    The game is rather disappointing, because the sound, the atmosphere, and the controls are, to put it bluntly, just really bad.

    As I stated earlier, this entry into the Harry Potter video game franchise is not broken (except for the music). The game functions well, and even looks pretty good, but there is very little incentive to play. The combat can be frustrating, it's the worst translation of the story among all the different media that it is currently available on and the music is simply non-existent (for me anyway).

    Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 is not a good DS game by any account. There's no effort behind it, the storytelling is weak, and the presentation is some of the least inspired on the handheld.

    This DS game isn't as bad as its HD counterparts, despite its average graphics and some flaws of playability. Too bad the story isn't really well put, the levels so short and really uninspired, and the close-range targeting failing more often than not. It could have been a very nice game without those flaws.

    I got the game for Christmas. I enjoyed it because I am a huge Harry Potter fan. It was, however, far from both the book and movie. SomeI got the game for Christmas.

    The graphics could have been better.
    Over all I did enjoy playing it. I know it is part one, but I think the chapters could have been longer. I got the game for Christmas and finished it today... I loved the game, but wish it had been longer.    … Expand
