Post New Half-Blood Prince video game trailer & promos (UPDATE #2)

IGN has released a new trailer and promotional images from the Half-Blood Prince Nintendo Wii video game, which can be viewed below:



The game gives players an opportunity to look around at the smallest and most intricate parts of Hogwarts:

Quote:
There is a large game world waiting to be explored, so while there is always a story objective waiting to be completed, you may want to just run around on your own. During our play session Harry's pal Ron was leading us to the potion room to learn about mixing. But he was more than happy to wait for us while we took detours to look for collectibles.
Quote:
Various objects around Hogwarts can be interacted with, and students you encounter might give you hints as to what is possible. As you run down hallways, you may encounter hanging tapestries that hide a rhythm mini-game. If you jump and hit the first one at the right time, subsequent tapestries will fall.
Lavender Brown is introduced in the game, where she suffers a predicament at the hands of her fellow students:

Quote:
When we got back on track with Ron we encountered a girl named Lavender Brown (Ron's lady friend). Someone had cast a spell on her books so that they were flying around and she couldn't get them down. By levitating her bag we were able to catch her books in the air and save the day.

The photos can be seen below and in our galleries:












UPDATE: IGN has released images from the Half-Blood Prince Nintendo DS game, as well, which can be seen in our galleries:







The Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince video game will be released November 13, in the U.S. and November 14th in Europe.

UPDATE #2: Team XBox has posted five new screencaps from the Half-Blood Prince game, which can be seen here:

Remember guys just because something is in the game that does NOT mean it's necessarily in the film. The beauty of the video games is that they can expand where the movies can't.

its interesting what they will do with the release date for this video game given that the movie has been delayed for eight months. the Thanksgiving/Christmas Holidays are still the best season to sell games versus the traditionally slower Summer months, but the opposite is true for movie ticket sales. hmm what would WB do now i wonders.....
