 Stunning and superb June 26, 2010

Over the years i bought all of the lego wii games satr wars, indiana jones and batman, so when i saw harry potter come out i just had to get it.
I am a HUGE fan of the books, films and games and lego harry potter is no disappointment. The spell casting is awesome, the range of characters is fantastic and the lego comedy elements are brilliant. The game stays true to the story lines and allows players to travel all through out hogwarts collecting coins, smashing boxes and saving students.
The game is suitable for all ages, my brother and i have been enjoying the co-op ability. One point i must make is the length of the game. I've had it for a few days and can see an upcoming end. However is has been so much fun that i wont care when i finish it because i will just play it again.
This game is a must get for any lego fans, harry potter fanatics or anyone looking for a spectacular console game
Another cracking title in the Lego series June 27, 2010

We have been waiting for this game for ages and I have to say it was worth the wait. My son is a massive Lego fan and also loves all of the Lego video games and has them all on PC, Wii and DS! I have never actually been tempted to play any of them as they are not my usual sort of game but as I love Harry Potter so much I decided to give this one a go with my son.
The game controls are very straight forward and I love the fact that you can't actually die - you just respawn and lose some 'studs'. There is so much to do in the game I can see that it will take us ages to actually complete it as the developers have been very clever and added elements into every level which require you to do the level again in free play mode. The cut scenes are brilliant and very funny.
I would definitely recommend this game to anyone who likes Lego, Harry Potter and gaming!
 Beautiful, fun but clunky June 28, 2010

I'm a fan of the Lego games - having played them all and so was very much looking forward to this game. In many ways it hasn't disappointed. The scenes are beautiful and it is very faithful to the films (and mostly to the books too). The characters are easily recognisable. The clips are funny. But it is a much clunkier game than Indiana Jones, Batman or Star Wars. It is fun learning how to use the different spells but having to choose between them slows down the game (meaning you lose lives while switching from one to another) or the game sometimes chooses the spell for you - which seems fairly pointless. And a couple of times I've got completely stuck and had to re-start the level because I'd blasted something which was then needed to move something else (ie the books fell off the toilet seat in the girls' bathroom so I couldn't climb onto the platforms (level 2)) whereas in the previous games, part of the fun was blasting everything to pieces knowing that the important parts of the level couldn't be destroyed or would be re-set. My other gripe is that, in some of the levels, it is very difficult to work out what to do while in some others it is very very simple. The game plays as a rushed release without all the polish and finesse that one expects of the Lego games. Would I recommend it? Yes. I'll finish the game and probably enjoy it but with a little sense of disappointment.

I must admit that the Lego Wii games are the only ones I feel able to participate in with my children maybe because they are user friendly and more suitable for families than some others on the market. The graphics are great, there's a lot of laugh out loud comedy moments and the fact one doesn't die but just regenerate and lose a couple of studs makes for much happier play between my 10 yr old and his 6 yr old sister. You don't have to be a fan of the books or films to enjoy the game as my son is neither but it's the lego bit which provides the fun and fascination. Can't wait for the next one.
 Not challenging enough July 23, 2010

Not challenging enough in comparison with previous Lego games like Indiana Jones and Batman.
After playing Indiana Jones, I would expect the difficulty level for this game is equal if not more.
The good point is that there are not too many boats, cars, animals, aeroplanes that I have to ride. They can be really tedious to navigate.
Personally, I find it less buggy than previous games from Lego.
