Electronic Arts and Warner Bros. Harry Potter fans bring the end of
2008, a magical experience. The video game Harry Potter and the
Half-Blood Prince was published simultaneously on the same movie.
Hogwarts awake to life and lets players interact in the magical world
around the young wizard as authentic as never before experienced. "With
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, we will set new benchmarks for
the implementation of video game movies," said Harvey Elliott, Head of
EA’s studios in the UK. "We rely on the technological advances of the
previous Harry Potter games and put on with particular attention to the
unique capabilities of the Nintendo Wii console. In addition, the team
works closely with the filmmakers to create a realistic interactive
experience, the history , captures the action, excitement and of course
the entertainment of the film. "
In Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Voldemort’s cruel impact
felt more strongly, and Hogwarts is no longer a safe haven. Together,
Harry and his friends set about deciphering secret of Voldemort’s piece
by piece. At the same play at Hogwarts to make matters worse, even the
crazy hormones. Harry felt more and more drawn to Ginny while Hermione
is jealous of Ron’s love affairs. Love is in the air, but also to pave
tragedies.
In the video game Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, the player
returns to Hogwarts to help Harry, there are his sixth year at the
school. We must deny exciting duels to concoct magical ingredients and
lead the Gryffindor Quidditch team to victory on a broom. In his
adventurous journey through the castle, the player may be distracted
even by Ron’s romantic entanglements of love and turmoil, as he tries
to decipher the true identity of the Half-Blood Prince. Besides, she
set includes the original voice actors from the film, as well as those
who did the dubbing in their respective regions, to maintain unity with
the film. During an interview, the developers told us that the scenes
of dialogue, unlike previous editions of this series, took much of its
direction and camera change what was done in "Mass Effect", while the
mini games make potions and wizards duels originally raised with the
Wii version in mind, which could explain how it is that they feel
somewhat forced and awkward in editions for other home consoles.
Graphically, we must recognize that the degree far outstrips the
previous editions of Harry Potter, even on the Wii, where you can see
that they subjected to the Cube 1.5 for that resemble visual experience
that is in the Xbox 360. Still, the title does not cease to be a
general adaptation of a movie more than Harry Potter, and even with the
return of Quidditch games and an ambitious production that seeks to
increasingly realistic world of the English magician, no nothing to
ensure that "Harry Potter & the Half Blood Prince" not be forgotten
once you’re done … or leave in its wake. Sure, if we consider that
this is a production of Electronic Arts, I think that’s more than
expected.
In the game of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, players will
return to Hogwarts to help Harry survive a fraught sixth year. They
will also have a chance to engage in exciting wizard duels, mix and
brew magical ingredients in Potions class and take to the air to lead
the Gryffindor Quidditch team to victory. Players may even get
sidetracked by Ron’s romantic entanglements as they journey towards a
dramatic climax and discover the identity of the Half-Blood Prince.

Game Plot ——–
In Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Voldemort felt more strongly
influence both the cruel Muggle than even in the wizarding world and
Hogwarts is no longer a safe haven. As Harry suspects also threatened
danger in the castle, but Dumbledore is more intent upon preparing him
for his decisive battle that seems to not be too far away. Together
they set about deciphering secret of Voldemort’s piece by piece, and
they manage to get an old friend and colleague of Dumbledore for their
cause: bon vivant Professor Horace Slughorn who has many contacts and
may even conceal some important information. Meanwhile, the students
have for a very different kind of need to fight, because in the castle
of love is here to stay, and the hormones play literally crazy. Harry
felt more and more drawn to Ginny, but since he is not the only thing
is, because Dean Thomas expressed interest … Lavender Brown has been
madly in love with Ron and pursues her ambitious goal, but she has not
reckoned with Romilda Vane. And then there’s Hermione, which is
extremely jealous of Ron’s love affairs, but fiercely determined not to
let their feelings to say. One student, however, has little to do with
the general sentimentality in his hat. Rather, he is determined to set
an example – in the form of the Dark Mals! Love is in the air, but also
pain and tragedy are not far away. Will Hogwarts unscathed this
turbulent time?
Thus, as in "Half-Blood Prince, Hogwarts from EA we no longer see.
The following year, Harry Potter to leave school and go in search of
artifacts, in which the soul of Volan de Mort. Seventh, the final book
– not about the classes, and magic academy – just a backdrop for an
epic battle between good and evil. And after a year license for mass
production wizards will return to the Warner Bros. In the meantime, get
ready to fly on a broomstick, mixing reagents in a bowler hat and
waving a stick.
Quidditch, alchemy and magic duel. Three arcades, diluted clumsy
rollers and bonuses from all that glitters – in the opinion of EA
Bright Light, they took Harry in the sixth year stay at Hogwarts. If
you are familiar with Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix , Long
explanations unnecessary. Erecting a seamless world for the previous
game, the authors used it again, several new areas. Despite the
impressive scope, getting lost is still difficult – Nearly Headless
Nick will be much faster than any "Marauder’s Map."
Yes, and there is little reason to wander the neighborhood, except that
someone else likes to find the 150 emblems Hogwarts, scattered in the
corners. In between the scenic mini-games we offer exactly the same,
only optional. Was the best duelists Gryffindor – hold an honorary
medal and an increase in their health. Those who will overcome the
three faculty will gather a complete set of medals for Potions and not
die of boredom, establishing a record in the games’ passage through
more than 20 rings, waiting for a hike in Hogsmid. However, there is
nothing to do.
In general, for that EA struggled out and bumped. On the one hand its
close stingy events film by David Yates (David Yates), on the other –
the literary source tosses "fleshbeki" through the head. After the
fifth part of its intrigue, the underground circles and diktatorshey in
a skirt, memories of childhood and adolescence, Tom Riddle, albeit damn
important to the denouement, not turn into a fascinating gameplay. I
can not insert gag – Licensing Division of Warner Bros. vigilantly
monitors the chickens.
However, these developers are unlikely to have included a fantasy –
exceedingly lazy. After drawing a square blocks of wheat for the Wii
and PlayStation 2, they drag them on other platforms with wooden
gestures and "glyuchaschey" mimicry. And be honest: the owners of the
Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 are suffering along with the PC audience.
The only difference in management. Mouse conveniently turn the camera
on and steered the broom, a standard gamepad is good for reading
spells, Wii remote is better in dealing with all the ingredients for
medicines.
