While it’s not technically a tie-in game, I was pretty bummed to see that Quidditch World Cup wasn’t included. I had a blast with that game.

This ranking is absolutely perfect. I kinda expected CoS for PS2 to win and was pleasantly surprised to see the PC version come on top, as that is the one I voted for, and with the difference being so narrow I guess my vote counted for the best 😃

[@FrostRager]

I gotta be fair here. I went for the pc version cuz I never played the ps2 version since I only know about differences since these vids. I did play all harry potters on pc though until part 1 midway trough I'm planning on going trough them soon enough.

[@RetroSmoo]

I've played both and still prefer the PC version. The PS2 version is great but felt short and easy in the last half of the game whereas the PC version still had challenges

[@fictionalmediabully9830]

@@RetroSmoo They're both about on par with each other, but the PC version does have superior game design, so it wins in gameplay. :)

[@MsSirAndy]

It's good, but not perfect IMHO. HP1 PS1 ranked above HP2 PS1 is a joke, and HP1 on PC being on A is an overstatement, since this game was an experiment and pretty rushed, virtually no open world, rushed story etc.... Order of Phoenix should be higher than just B grade, it should be at least on A! The rest of the rankings is okay!

[@Sebulba2000]

Honestly, Chamber of Secrets and Philosopher's Stone for PS2 are probably one of my least favorite HP games, mainly because of awkward controls, too much stealth, repetetiveness and overally, the PC and even the PS1 versions (which I adore) felt more dynamic and responsive to play. Sure, the PS2 games look great, but that's the only thing I can give the games credit for to be honest

[@foghornfoggyface]

The prefects in Chamber of Secrets used to scare the shit out of me as a kid. I was overcome with dread anytime I had to go through the reading room. Those phrases like "Hey! You!", "What was that!" and "I must be hearing things.." are forever etched in my mind haha

[@ZeronosRX]

Over time, what made me feel disenchanted with continuing to play HP games was that after game 3, the games became more like the aesthetics of the movies and not the books, with that atmosphere of a magical and cartoon world independent of the movies. I abandoned the HP games after "Goblet" and I have only the trilogy as my favorites.

[@izaaak281]

So true. Style is extremely important, Harry Potter is supposed to be a magical Wonderland, with magical colors and unique character designs. After said game it got more bland and too realistic colors/lighting plus they became "movie copies" i personally feel. The games should give their own witty interpretation of the books if you ask me. The new game that's coming looks fantastic though, it manages to be realistic but also magical and vibrant from what I've seen.

[@cubedmelons876]

Goblet was a flop for sure. I remember as a kid thinking "Is it just me, or does this game actually kinda suck compared to the first 3?" Then this year I looked up these games on the internet and felt vindicated learning that everyone else hated Goblet as well.

[@Foxxionly]

@@cubedmelons876 definitely wasn't just you, I felt pretty much the same. As much as yet another 3D adventure game reusing the same formula as the first three games would seem quite boring, the Goblet of Fire seemed like something too much different and I have not even played anything past 'the trilogy'.

[@xKarenWalkerx]

Chamber of secrets was absolutely stunning. I was in 6th grade and played it every day for a year. I remember how beautiful the castle was, the spells, the game wasn’t too hard but you also required you use all the acquired skills and spells as you learned more and more. I’ll never forget flying in quidditch. It was very beautifully design, immersive, a bit spooky, Al while still being true to the movie. The forest levels with the spiders still haunts me to this day. I look back on it as one of my favorite games of all time. EA got it right with CoS for the consoles and PC. PC looks much better, yes, but I’ve always been a console kid.

[@akmedullahazebashani9247]

The games where generally scary when I was like 5. I went into the forbidden forest a scared child and left as a grown man

[@DreadKyller]

The only potential issue with this ranking is that people only voted for their favorite. So while the top ranked games are basically untouched, the games further down the list may have moved some positions based on the second, third, fourth, etc votes of the 60+% of people who voted for ones further up the list. Furthermore since the top two games were so close, the second or third favorite votes of other voters may have flipped their rankings. Either way this is an interesting list and reflects pretty well what I would have expected.

The best handheld Harry Potter game is Chamber of Secrets on Game Boy Color. I just appreciate that the developers even had the idea to turn Harry Potter into a turn-based RPG and they pulled it off excellently. Philosopher’s Stone on GBC was also great but CoS improved all of its flaws, such as multiple party members. The sprite work is lovely and the layout of Hogwarts is imaginative and a joy to explore. I always loved the shortcuts in the castles and all the hidden item cubbyholes. On the other hand, the worst handheld games are the DS ones, they completely loose all of the charm that the GBC games have.

