This game's really ok, but it's got some PROs and some CONTRAs:

    GC  What A Disappointing Load O' Shite.. 1.0

    THE GOOD:
    The graphics were ok.

    THE BAD:
    The fact that it didn't follow the main story much, the difficulty, the time it takes to complete.

    SUMMARY:
    This was one of the worst games I've played. It seems a bit harsh, but what was special about this game? Nothing new. A bit of flying, some spells..nothing new. The main thing that annoys me is how easy the game was. It probably was made for much smaller children, but the makers should have known that there would be people analysing the game. It took me a day to complete it. A day. 24 hours. Kapeesh? The last boss(the snake) was a truly pathetic attempt to make the game look good. Where was the challenge?? A couple of sword zaps in its mouth and there you go. Done. Ł39.99 in the bin. My parents got it for me on Christmas Day, and I completed it on Boxing Day. What happened? I could not get over how easy it was. The quidditch matches were too repetative, just flying through hoops and going faster to catch a golden snitch. BOring..My little brother who is 6 managed to complete it in 4 days. That is saying something. That this game was not worth the money.

    THE GOOD:
    The game altogether, the plot, the storyline, and it's challeging and fun.

    THE BAD:
    There is nothing bad about this game

    SUMMARY:
    I kept thinking, this game is going to be stupid, when I saw it, but when I rented it just to try it out, I was thinking, boy was I wrong! I got hooked on this game, and you will too, so buy this game, it is definetly worth the money. Enjoy the game!

    Okay first off, great game. I don't know why everyone isn't making a big fuss over it. It's awesome I mean the graphics need some touching and the frame work is some times super slow but other than that is's cool. I love flying during you're second day at hogwarts you go to quiditch practice. After you complete it you get you're own nimbus 2000 you can race and fly around hogwarts. Learn new spells, so far it's easy enough hogwarts is pretty big.Just rent or but it.
