Rating:  - Cool Game!
I am not a huge Harry Potter fan, but the franchise is well known and everyone loved the movies. But, how about a video game? I really like video games and this Qudditch game rocks. You can play on Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff, and Ravenclaw. Before the games you have training. Mostly to do with seekers or chasers. The game of course takes place in a great array of locations, such as the stadiums and fields and characters from the series are in this game as well. The game is 5 stars because ... Read More
Rating:  - Not Quite Quidditch
I was very excited to see that EA was creating a "Quidditch World Cup" game. I'm a huge fan of their real sports titles, so I expected this one to be very good. J.K. Rowling has clearly defined the ins and outs of this imaginary game played on broomsticks in her books, and it seems like it would be a wonderful game to play if it were real. With that said, I'd love to give this game a four or five star rating, but I have to say that it only deserves three. Why? For many of the same reasons that ... Read More
Rating:  - Misses Expectations
Being a Harry Potter fan, I was thrilled when I heard a Quidditch game was going to be made. However, the game proved weaker than I thought. In terms of game features, the Hogwarts section was in my mind flawless, but the World stage had a lot of problems. First off, only nine teams(one of which has to be unlocked) are featured. World Champion Ireland(see Goblet of Fire)is strangely absent. The actual World Cup is a ladder tournament(not so in the books,)takes way too long to complete, and is ... Read More
Rating:  - The Real Quidditch Facts
Amazon, you gotta put this review on, because people have to know how bad this game actually is. Wow, all these people who rated this game 4 or 5 stars have some problems, no offense. Look, this is the worst game i have ever bought, ever. Once you get the hang of playing regular quidditch matches it gets boring because you do the same thing to score over and over again. I asked eight friends to rate all 14 of my games in order from best to worst and they all said harry potter was #14, no lie. CONCLUSION: ... Read More
Rating: - Very intoxicating
I've played alot of video games and but there isn't one even close to Quidditch. It's not just playing in a quidditch match either. There are different challenges to complete that help make you a better player and gives you cards to get higher levels of play. I love the aspect that you can play all players. From watching the movie I thought the only interesting player was the seeker, but now I know that I would definately be a beater, but a chaser is very fun too. There are tons of places to play and every ... Read More
