Harry Potter and the Combined Order for Free Shipping

by JC Fletcher on Jul 18th 2007 9:50AM

The precocious wizard Harry Potter, despite not really existing, has managed to cast a spell to lower the price of his DS game by ten dollars, to $19.99. Uh-oh, it's magic! He can only keep it up for one day, and only on one site (Amazon.com) because it takes too much strength to maintain such powerful magic, and Harry's got to get his sleep for, we don't know, a Potions test or a Quidditch match or whatever the funniest Harry Potter reference would be.

Though it would delay the shipping and nullify the release-date guarantee, we'd like to remind you that adding this to your order of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows would make the order eligible for free shipping. The DS game includes a children's movie ticket for the Order of the Phoenix movie as well, so if you can legitimately pass for a child (or if you are a child), you could have a triple threat of Potter media consumption in one order.

Two things.

One, at least int he theaters in this area, Tickets for adults are the same as tickets for a child.

Two, I really hope that huge ugly ad isn't a permenant part of he packaging. I don't plan on picking up the game but still, I hate when game manufacturers (or movie and CD publishers) put ugly crap like that on the boxes.

Guess what, as soon as you get the game, there's likely no more ticket! Instead you get a spiffy darkish game cover design with a huge ugly red advertisement smack in the middle. It's almost as bad as that ugly green greatest hits PS1 crap.

The movie's conclusion was even weaker than all the previous films.

SPOILER

What was with the story of the full prophecy. Dumbledore only tells Harry one sentence confirming what Voldy already knew. I mean in the book he explains the event where Snape overhears Trelawney's prophecy to Dumbledore including that Voldemort chose Harry over Neville or anyone else as an equal threat. I mean crap man the ending was a total cop out. The battle between the Order and the Death Eaters was awesome and highlight of the film.

END SPOILER

Hey Ramen Junkie, I like Korean ramen with egg, garlic, and kimchi.
