Harry Potter 5 trailer will only break your heart

I'm confused. Is the title for this upcoming Harry Potter game "Harry Potter and the Uncanny Valley"?

I'm really hoping that this game plays like bully... with magic.

No, its "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix - The Video Game".

Or at least it says so at the end of the clip.

grable doesn't get the joke.

I heard he shows his penis in this one, but its supposed to be tasteful.

Will there be a 360 version?

Except for the horse scene.

Wow, that was pretty kickass, for a Harry Potter game.

I think that video was a mixture of different versions of the game. I know there's a 360 and Wii version coming out. Along with a DS version. I think I remember reading about a PS2 version as well. Either way, it was an interesting trailer.

I wonder which platform these scenes are taken from. I'm only interested in the Wii version because of the wand-control.

I thought the character models were outstanding. I wish EA would show the Spidey 3 team how to do that because the character faces are the weakest part of Spidey 3 that I've seen so far.

looks like a collection of mini-games entitled: shoot your classmates with magic (we might have to cut that one from the final version, sensitivity issues) , find your way to the dining hall, find your seat in the dining hall, try to go all the way with the girl, connect the stairs, lets wait in line, let's count sand, nada III

Judging by the screens I've seen, this trailer would be for the "next gen" version (ie. not Wii).

Looks worse than most PS2 games I've played. So this is the meaning of next gen to EA? Use the power of the consoles for sloppy releases that don't need to be optimised?

Is it me or does it seem like EA uses the same engine in every damn game: those same dull, soft looking, flat looking textures....


.....?

I dunno, but the original half dozen of them broke my heart:(

I used to work with a few harry potter fans...quite the hilarious/socially challenged type.

I mean these ppl were not in touch with reality, they were in the age range of 24-28 and they played YU-G-OH or however you spell that game..
i remember this one guy. he moved up to washington from south carolina,huge harry potter fan, and he was proud to be a woman beater. he'd brag about how his "old lady" would never talk back to him and such or he would slap her/beat her up,he thought he was a real tough guy.so a couple weeks of work go by,we were in the smoking room at wal-mart and this same dude busts out a deck of yu-g-oh cards......
and began looking at them, like plotting his next move or what ever the f^ck he was doing..(ya, im serious.)

and i busted up LAUGHING at him,pointed and said,"oh my god dude your a fucking 9 year old!" ya, i got a warning for making fun of him..but it was well worth it. i eventually quit the job cuz we all know the majority of ppl who work at wal-mart are un-educated low lifes..

ah yes that guys name was Joe...i used to call him SHH-MOE,joe-ter shh-moe-ter,joe-balls-no-balls,joto. etc. etc. and so forth.
Me and my bosses never in our life had so much fun making fun of such a chump!

ahh good times.

i dont like harry potter

"I heard he shows his penis in this one, but its supposed to be tasteful."

So, is that before or after he gauges all the horses eyes out?

oh harry, what have you and your motley crew gotten into now?

Gouged 10 gang controlled horses' eyes out with penis ...

10 points Griffendor ...

Achievement Unlocked ...

"OOHhhhh Wilbur!"

The character models DID seem good... but this looked like a bleary ps2 game... if this WAS a ps2 game, that would be fine.

If this is a next-gen game, then props for good character models, but geez, those environments are totally stagnant!

And think about it, there are even ps2 games with way better environments than this.

EA is like this weird attractive crack whore chicken-head thing, we like you because you push our buttons but you also disgust us at times, and when we're through with you we want to run away...

Looks like they learned a lot from examining what Rockstar did with Bully. That is definitely a good thing.

I think I'll wait for the Harry Potter MMO instead.

A Harry Potter MMO would own

@ Weezy, the guy is a woman beater so he deserves to be made fun of, but apart from that, Harry Potter owns, who cares if there are 20 something fans out there? And whoever plays Yu-Gi-Oh, no matter what age, deserves a beat down

This game has potential, judging by the trailer and info I know of it so far. But I wouldn't get my hopes up, its EA

@Alex

Why exactly is Harry Potter less gay than Yu-Gi-Oh? If you're 20+ and into either, you have some problems.

I think he should be refered to as "He who shall not be played". No offense but "Gamed" seems a bit of a stretch. (IMvHO)

A thought for a Wii game can have the Wiimote as wand, the DS lite as the spellbook, where the wand motion and the spell (through DS's mike port) will activate a spell.

I think that would be really cool

They already made a great Harry Potter game. It's called Bully.

Just put in HP characters, put it in Hogwarts, and add magic - it'd be the best possible HP game.

Nothing looks more awkward than current-gen graphics combined with last-gen animations...

@ alex

yes, being abusive is the main reason why i was making fun of him the other"harry potter" and "yu g oh" was the icing on the cake..i honestly have no problem with harry potter, i was mainly trying to be funny..its just the whole mental makeup of the guy which made it satisfying to CLOWN that meat ball.

oh man that dude got so mad when i dissed his ass..i thought he was gonna lunge at me from across the table!I kinda wish he did it would be great to give him a beat down and im 110% sure everyone in the room wouldnt have even cared if i f^cked him up..but as i said well worth it to get a warning from the bosses! cause as come of you dont know when you work at wal-mart you got 5-8 bosses at all times...all complete losers I might add and imo all lead pathetic lives.

i think this harry potter game is going to be the best freking video game EVER!!! u can do more in this game than any of the other potter games, its gonna be awesome!!!!
