Post First Half-Blood Prince video game review

Pocket Gamer has the first review of the Half-Blood Prince video game on Nintendo DS. The game was recently announced
to be released the same time as the film. We also got our first look at the graphics via a screenshot.

Quote:
Outside of the mini-games, the rest of the game is entirely free-roaming, letting you explore Hogwarts at will and pick up side-quests in a random order. The game still follows the plot of the film, but its makers say they were keen not to bog the player down with dialogue and cut-scenes. So if gamers want to tap on certain words in conversations to find out more of the backstory behind them, they can. Or they can also just run amok casting spells on unsuspecting bookcases and Slytherins instead.
Quote:
Away from the combat, the game's story missions offer variety by using certain events in the film's plot for specially crafted sections. So for the Pensieve bits, where Harry is being tutored by Dumbledore to view Voldemort's memories, there are point-and-click, quick-time levels to play. Whereas Harry being chased by Death Eaters is translated into a linear, Time Crisis style level.
The game is still in progress but will be released in November on all major platforms and mobile devices.

It sounds awesome. I actually like the way they did OOTP with the fact that you could wonder around as opposed to the ones previous, but I think it'll be tons better without having to watch the cut scenes like they did in OOTP. Can't wait.
