Using Kinect with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

If you’re thinking about getting yourself Kinect for the Xbox 360, the good news is it’s already being supported in 3rd-party titles. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will support the new hardware and you can cast spells using gestures. According to one of the Weasley twins at Gamescom it’s actually more realistic than doing it on a green screen. Now there’s a quote!

Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4

Lego Harry Potter Years 1 to 4 review

Daniel Radcliffe’s acting has always been a bit plastic so thankfully Traveller’s Tales have decided to give Harry Potter the Lego treatment and what we get is probably one of the best games in the series. They’ve definitely learned a thing or two what with all the Star Wars games, Indiana Jones and Batman under their utility belt. Now it’s time to go into Hogwarts and use all the spells from the movie to move Lego blocks about as you build, destroy and hop about the levels. The first thing you’ll notice is how great everything looks. Lego’s not the...

Lego Harry Potter for Wii is promising to...

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince review

Even though I’ve seen four of the Harry Potter movies I’m not really a big fan of them. I can’t deny they look very pretty and the cinematics are at times stunning; just personally I find the storylines and acting a lacking something. Having not read any of the books I don’t want to label the whole Harry Potter franchise and being a bit bland, just the movies. So let’s see how the sixth movie has transferred to game in my review of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince for Wii. Once again you take control of wizard sensation...

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince DS review

I don’t know if you’ve heard of Harry Potter. A lesser-known British series of children’s novels, the titular character and his adventures in the magical school Hogwarts has earned somewhat of a cult following amongst school children. Oddly enough, the series has also spawned a few movies and video games; the latest in the series of cash-ins is Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince on the Nintendo DS. So in an attempt to spread the word a bit and hopefully get more people interested in Master Potter’s magical stories here is our review of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince...