[@SirDuncan13]

Not enough people played this game :(. Had they, it would have been #1!

[@RetroSmoo]

Half blood prince on psp was pretty bad I went to the shop to get my money back lol I think it's similar to the ds version tho

[@Espadasilenciosa]

I agree with you, they're great RPGs. I would dare to say Chamber of Secrets (GBC) is better than its sequel Prisoner of Azkaban (GBA). Prisoner of Azkaban may have better graphics but the artistic design feels worse: too blurry, without the charm of pixelart. Hogwarts has a worse design and the puzzles felt cheap for me, almost a waste of time (far from Golden Sun or Mario & Luigi). I couldn't finish it.

[@maskedmonster]

Based, Chamber of Secrets - GBC is the best

[@straightoutta6045]

prisoners of azakaban on GBA is made by the same developers

[@busyak]

Not sure why but I was so very happy to see that CoS PC is the winner - always felt like I was in a tiny niche of people who love and remember that game. I replay it every year! The Folio Magi theme is still so magical. Thanks for these videos!

[@natef1212]

Can you link the theme

[@AFake_Human]

It is one of my favorite games ever, nostalgia definitely playing a part. I replayed it not that long ago, and found many secrets I had never found before. Also checked out some stuff in the game that is not actually accessible without using cheats. There are some cool stuff not used, a full extra course (like the classes) in the Gryffindor Common Room for example.

[@DirtyFan2]

It was my childhood game too, i loved getting lost around the castle and just find secret rooms. I just actually found out that HP 1 and 2 for PC might even be better, i so wanna try them even though i'm an adult now xD

[@GinoCyroNL]

Great video! HP2 for the PC deserves the high place on the list. As for the handheld versions... I absolutely loved the HP1/HP2 for the GBC for my own weird nostalgic feelings. But the best handheld is easily HP3 on the GBA! The GBA version refined the concept from the first two on GBC, graphics are beautifull and the way you can choose your own path at the end gave it a great replay value. Easily some of the very few games i played obsessively as a kid. Just magic!

I've only seen one of those games being played before and it's the PC Sorcerer's Stone which my brothers played when they were kids and replayed when they were teens. It was really fun and I'm happy to see it being one of the highly voted ones. It was nice that one of the people who worked on the games was informed of the results though.

[@skadooshle]

Chamber of Secrets for GBC was my first ever introduction to turn based combat. The ability to level up spells was amazing, especially when you consider the fact that you are playing as a wizarding student who is at school to improve your skills! Lastly, the soundtrack, though on Gameboy, is so memorable that it still gets stuck in my head 20 years later.

[@CheyziEdits]

It was the first game I ever played in my life, I was so amazed at leveling up my spells, exploring hogwarts, attending classes. Even today I play it on my phone, it's so incredible fun

[@the-champions1066]

Nice video to finish this serie of videos. It’s a pretty accurate list in my opinion. I’m so glad that Chamber of Secrets and Prisoner of Azkaban got the recognition they both deserved. Especially, Chamber of Secrets for PS2, as it was my firsts videogame ever and I enjoyed so so much. Good job, as always, Flandrew!

[@marissaschad]

The thing that is so sad about Goblet of Fire is that it had so much potential to be amazing because of the Triwizard tournament. Those levels would have been amazing if created with the same layout of the first three games.

[@shawbag11]

Its what annoyed me soo much back in the day. when i was gorwing up i actuly played the games before watching the films but for goblit i actuly sore the film first and i remember thinking how cool the tornament is gonna be to play in the game. little did i know the game is basicly just a disscount lego game witch threw out everything good about the original 3

[@MiSt3300]

Same for me. That happened because EA chucked Know Wonder out of the development cycle, and they really made the first three games so well. It would have been amazing to see what would Know Wonder have done with goblet of fire if they still could develop the HP games

[@ThunderDragonRandy]

I never seen what the Goblet of Fire video game looked like until now and I feel disappointed. I loved the Triwizard Tournament in the Goblet of Fire novel and movie (my favorite Harry Potter novel) and I was wondering how well the video game adaptation would adapt the tournament.

