    You play as Harry, Hermine or one of Harry's friends to defeat the dark lord, but with a total play time of 4 hours I would have expected a better gameplay.

    A mere add-on to the previous game, short and without any improvements to the first game, even losing features like Kinect support.

    EA's Harry Potter series unceremoniously bows out in this final game. While the previous games were also disappointments, this one sinks even lower to full-on cash-in status. What you're left with is a confused mess parading around as a barely-competent third-person shooter.

    This is not a game worth buying for anything other than the amusing oddity of having a Harry Potter-themed cover shooter. It's a short game, but it still doesn't have the variety in environments that a shooter needs to avoid becoming unacceptably repetitive.

    Offers little variation and hardly requires strategic input, which leaves a mindless third-person shooter. The well-executed story and great looking characters make it a tad more interesting, but these elements can't hide the fact that the four-eyed magician often turns to his wands for simple and selfish needs.

    There's no exclusive content, just a new way to struggle with already poor combat.

    This is the absolute nadir of the series. Harry Potter has finally devolved into a total cash-in and we can't score it low enough. Honestly, if you're a fan of the movies, avoid this and just go to the theater. Don't spoil the end for yourself with this half-baked mess.

It may be short, but really captures the feeling of the film. Spell-casting feels fluid and exciting. Yes, it may be a far cry from earlier Harry Potter games, but then, the books and films at this point are much darker. Finally, we get to play as other characters from the fiction, and it really adds something special. No longer can you spam one spell and get away with it. Having to switch spells whilst others 'recharge' makes you feel a sense of danger, and a sense of how scared Harry must be. All in all, I'd have preferred a longer game, but with the possibility of replaying sections of the game to earn more points and some beautiful world art EA have created something pretty close to the movie and fun to play.… Expand

Graphics range from very good to quite ugly, and the story is just non-existent. The different characters seem fun at first, but then you realise they all function the SAME! However, the gameplay is good, with a fun shooting mechanic, but having to do basically the same game OVER and OVER again! And that's what this game is; it's a lazy, repetitive, faceless mess!… Expand

Fans of the movies (or worse, books) will be terrified by the unimaginative execution. Lifeless characters go through the motions but the game is lost somewhere between "shoot stuff with magic" and "connect the dots, follow the movie". All muggles will struggle to understand if there's actually more to the story of the Deathly Hallows than the simple arcadey sequences set up for this game. There is but not here. Watch the movie again, read the book, avoid this game.… Expand

This terrible. Its rubbish, the gameplay is slightly better then the first game but guess what. I rented this game and finished it in just under 4 hrs. ARE U KIDDIN ME!? The stupid dim-witted developers abominated the book and movie with Call of Duty, Gears of War style shooting game. The only positive thing I can say about this game is it follows with the movie other than that, this is just a cheap, rushed, knock off.â… Expand
