Glad I got it on sale because FULL price would have made me cry
I was very excited to find this game on sale this morning at a local toysrus; I got it home installed it. I was nearly jumping out of my seat at the graphics but sadly that is where the excitment ended.

1. I HATE the new controls, they are impossible.
2. The fact you can't use the mouse to look around and change the POV makes it very hard to even see what is attacking you.
3. The turning and going left and right sucks because you can't get the character where you need them to be in order to cast the spell.

I own all the HP games and love all of them, even the first one that was not so wonderful but this one. Honestly I wish I could return it even though I opened it. It's a horrible game and I really hope they go back to the old gaming style on the fifth one because this one gives me a head ache it spins so much and is so confusing.

No go....
Got the game for Christmas and thought it was alright but not as fun or interesting as HP 1, 2 and 3. Like to explore and like to jump and use the mouse to look around, etc. Goblet simply not like the others, but is ok. Mom upgraded XP pro to a service pack and BOOM.....suddenly no more controls.....can't make characters do ANYTHING right. Controls are very slow and random now, just like some of the other reviews....character will run left instead of right and forward instead of back and then will stumble along and will not move fast and then will suddenly move all over by himself ... after I have removed my hands from the keyboard!!! Very weird and unplayable now.
Mom says might be an xp issue thing but all I know is now I can't play it at all and before, when I could, it wasn't as much fun. Bring back the old style, pleeeeze. In meantime, Mom is going to install older version of XP on different machine and we will give it another try.

All three kids love it!
My three godchildren all love this game. They have actually worked out some way by which they cooperate in challenging their enemies.They have each taken over some portion of the same keyboard!

YUCK!
I've played the first 3 games and i thought they were great! The controls were awesome and the graphics were pretty good too. Then the 4th one came out so of course i was excited, but i started to play it and it was HORRIBLE! i hated the controls most. I kept dying because i couldn't get Harry to get what i needed. I was very upset. The game was pretty confusing. I really wish i would have known it was like this before i bought. If i would have known i'd could have saved my money to buy something else. This was a waste.