[@imgonnagetbanned]

I have very fond memories of playing HP2 on GBA, pulling all those levers and walking through the seemingly floating-in-the-abyss hallways throughout the castle (sort of Diablo 2-esque). Replaying it recently, a lot of it was more tedious than I remembered, but is still a solid game and doesn't cause too much frustration! That's my vote.

[@Oppersimp]

Forgot this even existed! Had a great time with this game despite not playing it as much as the HP2 PC-version.

[@FlorimonR]

Probably the best HP games for the content.

[@AL-nv4gk]

[@user-wg3zr]

The first two games for PC were MAGIC MAGIC MAGIC. Replayed them 100000 times. My childhood

[@CarthagoMike]

I am pretty happy yet surprised my favourite and pick got first place, especially since my friends who grew up with Harry Potter mostly preferred the Prisoner of Azkaban PC game. Yet greatest of all is that I see my love for the first three games, the 'OG trilogy', reflected by the community. I always thought that the games getting duller and less interesting had to do with me growing up, but your videos over the past few months have shown me that these games were just a reflection of the dark road EA was going down on over the years, rather than me growing up. I am looking forward to the handheld rankings, as well as what your future video projects will bring us!

[@Sebulba2000]

Yeah, as much as I love the Prisoner of Azkaban PC, that game is a downgrade to the Chamber of Secrets PC. My main problem is the length and a bigger castle that feels more hollow, because of some floors being straight up empty. Also, I really don't like, that spells are not being used apart from classrooms (in 90% of cases). In the Chamber of Secrets you had all those Spongify plates or Diffindo spider webs everywhere around Hogwarts and discovering new secrets with new learnt spells felt really satisfying. In the PoA, you can basically get all the secrets right away and it ruins all the charm. Although, the portrait passwords were a neat idea. Shame, it's like they did not have enough time for the production. It's weird, because they had an extra year, but then again, they were also working on a Brother Bear game, which came out in 2003, so that may be the reason

[@Kevin-zd5bi]

I never read a single Harry Potter book, saw a single Harry Potter movie, or played a single Harry Potter game, but I've been here for this entire series. I think that's the highest compliment I can give the work you do for the writing and presentation of these videos.

Gof was the worst game by far i still think hallows part 1 and 2 only beat it by one spot cus they where still boring 3rd person shooters. but gof was by far the black sheep of the series.

[@Daftex]

I think the tier list is spot on! I was surprised to see the COS for PC as the winner. I voted for this one myself, but solely due to nostalgia... I played the first 4 titles on PC cause i didn't own a consele. But I remember whatchig some friends playing the COS on PS2 and thinking it was waaay better. And latter on wen i played for myself, I remember the feeling that it holded up to my spectations ans wishing that it was the version I grow up with. But, whenever I pick a Harry Potter game to replay, I pick the COS for PC because is the closeset one to my heart and it also has nice gameplay time (i usualy finishi it in one or two days) cause I know the game from back to front. (side note, I also play in portuguese due to it being my native language and the dub is hilarius. its a great time) Its very nice to see that there is a communit that has a similar opinion. It gives a nice sense of belonging. Thanks for giving us that @Flandrew ❤

[@arielb2586]

GBA Prisoner of Azkaban is the best for handheld HP games in my opinion. The Final Fantasy-esque game play made it quite fun for a handheld game at the time as well as the story (specially compared to the console versions of the time ) I remember beating that game several times when I was a kid and still enjoyed playing through it.

[@MadaraStv]

Apart from me ranking the Half-blood Prince above Order of the Phoenix, I can definitely say that we all had very good taste when it came to Harry Potter games and it's sad how they seemingly got worse over the years. Now, where is the masterpiece that is Quidditch World Cup on this list, huh?

[@elvisthegamecollector7053]

I liked Quidditch World Cup... I do hope they do a remaster or a new game, maybe one where you could use other teams, not just international ie Holyhead Harpies, Chuddley Cannons etc and play in a league, similar to the Fifa games and be able to play online.

[@jackwirtz5822]

I played only the first two HP games both PS2 and PC versions. The main takeaways is the music!

The order of the phnixe for psp was actuly a upgrade of the ps2 game. like it had more quests some extra parts that was missing from the ps2 one like a slight fight in the minestry of magic at the end. and it had a faction reputation system. like you had to do theses extra mini quests that gave you reputation in each of the 4 houses witch you had to get to a certen level to get past roadblocks of students that wouldnt let you into certen areas.

