| | | "Voldemort is a scary dude" in new OotP video game
Video game maker Electronic Arts (EA) previewed the new Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix game at a show this weekend in London. According to EA, the video game will be available one week prior to the film’s release (July 17) and has loads of new features, including new scenery, more player choice (so you don’t have to complete one level in order to get to the next one), and Voldemort as a "scary dude that makes the Emporer (from Star Wars) look like a wussy," according to EA senior designer Chris Roberts. Quote:
You're going to see all of Hogwarts based on the blueprints from the movie. It's all there and it streams without loading. We're showing some places that have never been seen before like Grimmauld Place where Sirius Black lives.
The game is designed to give players the freedom to do whatever they want, with no prescribed way to complete the game. We've got a school full of kids - it's a living breathing world the player can mooch around in - they're not absolutely forced to play this level, then this level, then this level. The game is completely free-form: Harry can go to class, play gobstones or wizard chess, all of the things from the film.
Thanks to TLC for the tip! |

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. |
