| | |  Electronic Arts interested in Harry Potter multiplayer RPG
At the beginning of June we told you Warner Brothers were 'investigating' the possibility of creating a massive multiplayer role playing game (MMORPG) centered around the world of Harry Potter. Electronic Arts have now stated their interest. Quote:
The current Potter game producer, Electronic Arts, told me last week that they’re interested in the possibility of a Harry Potter MMO, too. “I think there could be a fun MMO with Harry Potter,” said “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” executive producer Jonathan Bunney.
Of course, that doesn’t mean a “Harry Potter” MMO is actually coming. Bunney told me they’re completely focused on finishing “Half-Blood Prince” and approaching the difficulties of “Deathly Hallows” being split into two movies. I’ll have more on that later this week.
Thanks to Blog Hogwarts for the link!
In regards to Half-Blood Prince, EA have told us; Quote:
"We are making a great game that Harry Potter fans will really enjoy -- we are evaluating the game release."
More pictures from the game have emerged recently, showing more from the Duelling Club and Quidditch. They can be seen here.  | |

Whatever they do, I hope they entrust a decent developer with this project. I don't really have faith in EA...
And might this be first post, perchance?

I've never been a fan of computer games but it'd be so awesome if they made one of those

they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. | |

For HP I would play a game like that. I'm curious to hear how the project might develop if EA or some other company does pick up the idea.
