"Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets ..." , posted Sun 22 Dec 18:06

No,I'm not talking about the movie . It's not about the book,either : this topic is about the games . I'm not sure if you know this,but HPatCoS is one of the greatest multiplatform games : it's on nothing less than 7 consoles (PlayStation 2,GameCube,Xbox,Game Boy Advance,Game Boy Color,PlayStation (1) and PC) ! And the cool thing is that each version is different from all the others . The only versions which are a little similar are the ones from PS2,GC,Xbox and PSX,but even those havetheir differences :
- PS2 : dark graphics,dark colors,but it has the exclusive ability to explore Hogwarts flying in your Nimbus 2000
- GC : good colors and an exclusive area : the Gringotts Bank (you need to connect it to the GBA version,though)
- Xbox : the best graphics of all . Just it .
- PSX : poor graphics (hey,it's an old console) and probably different missions,but still a great game
Well,I couldn't see all the versions,but I played the GC one (the best one for beginners) . Here are my opinions :
The controls are very good,very easy to play . Somehow,the controls are similar to N64's Ocarina Of Time,but not identical .
The graphics are amazing ! Unfortunately,I didn't reach the stage where he arrives at Hogwarts . It's probably incredible to see it . Oh,well ...
One of the most impressive things is the great quality of the voice actors' work . You really feel like watching a Harry Potter movie,but now YOU CONTROL HARRY !
The graphics are great . Not so impressive if you've already seen Metroid Prime or Deadly Alliance,but they are still very good . The loadings are quite boring,though .
Overall,I'd judge :

Graphics : 8 out of 10
Sound : 9,5 out of 10
Playability/Controls : 10 out of 10
Loading time : 7 out of 10
Replay value : 10 out of 10 (I wanna play it again SO MUCH !!!)
Fun factor : 9,5 out of 10

Overall,my only complaints are about the loading time and the short time that we're allowed to play on the game store in my city . If you have the chance to play any version of it,DO IT,and you won't regret . If you are a huge Harry Potter fan,search for ALL THE SEVEN VERSIONS ! After all,each one is different from the others . And if you want a Harry Potter Online or a Harry Potter : Quidditch 2003,the game producers said in an interview that they are really interested on making these games (actually,the HPO is already being planned),so let's wait !
That's it . Next week I'll be back to give my opinions about Kingdom Hearts and MK : Deadly Alliance (I think Metroid Prime doesn't need more comments about its perfection) . See ya !
