- Ok, but could be SO much better
This game was fun at the beginning, but then it just got to be doing the same against the same teams over and over and over. If i were you, i would just rent it from blockbuster, after you have played for 1 hour and a half, itll be boring and you can return it. They should have added an online play feature, so you could play against other teams. i dont really recomend it for you because it is very boring after a while. (...)

- Eh...
When I viewed a preview of this game I was thoroughly surprised with the graphics et cetera. When I received the game as a gift, I was most excited. About twenty minutes into the game I was bored stiff. The game is either too simple at times (I won every single one of my matches just by doing the same moves over and over again) or too confusing (there was way too many tricks to learn and comprehend whilst playing multiple positions.) I loved the whole idea of the game as well as the graphics, I just found the game too easy at times and got bored of it quite fast.

- Good, but not without flaws
I like the Harry Potter book and film series, but the video games have always been lacking something, and QWC is no exception. Of course, I'm 24 and these games are made more for kids.

Straight off, game play is VERY easy. There is no difficulty setting. You don't have altitude control; the game assumes this for you, and makes it fairly easy to maneuver about the field.

It's also very detailed with the characters. I'm not sure JK Rowling has detailed team rosters written up or not, but I recognize a lot of names from the books. I don't think they come right out and say it, but you're playing Second Year students; Draco Malfoy is the Slytherin seeker, and he didn't get that position until "Chamber of Secrets."

I've noticed that there are some Potter fans who don't like Harry and his friends; this game cleverly caters to these fans as well. You don't have to be Gryffindor; you can be Slytherin, or my favorite, Ravenclaw. When I played Gryffindor, I beat them 500 to nothing (again, attributing to how easy this game is) and Harry walked away disappointed.

The biggest problem I have with this game is the skill level. It's so easy, a 5 year old could play it. However, rather than adapt to your skill or offer a better difficulty, the game "cheats" at times to catch up. You'll be playing and all of a sudden it will cut to a cinematic, where the other team will pull off a fancy score. They're fun to watch the first and sometimes second times, but after that they're a drag, and you can't skip them. There's also a few other nasty tricks the computer-controlled team can pull on you, but if you have some skill, you can still win every time.

I disagree with other reviewers' assessments of EA Games. They're a very well known publisher, but I have had really odd problems in the past I won't go into here. When I play a game from EA, I expect problems. One issue I had was in the Japanese field. Sometimes the Chasers would fly through the buildings on the side; other times, the Chaser could get "stuck" on one side.

The Golden Snitch aspect of this game is rather funny. You don't get a run as the Seeker until the Snitch is "spotted," which doesn't happen until so many points are made. Each team's score counter has a bar with half the Snitch, and as the other team scores, your bar increases. When the two halves meet, the Snitch enters the game, and you take over as the Seeker. The computer controlled Seeker has about 8 times more "turbo" than you do, but that just means yours refills faster! Refill turbo by staying in the Snitch's slipstream. I catch it every time... (Also, for some reason, they call it the Snidditch, though it's clearly Snitch in the books.)

Despite this game's quirkiness and strange difficulty, I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a fun game. If you're a parent, there are a few things that make this game appealing, for example, at the end of the match, it shows members of opposite teams congratulating one another. (The Seeker never shows good sportsmanship, however.)

- A Great Game!
First of all, this game is great (as the title of my reveiw implys) for both fans of the Harry Potter book/movie/video game series and sports fans alike. Good things first--

... this is an abselutely great game with 14 beautiful environments. These places are the national Quidditch Stadiums (which include, but are not limited to, France, Germany, Bulgaria, England, the USA, Japan and Australia) the Hogwarts stadium, and Queerditch Marsh (the birthplace of Quidditch, for those of you didn't know).

The plot of the game is suprisingly clever for a sports simulation-game; you start off at Hogwarts as one of the four Hogwarts Houses where you promptly learn how to play under the guise of "Quidditch Training." (By the way, do not be put of by the first chaser's challenge, it is one of the hardest in my opinion and I have abselutely no idea why EA Games chose to put it first). After you complete your training (but don't feel put off if you don't pass all of them, you'll do fine in a game as long as you have a basic understading of the different positions and how to play them) you can go on to playing games against the other houses, and I don't men those "only Seeker" games like in the other Harry Potter games, in this you play as all the players, with the exeption of the Keeper. If you winn at least one game against every house and/or manage to keep your point total up you could win the Hogwarts Quidditch Cup and, in addition, tickets to all of the games in the World Cup where you promptly go on to choose a team to support (play as) all through the World Cup.

Let me tell you, the graphics are incredible! The charecters, the Stadiums (Queerditch in particular.) I just can't put their greatness into words!

It is amazing how "right" the game has it. Even the names of the Hogwarts Quidditch players are correct, as are the rules of Quidditch and the way it is played.

All right now the Cons--

1. You can't play as Ireland and they won the Cup in Harry potter and the Goblet of Fire!

2. There is no way to change the difficulty, and after a while I started to want a harder game.

3. I thought that it would be kind of cool to see the evolution of Quidditch, from Chasers only on up. Needless to say, the game does not include this.

But dispite the cons, this game is pure fun in a pretty package, with it biased and hillariuos comentating, great gameplay and amazing graphics.

See you next time!

P.S I forgot to mention, I do not recomend this game for children under 8 or 9 years old for the games can be confusing and needlessle frusterating for these young and blooming gamers.

- this game just sucks the worst game ever get another game
