Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Wii)

Product Information

I owned the first two harry potter games for a PC, and after remembering having so much fun with those I was really excited for the 5th game. Experience the wonder of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry: attend lessons, interact with the professors, mix potions, fly on broomsticks and complete tasks to collect LEGO studs. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince received a BAFTA nomination in 2010 for James Hannigan's music score, [148] and won an International Film Music Critics Association (IFMCA) Award for best video game score in 2009.

K. Rowling and its film adaptations in the Harry Potter film series: Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (2001), Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002), Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004), and Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005). Interactive Entertainment and TT Games have released a new video vignette the upcoming LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4, which is due for release on Wii and DS in May of this year. I phoned WB tech support Jan 16, 2012 and was informed that replacement discs are not being provided (except for a few very early editions that were released accidentally). And Lavender Brown has decided that Ron is the one for her, only she hadn't counted on Romilda Vane’s chocolates!

This game is good but rather repetitive, mainly making potions and wand battles, although we are not very far into it so it may get better. Trying to collect crests loses its interest after a while especially when it is impossible to reach them. Based on Harry’s first four books and films - Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s StoneTM, Harry Potter and the Chamber of SecretsTM, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of AzkabanTM, and Harry Potter and the Goblet of FireTM- fans can experience Harry’s first four years at Hogwarts™ School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in a new an exciting way. Explore iconic settings from the wizarding world including Diagon Alley, the Forbidden Forest, the village of Hogsmeade and, of course, Hogwarts castle.

The first game in the series, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone [c], was developed by five different teams, each creating different versions for different consoles. The game received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised the soundtrack, the fidelity to the material, the graphics (especially for PS3 and Xbox 360), the story and the gameplay.

Featuring all your favorite characters and story environments, LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4 lets players play as the wizard of their choice, combining them piece by piece as is only possible in the LEGO franchise of games. Sometimes nothing happens when you make the movement indicated and some spells (particularly wingardium leviosa) is almost impossible to perform. The Official Nintendo Magazine gave the Wii and DS version 80%, saying that it was "one of the best Harry Potter games ever", however it lacked originality compared to previous Lego video games. GameSpot gave the console versions an 8/10, complimenting the "large amount of secrets and charm", and disagreed with the Nintendo Magazine, saying it was both "easily the best Harry Potter game to date", and "one of the finest Lego adventures to date". Later entries in the series received increasingly lower scores on Metacritic, as critics rated Deathly Hallows – Part 1 being the poorest reviewed.