[@nicholasshort1186]

As far as the handheld games go, I can personally say without a doubt that the gameboy color version of the Chamber of Secrets has to be the greatest out of the lot. It's predecessor should also be worthy of mentioning, but Chamber of Secrets took what the Sorcerer's Stone had before and improved on it in every conceivable way. For GBC standards, these games are hidden gems to many as they were loyal to both the films and books respectively in their narrative and gameplay. Having an entertaining and immersive Harry Potter RPG game on a handheld device was way ahead of its standards at the time. I may be a little biased as I mostly played these games for the nostalgia. I however feel that there's more of a reason as to why I seem to go and do another play though of each every now and then as I have for nearly 20 years. The faithful storytelling, colorful spells (that you can upgrade), and a soundtrack that would make you believe the John Williams himself would have been responsible should he have ever had a career in composing the scores in early handheld gaming. In sum, I'm casting my vote for the GBC adaptation for the Chamber of Secrets. I enjoyed the Sorcerer's Stone for GBC thoroughly, but I'd give a slight edge over to its sequel as it improved on everything on a technical scale and also featured a party-based feature so Harry wouldn't always have to fight solo. The Chamber of Secrets was also the final game ever released for GBC, and I feel it should get the recognition it deserves. If possible, I would implore anyone reading this to play the GBC adaptations or at least look at videos on them before casting their vote. Hope this helps in your next video Flandrew.

[@spyroG3]

I can't tell if the list is very adequate since I haven't played almost any of the games except for the PS1 versions. But if I were to talk about those two games, I would swap positions. Yes, CoS reuses a lot of things from the first game but it seems to me a more concise game, it has a better structure and the story is better narrated.

@@chompythebeast And just in case you hadn't been keeping up with stuff around that game (which I don't blame you if you haven't, I'm just remembering some people might not be as irrationally online as me to keep track of this stuff): the former lead designer for the game, Troy Leavitt, had or still has a youtube channel where he boosts Gamergate and rails against Anita Sarkeesian. Granted, he then resigned from the project in March 2021 when people investigated his youtube channel, and the articles I found back then do not mention if he was lead dev in a coding manner or a story-writing manner, but they do say management tried to prevent them from including trans-options when designing your character (yet it is apparently being included in the final game), so I can't swear on what influence he might have had... but it certainly adds up to deflate what enthusiasm one MIGHT have had for the game even more. Also, went and double-checked the info on the plot on the Harry Potter wiki. The two revealed villains so far is a Goblin who is trying to instigate a rebellion agaknst human wizards, and a human wizard who apparently backs his efforts from the shadows, so house elves are not involved in the rebellion from what I can tell. If they turn out to be involved later on, or if it turns out the Dark wizard is just instigating the rebellion and the Goblin is just his pawn and the whole rebellion isn't REAL and it's just faked by the human... well, that's for the people who'll actually play the game to find out.

Harry Potter 2 on the pc was my favourite as well. I loved the first one, but the second one with being able to walk all over Hogwarts? It was a blast!

[@Impallica67]

You made my husband Gordon’s day including his comment in your video. He literally shouted “THATS ME!” I know Order of the Phoenix is his favourite game because he plays it so much I’ve memorized what all the portraits say 😂

[@Grasher134]

I haven't participated in the poll, but I'm glad that it reflects my own ranking so well. HP gave us so many good games (not you, HP7...), I hope that upcoming one will be able to capture that charm

[@KotoCrash]

EA seemed to really LOATHE making a good adventure game based on HP. They kept trying to find an easier way out

[@NerdyWeaponXGames]

This series made me a better man - didn’t want it to end.

[@sugandhakohli]

Imagine getting featured in a Flandrew Video 🤩

[@sameld2685]

Started watching your serier like 2 hours ago! what a perfect timing for the finale!

[@TheMarcelodacruz]

My head just exploded with the "The Sims character animation"

[@undolf4097]

I played a lot of these games as a young lad and came back after watching your series. Prisoner of Azkaban for the console is the best one. You can feel the involvement of the trio as a team like in the books you just didn’t have with the other games where Harry is enduring his challenges alone

[@noobgun12]

Agreed it was Amazing on og Xbox i did play pc versio as well but it wasnt as good

[@wheelkeen]

The Prisoner of Azkaban GBA version is my favorite from the handheld versions. It's great at utilizing the trio during the course of the story, the RPG battle system is so enjoyable, grinding out and maxing out the spells are the reasons why I continously replayed this game, the story is superb, though I miss quidditch from this one.

