Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone PC Version VS PS1 Version

[@mauritsponnette]

Hogwarts felt so magical, unpredictable and huge in the first two PC games. I remember trying a spell on everything I came across looking for secrets. The lighting set the mood in every single room. As the games progressed, they became darker en more dull in my opinion, having lost the magic of the first games. The same happened with the movies imo.

[@artemis1993]

They intentionally became dull, because the plot became more and more serious, but i agree with you that the later games/movies becomes a bit *too* bleak for my tastes. Deathly Hallows is the most guilty about this...

[@TheKing-ns4re]

@@artemis1993 Yeah. I still hate Rowling for killing Dobby, for example.

[@elenadehaan6549]

i can't agree on the movies i loved them more and more as they progressed

[@OffendEveryoneImmediately]

Modern games in general, although they look great, have lost the magic and charm of the older days. Back then games felt like games, were simple and fun, now it’s getting too real and predictable in a way.

[@TheKing-ns4re]

@@OffendEveryoneImmediately I have faith that this new Harry Potter game will bring back the magic, literally and metaphorically. It’s looking like just a much better version of the first 3 games made in modern graphics, which excites me immensely

[@matiasluukkanen7718]

It's uncanny how much better the gameplay with PC version is.

[@officialflikz]

Also the games were too different

I Believe gameplay in both versions is very good for its time, I like ps1 gameplay a bit more. I feel the other way around for the chamber of secrets Game.

[@rodrigocortez4092]

I grew up playing the PC version. So Nostalgic!

[@columnedfox5508]

i had first 3 games on PC since 2004 but now i need admin rights just to run the first 2 games it's annoying...

[@STiCKGamesOfficial]

I feel like the PS1 version doesn't get enough love... it maybe looks worse than the PC version but it's still a lot of fun 😁

[@columnedfox5508]

because i grew up with the first 3 games the PC versions would rip the console versions apart...

[@xXSilentAgent47Xx]

Honestly i liked PS1. I used to play from day one on PS1 and loved it. It felt to me like eating the tasty food i never had in my life. I never had good PC till like 2006, back then games like TES IV: Oblivion ran very poorly which i had to replace graphic card for better. It ran smooth, at least inside of prison. Outside had choppy because of loading the areas. Nowadays i like both. Seriously they never got the praise for having different team working on both and they did terrific job. Wish the studio was still alive if EA wasn't going south with greediness. They started to be like that between Burnout 3 and NFS Carbon when they didn't allow them more time to work on games.

[@Legionary219]

Wow I never know what a stark difference there was between the two versions

[@HittokiriBattousai17]

We had PSX Hagrid memes but PSX Dumbledore is equally nightmarish.

[@JaceD4V1S88]

I remember when i was a kid during summer break id go to the library and they had pc games you could rent and install on their computer. Id play this game all day till i beat the entire game. Favorite level was ironically the library level where filch was trying to find you! God.... bring me back to these days

[@krislee3155]

Jesus Christ, nostalgia blast, I remember I had the PC version. Though I was a dumb stupid kid so I never got far into the game, also remember the imps scared the heck out of me.

[@jorgevillaran3748]

I played both and I can tell that each one has their good things... For example the fluency of movement in the ps1 was excellent bit the graphics of the PC version where more than good, maybe a combination of both could be perfect, that's why I like a little bit more the PS 2 version, but there's something that still doesn't like about PS 2 version and is that they where too fast and doors didn't exist, they Just passed through squares and that was weird 🤨

[@jogantigas5585]

I played both versions a lot, but I liked the ps1 version better. I couldn't forgive the pc version for not having the forbidden forest part, for me the story was better on ps1.

[@TheKing-ns4re]

PC has better gameplay though, much better immersion and music, so that kind of makes up for losing 1 level

[@AJDraws]

Jeez the screen on the right looks terrifying

[@EthanW56]

I’m hoping that Hogwarts Legacy can give some semblance of the magical feeling back when I was a child playing the early Harry Potter games and the first Harry Potter movie

[@MarioG02]

[@StudioHannah]

I had the PC version and absolutely adored it. I was actually really disappointed when we later got the PS1 versions and they were… not the same 😂 Not nearly as many details, and the level designs weren’t as intricate.

[@OffendEveryoneImmediately]

I’ll tell you one thing, games nowadays look great and all, but nothing beats the magic of being a kid experiencing these classic HP games. They were so simple, cozy, fun, unpredictable and educational to my young mind that nothing will ever come close to these joyful days. Once you grow old the enthusiasm is never the same, and with all these technological advancements modern videogames are resembling more the real world than just games, so in a way they lose that unique charm and simplicity we used to have. I’m just glad that this was part of my childhood, it was one in a lifetime experience that I’m grateful for.

