Some of the worst takes I have ever heard on these games. So...there's that.

Do you… know what the definition of penultimate is?

10:13 cursed af

btw 11:34 a fricking ps1 game from 1999 „Toy Story 2" made it better with the Pizza Planet Chips, you can choose yourself if you want to leave the level or continue after collecting one of the 5 lol

my favorite part of the first 3 PC games are the secrets (I still look for games which have secrets like these games) also the atmosphere of the levels (leveldesign, sounddesign and music) it‘s so immersive and its the most nostalgic thing for me up to this date

Broooo, yours was one the only video a couple of years ago talking about HP games, and I loved it, but sadly I couldnt find it againt until now, such a great review.

Interesting that you switched from playing the PC games to the PS2 versions at the exact same moment as myself.

I will die on the hill that Chamber of Secrets PC is the best Harry Potter game.

As a huge Harry Potter fan myself and also a huge gamer, I enjoyed your video. I agree with you on most of your points, except one. You claim that Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets for PS2 has "a large portion of it is stealth based," yet you acknowledge that you've only played about 10% of it. As someone who has completed that version of the game many times, this is incorrect. There are maybe 3 stealth sections in the entire game. I do agree with you that they are kinda useless since Harry has an Invisibility Cloak, but I can see why the developers chose to include them since a lot of people like stealth sections. Personally, I agree with you 100%... I hate them. But I just wanted to comment and say you were incorrect about the game having a lot of stealth sections.

Why no one talks about the Nintendo DS Games??? They were way better!!

There’s another preview version of the show you two should watch! It had alot of changes, it’s called D of the V on KZbin.

the EA harry potter games, were so tedious and boring as fuck but I felt compromise with them until I started going out to the gay bars.

I remember opening goblet of fire christmas morning when i was 10, my first time ive ever felt disappointed

Do you have a full uncut version of y’alls reaction?

FLIPPENDO!

Penultimate means second to last. Which would have been DH Part 1 not Part 2

I disliked PoA compared to CoS because it was way too easy. I could spend weeks playing chamber, but completed Azkaban in a day. It didn’t have that feel to it.

I’m still traumatised by Filch & the library.

Tbf you probably only hate stealth missions because you're used to them in games like this, where the stealth (and often the levels) is very poorly designed

I know you don’t make a lot of videos and the chances of you seeing this is probably near 0 but I’d love to hear what you have to say about the new Harry Potter game it seems like it’d be the best one ever made.

EA's 6th gen' home console versions are not without their charm, but the stealth sections are BS. Hope you don't like having housepoints!

And the algorithm blesses me once again to satiate my current (early mainly) HP game obsession. awesome vid and was surprised to see how long ago this was posted.

This is actually hilarious!! I love it 😂

Really loved your retrospective! Hope you enjoy Hogwars Legacy when it comes out. :)

Wonderful video, I might have seen it like 3 times already.

Cant believe you didn't play the xbox/ps2 once those are the best and you do use the gloak once you get it

I really like HP and the deathly hallows part 2, there's more variety in the spells and playable characters, although it's still a cover shooter, it makes a lot of sense for it to be, At least for me who have only seen the movies, we are no longer discovering Hogwarts, we are practically facing a holocaust that seeks the supremacy of magical blood, And even while we are in the castle, we are in the final battle that will decide everything, I really liked it, and it also has interesting things like Draco throwing his wand at Harry so that he can fight against Voldemort which is a deleted scene from the movie, as a fan of the movies I think it really did what I needed which was to make me feel in the middle of the battle of Hogwarts like the boy who lived.

You excited for Hogwarts Legacy?

Amazing video mate

Found this after checking out your retrospective and it was great to see your views on this subject. Personally ive always had some issues with rowling never really trusting her since her first comments on dumbledore saying he was gay etc it truly only seemed like she was trying to virtue signal due to it never making sense as she never hinted even in the short term that he was only saying it when prompted then running with it. If u checked out her tweets as time goes on she either said stupid stuff or tried to seem like an inclusive person which ive learned through years on twitter is usually done by those that hold some very narrow views which showed here during her tweets on trans community. Personally as someone like me who is bi i could care less if some ones a girl or a guy with the advance of tech we all now have that choice and every human has that basic right to choose it due to this advance. Dont get me wrong i still think 2 basics is that those who are trans should warn people if they are pre op due to some people being straight which is not cool to do to them and also that those who used to be men should not fight women in things like boxing or ufc because i think that would still be unfair since its been proven to not be fair. I personally just draw the line at these two things due to the fact that both effect other people directly unlike the actual change which is a personal journey THAT SHOULD BE YOUR OWN CHOICE and to deny their humanity is truthfully the worst thing she did to them which hurts since alot of the frame work of the series is about inclusion.

