The new trailer for Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4 takes these recurring tropes and adds them to the world of Hogwarts, Muggles, and He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named, sprinkling in iconic moments from the first four blockbuster books throughout. Without a release date for the game – and with the first half of the final Harry Potter film not hitting theaters until next November – we worry it might be awhile before we get our hands on this block-breaking version of Harry.

I like the Lego games, but from what I've heard, they really blew it with Lego Indiana Jones 2. I hope they actually bring some new stuff to the table this time.

I wonder if anyone still remembers the old Lego games from the early 2000's. I played Alpha Team and Lego Island like a drug.

Hey, is my avatar still showing the Star Forge, or did it update? I'm trying to make it something less noticeable.

I think I had Lego Island. I remember owning two PC Lego games, one of which was pretty much just free for all Lego building fun.
And Bradwart, I still see the giant blue star.

I'm trying to 'update' it to my old one, but it's proving difficult.

Lego Island was awesome. It's like playing Lego GTA. I had Lego Creator too, where you could just build whatever you wanted and then blow it up. Fun times.

This is less noticeable, and appropriate.

Here, have a cookie... *mumbles* a cookie laced with pure evil!

Also, yes! Lego Creator! That's what it was.

oh man! Rock Raiders! I used to love that game! It was like the only thing I played for an entire year! I loved going into over the shoulder mode and following a miner to kill the rock monsters! Lego Racers was a lot of fun too

I see what you did there. Warner Bros references are pretty much win for nostalgia factor. How the hell did you remember that one! BB!!!!
