    This game is too easy to play! I could have beaten this game in a day if the matches were not so long.

    This game was awesome to play. Quidditch is an awsome sport to play! I think EA should make another one with some new things involved.

    An overall fun game, Quidditch World Cup could still be improved. I thought the gameplay worked quite well, and captured the feel of Quidditch, and the look of the stadiums and uniforms was great in the international games, but the game is far too easy until you unlock more difficulty levels. What I really found lacking though, was the absence of background information. I wanted to check An overall fun game, Quidditch World Cup could still be improved.

What I really found lacking though, was the absence of background information. I wanted to check out the team roster, and learn about the players, I wanted to see the rankings of the international teams and their strengths and weaknesses. If they added this information to a sequel, I think it would make the game even more fun and believable.… Expand

    Quidditch World Cup is beautifully crafted and fun to play, that is if you can overlook the fact game play is difficult and the cameras are pathetic also quidditch is just a stupid sport.

    Funny and entertaining at first, but eventually you learn a way to win every time. No replay value at all and the matches are way too long. Not a required addition to anyone's game collection, not even for a true Harry Potter fan. Would buy it for 3 bucks, but anything more is too much.

    A fun fictional sports game! Good team selection and decent graphics.

    The game becomes addictive at first but eventually leaves you wanting just a tad more.

    The reality of the younger audience aspect is that it isn’t as deep as other EA sporting games and therefore the lasting appeal will drop significantly for older gamers.

    If EA had relied on their stellar background in sports to enhance QWC, this game would be infinitely better and much easier to play. That's not to say it's not enjoyable. It can be, at least before the challenge ramps up later in the game.

    It really only has two problems, both of which can be overcome very easily. It's way to easy in the single player mode, and the lack of true 4 dimensional movement keep the game from being super great.