[@jusatin]

No Quidditch World Cup, so not a complete list.

[@DankBoyy00]

I'm really looking forward to the next Lord of the Rings video, thank you for your content Flandrew

[@bigbake132]

The music for the first two Harry Potter games on PC and Gamecube was awesome. Glad other people appreciated that and the lighting and coziness of the game as well.

[@shards-of-glass-man]

As someone who voted for Chamber of Secrets PC, I am very pleased and warm inside

[@JamienautMark2]

I’m glad so many people remember Chamber of Secrets on PC I probably put over a hundred hours into it back in the day. I was obsessed and watch the movie almost everyday as well.

[@Highretrogamelord]

i've binge-watched through all your Harry Potter videos. Really enjoyed them! I wonder though, would you also consider comparing the LEGO Harry Potter games and maybe even also do videos of the LEGO Creator Harry Potter games (or maybe even a comparison video between the two)?

[@Flandrew]

Thank you, yes, been getting a lot of requests for Lego games. Will get to them soon

[@VixYW]

These videos are going to set me on a journey to play all of them. Again. I just... can't resist...

[@greenfalcon2316]

You are a GREAT KZbinr and your content and video ideas are just awesome. Im looking forward to see more Videos and im happy That you are here!!!❤❤

[@dearevanhamilton]

I never had the chance to play any of the games when they came out, but I did recently play the GBC games and the POA GBA game online. POA and COS were both enjoyable. I appreciated the upgrades each game made to the previous ones. Chamber of Secrets for GBC had an amazing soundtrack, and every improvement from the first GBC game was greatly appreciated. The Prisoner of Azkaban GBA game had a bit of a cleaner overworld; I loved switching characters to use different spells and locating special items in chests (Because running into objects and pressing A gets a little tedious). I also liked the upgrade to the castle; the spiraling stairs were a nice touch. And I appreciated not having to guess what monster I was about to run into after I’d identified them. Honestly, although I listed a bunch of positives from POA it’s hard to say which of these is my favorite since they both had their charms. Unfortunately, I stopped playing Philosopher’s Stone GBC as soon as I ran into the potions class glitch. I was just too angry and dispirited to go through everything again after my last save, lol.

[@manseldavies915]

So glad you made another HP video! - I thought you weren't going to make anymore and that made me kinda salty :( I forgot about the poll I voted on :^)

[@alexou857]

Hogwarts Legacy will dethrone them all even if its not really a Harry Potter game.

[@NaqimProductions]

I swear when I was younger, Harry Potter games were the only game I cared about and will always get excited if I found a copy at my local gaming store

[@MrWhatdafuBOOM]

The castle wasn't reused for the PS1 version, it's a completely different layout.

[@joshp2080]

I didnt know the guy who did the music for Elder Scrolls did chamber of secrets! what an informative video

[@mohameddhiajebali9836]

Finally! i watched every HP Review Episode and I've been waiting for the rating vid.

[@KakoeiSbi]

I completed every Harry Potter games on PC twice or more. And what I love is that P'stone was a linear game where you can't go back to previous levels to collect the wizards' cards while TOC was an open world game where you can walk around Hogwarts collecting beans to buy wizards' cards from your school mates. I can see why the PC version of TOC is the 1st game because it was such a great improvement from P'stone for PC gamers. (i didn't like POA as I feet dizzy while playing it and the levels are kinda annoying)

[@xBartGR]

PS2 CoS is my favourite HP game ever. It's so freaking nostalgic, it was my 1st game for the Playstation2. I still have it in perfect conditions, awesome game marking an awesome era.

[@akuthelazy7342]

The scene at 12minutes blew my mind. I had totally forgotten this game, but deep in my mind I have a faint memory of watching my cousins and sister play it.

[@izusblur]

Quidditch World Cup was such a big part of my childhood!

[@andrewmathers8327]

I don't ever comment on anything on youtube. Really have to say I have loved watching your videos, especially the ones comparing games. I have had issues sleeping due to life stresses and its been something entertaining and calm to me that helps me relax at night when I try to get ready to sleep. Thank you for all the work!

[@Flandrew]

Thank you for watching, hope things get better for you, mate

[@AtomicDudMan]

The video we needed!
