Harry's older and more powerful, but his gameplay is just becoming stale.

Goblet of Fire looks just fine, thanks to environments that faithfully replicate those of the film. And the character models look great; they're easily the best in the series. But it matters little, when there's nothing interesting to do. And the frequent sound bites and shouted dialogue wear thin long before the tournament even begins. If EA could loosen up and trust Rowling's audience to respond to a challenge there might be a wonderful adventure game for Harry Potter to star in, but this definitely isn't it.

You'll love
  • Great character models
  • Tri-wizard tournament events are fun
  • Appealing visual presentation
You'll hate
  • Lacks the book's personality
  • Boring, push-button spell casting
  • Over-emphasis on shrill dialogue
