Bad

Very disappointing, very short.

While it is true that you can roam the castle, that comes at the expense of not being able to enter many rooms, or have much to do. The entire game can be finished in a few hours with little to keep you entertained. There are 3 events, repeated indefinitely: point your wii pointer in green circles (quidditch), play Cooking Mama, and wag the wiimote up and down rapidly to win any duel (despite having other spells you could use). I think I wouldn't be as down on this game had I not played the previous one, had the maker had a full year extension to improve and deepen the play, and had my hopes not been high. It is a let down. However, it is a let down that proves the value of Gamefly...don't ever buy what you can rent and return!

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince review

It starts when well I got it like 3 weeks ago so don't know the beginning much First lets start with graphics they were pretty good I'd give them a 8 on graphics. 2 the action fun part not very good because you duel someone and that's it pretty lame I'd give it a 1. 3 the game time it wasn't very long and a lot of movement when brewing potions i was disappointed but except for that i liked i liked when you could explore Hogwarts but you don't do any spells so lame. But it's hard to get where your going because Hogwarts is so big and you don't know where in the heck your going. I'd give this game a 2.

Was too easy to play. Storyline follows the movie, which was okay, but the game itself is for kids not serious gamers.
