Publisher's description of Harry Potter: Quidditch World Cup demo

From EA Games:

Take to the air in the first game that allows players to fully experience the magical speed, power, and competition of Quidditch, the favorite sport of witches and wizards. Quidditch involves two teams of seven players who fly on broomsticks, playing four balls simultaneously. Players control every position on their team, including three Chasers, who try to score with the Quaffle; two Beaters, who control the dangerous Bludgers; the Keeper, who protects the goal; and the Seeker, who chases the elusive Golden Snitch that must be caught to end the match.

Editor's review of Harry Potter: Quidditch World Cup demo

  • 2.0 stars

Derived from the wildly popular Harry Potter book and film series, Harry Potter: Quidditch World Cup diverges from the previous adventure games associated with the stories, and instead offers a fantasy sports game. In Quidditch, two teams of seven players on flying broomsticks assume specific positions to score goals, play defense, and search for the elusive Golden Snitch. Although the full game might provide some entertaining competition, the limited demo disappoints completely, with a modicum of gameplay for a massive 253MB download.

Graphics are good, and you'll recognize the more visible characters from the movie, but they don't make up for the lack of game controls. Four keys control your player's movement, and one button passes the ball. There might be more controls in the full game, but there's no way to tell from the demo, which only includes one short tutorial on passing that gamers will likely complete in less than a minute. Hard-core Harry Potter fans with fast connections and extra hard-drive space might want to give this massive demo a whirl, but most of us should probably let this Quaffle sail on by.
