The only thing I am missing is my BFF next to me! I finally got to pass the point I had to pause last time because my computer died and I never got the chance to start over! The package was indeed sealed and new - no fingerprints or scratches! I advise this to everyone! The game is real fun. I am down to the point where Harry is going to Fluffy! Thanks again, desertcart! You guys take great care of your customers! Review: Buy the Lego series instead - I bought this because I've been bored and needed a Harry Potter fix since there are no more movies coming. I wish I had spent my money on something else as I feel like it was completely wasted on this game. The graphics are pretty awful, even taking into consideration the date this was made. It feels very rushed, which is likely the case as EA probably knew people would buy it no matter how crappy due to the franchise. The save points feel awkward, as most of them are in the middle of objectives. There is basically no deviation from the main objectives to do (no exploring, no side-quests, nada) expect for quidditch after it's unlocked (which was boring to me). Also, you'll likely put the volume on mute after about 10 minutes because the constant repeating/yelling of spells is grating on the ears and nerves. I didn't even bother finishing this game. A video game has to be pretty bad if I'd rather just be bored than play it.

Dude Seriously?
I'm very disappointed. I remember playing this game when I was a kid and was SOOOO excited to be able to play it again. The HUGE downfall is that they don't tell you anywhere on the product or the description that you can only play this game on some seriously old school windows. I think Windows XP is the latest version you would be able to run this on. So I basically wasted $60 on something I can never play. This bums me out majorly. Don't waste your money. They do NOT make updated versions of the game.

I re-bought this!
i lost this a while ago, but I re-bought the game because I like it so much. Controls are changeable if you want, the graphics are nice, and the game does not freeze and works well with PC computers. Does not work with apple because it is for PC, but not a lot works with apple anyways.

Enjoyable, but too easy...
This game was very enjoyable, though easy to beat (for me, as an adult). I won it in a single day. Graphics are old, but did not take away from the enjoyability of the game at all. The game installed and played smoothly with few hiccups. I gave this game 4/5 stars because for me it was too short and there wasn't enough to do. Running around collecting Chocolate Frog cards and Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Bean was enjoyable, and solving various puzzles is always fun for me, but there was little challenge and no solid action. I thoroughly enjoyed similar games designed for kids (The Hobbit and many of the LEGO video games). Those games also had many similar features, with puzzles and things to collect, but they also had much more action, without being violent at all. The most violent this game got was fending off a troll, Peeves, and Quirrell, throwing candies that blow up at Draco Malfoy, bumping into other players on broomsticks, and zapping various plants and animals with bits of magic. All of the above happened only once (with the exception of the last two, because you can play Quidditch repeatedly from the menu, and plants/animals are the primary enemies for the whole game). In my opinion, it could have been longer with more action and some tougher puzzles (most of the puzzles seemed about equal in difficulty, and many were fairly obvious). That said, I enjoyed the game and am not disappointed for having purchased it, and I plan on purchasing all later Harry Potter games when able.