Trueeee the stealth missions in the first game were nerve-wracking, but I had the sorcerer's stone, I also remember I kept playing the goblet of fire's demo on pc, I miss those days

Order of the Phoenix was one of my favorite games I ever played as a kid. Wish I still had my ps2, or that they would remaster it. So much fun adventuring over such an expansive map and landscape

This showed up in my recs, I loved HP 1 for PC

i have not played part 1 but i thought that part 2 was good and made it feel more dark like the film and book

Hey, thank you for making this video love ❤️

Hey, we should do a HP Collab 😊 because I, like you, have never found a bigger fan than I 👍

man I cant wait for Hogwarts Legacy

HP PC gang rise up

Thanks for such a passionate review. I never got into this game back in the day but your review definitely got me wanting to go out and buy this for my older consoles just to try it out.

Good video but you can’t call it a retrospective and miss out Ps1 and Xbox and also skip the superior console version of Chamber while also missing World Cup,Hallows 2 and games like HP Kinect and the Ps book game

If you want to play these games I’d strongly recommend the Xbox Versions of all the games they all work on 1 console plus you get the better gameplay of 3 in 1 and 2

'Very white, very heterosexual series' - yeah, I imagine it would be, given that the series is set in Britain (90%-95% white when the series was set) and the vast majority of people are heterosexual (although sexualities of characters are rarely discussed). The orgy thing with Hufflepuff is false, by the way. And of course Rowling's criticisms of anti-semitism would have died away after Corbyn ceased to be leader of the Labour Party. He was the reason for it. His successor is trying to eliminate anti-semitism in the Labour Party. I doubt that the Tories and UKIP have been worse than Labour on anti-semitism, given that the ECHR found Labour acted 'unlawfully' on multiple accounts in this regard, while the other two have never even shown behaviour to be worthy of an investigation. Er...you say this is a persuasive essay? Your disagreement with Rowling on transgender issues starts with an ad hominem (TERFs and attacking a supposed lack of education), then you claim Rowling's essay contains 'debunked lies', without giving examples. Apparently scientific studies provided by Rowling have been debunked, again you don't list examples. This is the opposite of persuasive. It doesn't sound like you've read what Rowling said. The Cursed Child was written by Jack Thorne, not by JK Rowling, by the way. Harry Potter and the universe within will always belong to JK Rowling, also.

Here's how unlucky I was as a child: * I have been reading the books since the age of 8 and: - I had HP1 for PC. My pc would only load the menus. Nothing more :) - HP2 for GBC. that's cool. - Rented HP2 for PS1 for a weekend and couldnt get past the stupid washing machine at Ron's house... - Skipped 3. - Got a new PC in 2006 (no internet) and I got the newest HP game! HP4......... And I had no idea what I was missing....... 5-6 I played as a teen/adult and LOVED em! I refuse to play 7 , just like you said :)

I'm literally the only one who really liked the goblet of fire game? I found the combat to be frantic and fun. Is it wrong to want an action oriented HP game? One that you can simply lay back, zone out and enjoy? Also, there's always some dialog going on while you play, and that honestly keeps me entertained as it's new dialog not from the movies or anything. It makes the characters feel more real, as they react to their environment. The voldemort battle is amazing, I loved how you used the priori incantatem spell to attack the skeletons and the stone death. And lets be fair, it's way more fun and original than the third person shooters that were the last games. I thought the story cutscenes were cool, and I don't care if they didn't tell me the story, I had already read the book a few times and watched the movie countless of times! I don't need the games to be a poor man's retelling of the movie. Honestly, HP fans only seem to want zelda clones or walking simulators. I get it, I'm super excited for Hogwarts Legacy, but as someone who likes action in their games, HP 4 is one of the most unique, most actual arcade-y fun of any of the games in the series. It's awesome that not all of them are zelda clones. Variety is the spice of life after all. And I'm honestly tired of seeing how much hate it gets, just because people expected another game in the same style. Maybe you just had to play it multiplayer to get it. Me and my cousin had hours of fun with it. And I played it alone many times afterward. I even have the psp and GBA versions, aside from the main GC one. And I played them all. Even the handheld versions.

If you had to rank all these games from best to worst, how would you place them all?

I got a feeling that hogwarts legacy is gonna smash records because the devs said something along the lines like the game is gonna be like bully. So that much freedom and immersion to be a student at hogwarts I believe will be the game of the year for 2022. And yeah don't laugh but I'm getting it for the switch 🙂

As a trans woman and potterhead, the support among the fandom helps me feel better regarding this

Oh, so you love Harry Potter and you wearing Gryffindor's colors? Pathetic.

I was so heartbroken to get Harry Potter Goblet of Fire on Christmas only to get the absolute shitshow that the game was.

11:40 So the same system that was perfected nine years ago in Super Mario 64, one of the most famous games of all time?