[@DMurcielago]

A lot of titles tend to blend together nowadays, or they rely on servers that will die in 5 years and the game will disappear. I started collecting because i dont like where gaming is headed honestly 😂

[@koriabrams6243]

I grew up with the PC games, I have alot of fond memories of them. Even for a pretty old game, the first one still looks really good, the PS1 is just ugly.

[@elephant35e]

Same. The PC games were my childhood. I first played the PC version when I was no older than 5 and didn't play the PS1 version until I was 14.

[@davidkapitancik1164]

same

[@gnbman]

The colors and lighting in the PS1 version are still beautiful, even if the textures and models aren't so much.

[@Alex-qt2zy]

When I was a kid, I played the PSX version. Today, at 33, I will play the pc version for the first time ♥️

[@xblastoise9934]

Graphically the PC version is better and we all agree on that. But in terms of gameplay and content, I would say that the PSX one wins by a wide difference. On PSX you have additional adventures such as looking for secrets behind paintings, going to the Gringotts bank, more enemies and more places to explore things that the PC does not have. On PC we have to lengthen the spell challenges where we must collect 10 stars and some other adventure like avoiding Filch and Mrs. Norris or going to the fire cave to look for seeds, challenges that as I said, were extended on PC to justify the game duration. However, there is something that the PSX does very well and the PC does badly. An open world where we can go anywhere we want. That is not possible on PC. Once we go through a door, we can't go back. So I'll take PSX in first place and PC in second place.

[@dust2k13]

I always loved the fact that they even came up with an idea for the "troll chamber" between the chess board and the potions puzzle. The developer team really deserves better.

[@7jpegs]

The ps1 version look like more animated in scenes, even though fell "poor visuals' compared to PC - PS1 version have more "visual fun" [smell like a kind of "game remaster' of period] I love the cartoon style of Harry book covers sensation that PS1 version present. S2

[@drackfreeee]

PC version its cool but PS1 rules! 😎

[@TheKing-ns4re]

The PS1 version completely lacks the magic because of how ugly it looks and how it barely even has music. The PC version gives you amazing music throughout the entire game

[@drackfreeee]

@@TheKing-ns4re to be honest I've never played pc versión, but maybe I don't need to play it. Pc versión looks good. But the aesthetic of ps1 for me its better. Maybe its the nostalgia. But well I need to play pc version to change my own mind.

[@FloosWorld_AoE]

@@drackfreeee Imo both versions have their pros and cons. The big con of the PS1 version is indeed the lack of music. PS1 on the other hand has more elements of the source material like Hagrid gifting the Quidditch book to Harry or Harry searching for the unicorn in the Forbidden Forest which are missing from the PC verison. The PC version on the other hand luckily doesn't feature Hagrid going to Diagon Alley with Harry which imo is the weakest part of the PS1 version.

[@redeclipseprojects9746]

PC forever!! this is a ==the era where PC games had far farrr better graphics then the consoles !!! :)

In my opinion, and maybe it's just because I played the PS1 version more, but while I think the PC version has better presentation in every way especially graphically and I feel out of all the versions it has the best execution of the sneaking past Filch section even if I preferred having the invisibility cloak powerup in both PS1 games, there's just something more memorable about the PS1 versions.

[@TheKing-ns4re]

Probably, because the PC version has awesome music and just overall feels more magical and immersive. The PS1 version’s graphics also kind of ruin the feeling it’s that bad lol

[@robertdeffenbaugh9004]

For PC standards I would think it would look a lot better.

[@docdoc2011]

I legit didn’t know the game looked so bad on PS1 in comparison, people praise its mechanic but without the magic and the graphics, it just doesn’t have the same magic. Glad I played the PC version back then, such a great experience.

Not even this new hyper realistic Hogwarts game, no matter how good it is, will revive the unique moments that I’ve experienced playing these classic HP games. Back then everything was a novelty to me, everything was filled with wonder joy, and uncertainty. Most games nowadays follow a predictable pattern and they try so hard to be real and complex that they forget about being just games.

[@Satrina777]

@@OffendEveryoneImmediately Well, I have a good feeling about this one.. Lots of little secrets everywhere from what I've heard, and that is how the classic games were. I know there was a certain charm about them that can't be replaced, but I believe this be a very good experience, I feel it in my gut. Especially for those who have loved the books and films and want to immerse themselves in this world that from what I know will have decent replay value.
