This review is for the PC demo-version of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix,
Pro:
Graphics is great,
Sound is good,
Cons:
Like Goblet of Fire the control-sytem is not designed for PC,
Here are list of problems:
1- keyboard and mouse not configurable,
2- Cannot use mouse to look around (ie control camera).
3- When turning mouse gestures off, there is no other functions will be assigned to it.
4- The camera does not follow behind the character (it is not the familiar third person camera).

Bottom line:
The control makes the game hard to play and take the fun out of it,
My suggestion is try the demo before you buy it.

I am still at the beginning, but it is a completely different game than the others. Most interesting.

NOW THIS IS MORE LIKE THE HARRY POTTER GAMES OF OLD. THE GOBLET OF FIRE WAS SUCH A LET DOWN BUT NOW WARNER BROTHERS HAVE OUT DONE THEMSELVES WITH THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX. JUST WISH THEY COULD GO BACK AND REDO THE GOBLET OF FIRE WITH THE SAME FORMAT.
THIS NEW ORDER OF THE PHOENIX IS THE BEST EVER. THERE ARE MORE HOURS OF FUN HER THAN YOU CAN IMAGINE. ONCE YOU GO THROUGH THE WHOLE GAME ONE TIME YOU ARE READY TO START A NEW GAME ALL OVER.

SUBERB, EXCELLENT ON ALL COUNTS.

Not too goal directed. Too much running around without being positive of the purpose. Unable to discern the list of DA prospect and the mouse control for running is very “loose” all over the place bumping into the other characters, walls, staircases. Not enough to do and a lot of running long distances for little or nothing. Spells do not work well and are disjointed in selection. The first two games were fun, the last too. . . not so much.
