Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire review:
The visuals, music and voice acting are beautifully done, but the same can’t be said for the storyline, and controls. This is definitely worth a rental for the weekend if you’re a fan who can’t get enough of the movies, but the simple gameplay, and repetitiveness become tiring quickly.
Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire review:
The potential to create a proper, fully realised interactive version of J.K. Rowling's books is definitely there, and I hope that EA's inevitable release of The Order Of The Phoenix is a deeper and more open-ended affair that caters for adults as well, rather than just placating the kids.
Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire review:
It's a worthwhile platforming experience for hardcore Potter fans, but some may be put off by all the collection quests and backtracking.
Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire review:

Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire preview:
One technique that I would use that works wonderfully is to have one play snag a beast with a charm, holding it in place. Meanwhile, the other player unloaded a fury of jinxes on the helpless monster. As you progress, you'll even be able to upgrade your characters stats, like range of fire and strength. It's not quite RPG level, but it does add a bit more depth to the game.
