[img]http://www.snitchseeker.com/images/news/poa_harry_hermione_80.jpg' align='middle'> Harry Potter and the mid-life crisis - a humorous article Summary:
The July 2004 Issue of the Game Informer magazine has written a short funny piece on Harry Potter. Article: Harry Potter and the mid-life crisis
Thanks to Lis, a Veritaserum reader, for sending in a scan from the July 2004 issue of Game Informer magazine, featuring a humorous article called "Harry Potter and the Midlife Crisis." The article is meant to completely satirical, so please don't take any of it's words to heart. Quote: Based on real child stars, we can only imagine that he'll eventually lose his cuteness, see his career vanish (like magic), and possibly spend a little time in Azkaban Prison for posession of a forbidden enchanted powder. Quote: We'd like to see Harry sta in an RPG that chronicles his return to the public eye after twenty years of obscurity. Quote: Harry's powers would have dwindled to a fraction of their former strength, thanks to years to neglect and potion abuse. Quote: In order to claw his way back into the limelight, Harry would have to hone his magic powers by using spells like "summon beer," creating gin-flavored beans, and using his Cloak of Identity Theft. Basically, the article is a mock-up rough planned gameplay for a possible video game featuring "older" Harry. Please note, this gameplay is not serious, not such game has been planned.
Thanks to Veritaserum for pointing this out and for the scan, in which you can also see a satirical mock-up image of the front cover of the "game".  | |
