User Submitted Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Reviews (cont...)Date: 2006-04-01 ABSOLUTELY SUCKS!!! I'm extremely disappointed in this game. The controls just don't work. I checked the system requirements before I bought it, and according to the box, I have them. But the game still doesn't work well, AT ALL. I love the previous HP games, but this is a big failure. Date: 2006-03-27 HP4: Now we're talking The arcade style action and the new creatures all show that this is the best title so far in the HP computer game series. The spell controls are easy to manage and the graphics top HP3 by a longshot. The only complaints I have is that you can't really let go of Bubotubers and controlling your character is sort of difficult. Magcus Extremos is a cool feature that I'm happy EA put in and the game follows the movie and the book very well (Can you believe they have a level for the bathroom????). This actually should get 6 out of five stars. So fun and sooooo addicting. Date: 2006-03-20 Horribly Disappointing... If you've enjoyed any or all of the previous three Harry Potter games, and you're thinking about buying this one, pick your favorite of the three, and play it again. Do NOT waste your money on this game. The screenshots were excellent, which really suckered me into buying it. The graphics were in fact quite good, probably the only redeeming aspect of the game. The exploration, my favorite part of the other games, was virtually nonexistant in this one. The controls were NOT CUSTOMIZABLE IN ANY WAY (welcome back to 1995), and making a character move straight was like bowling a strike while drunk. In the previous three, the music was great and fitting, the storyline interesting and similar to the book, and the objectives were clear and simple, while still challenging. In the Goblet of Fire, the music was unnoticable most of the time, while being almost inappropriate at others. The storyline was boring and had little to do with the book or movie at most points. The objectives were never clear, and after beating a level I was left thinking "what the hell did I just do to beat that level?" To sum it up in a sentance, I've never played a game so awful that I uninstalled it after playing it once. Date: 2006-03-19 Great! this game is very good.Here's my opinion on a scale of 1-10. graphics/10 spells/8 sounds/9 menu/8 how hard it is/6-9 similarity to book/7 controls/5 So the controls aren't the best,butI really enjoy this game. Date: 2006-03-03 Doesn't Cut It If you enjoyed the first few games at all you're wasting your time with this. It gives no freedom to explore, but instead confines the game to 'levels' more suited to a first person shooter than what should be an adventure rpg. It also plays in the style of a shooter, but with less direct control of your character. Your only real options are to shoot at things, pick things up, and make them come at you. There is hardly a story and it doesn't even pretend to give you the usual mystery to solve, it is simply attacking and running away without the small level of skill required in previous games. There is no exploration, there are no conversations, there is no skill. If you have any desire to avoid melting your brain from mindless and pointless attacking then save yourself the trouble and don't waste your money on this game.
