The Evolution of Quidditch in Gaming History (2001-2024)

[@ianrodgers6190]

I loved Quidditch World Cup game from 2003 for the PS2! That was one of my favorite games on the PS2!

[@jameslevy8347]

I hope they'll put Harry Potter Quidditch World Cup on PS4 and PS5 soon.

[@BenjaminSnow]

And it’s soo much fun!

[@BenjaminSnow]

@@jameslevy8347 I wish that was possible, but the EA legality will never make it happen 😩

[@jameslevy8347]

@@BenjaminSnow I think they should because some people have heard that EA isn't doing very well recently. And they were clearly wrong about the Dead Space Remake game they said it failed to meet expectations and yet it's won awards. So if I were EA I'd put some of their old popular games on Playstation Store to make some money. It would sense to put Quidditch World Cup on Playstation Store before Quidditch Champions comes out.

[@BenjaminSnow]

@@jameslevy8347 it totally makes sense and I’m sure they would’ve done it, but EA no longer holds the rights for Harry Potter.. it’s a weird legal issue that simply prevents them from remaking or even simply re-selling their old games. The only hope is that if WB decides to partner with EA again - then that maybe will happen

[@jamie99976]

This video is literally 'Quidditch through the ages' haha! Great work

[@BenjaminSnow]

Thanks!

[@DanielLis-f6h]

We not going to talk about the 8-bit Quidditch on the Gameboy version of CoS?

[@Hufflepuff420]

Don’t skip out on the GameCube versions of SS and CoS. They have quidditch as well, with super nice graphics for the time period.

[@ShahrulKurtAdam]

0:33 , that trumpet sounds! REALLY REALLY NOSTALGIC!

[@1speedracer3_51]

I'm sorry but they should ahve put this in Hogwarts Legacy

[@ADK999]

Nah this game is 🔥🔥

[@anthonyx3576]

TRUE. Milking going now is insane. Every genre getting ruined

[@seanteggert5505]

the 2003 version of the quidditch world cup gave me hours of enjoyment, I hope the Quidditch champions surpasses the 2003 version and doesn't leave us disapointed in som form.

[@carlosarmandomelendezperez890]

In Lego Harry Potter years 1-4 you can play quidditch but you have to create it in the game's level editor and in years 5-7 there is a simple minigame that loosely emulates quidditch

[@BenjaminSnow]

@@carlosarmandomelendezperez890 oh I didn’t know about the level editor 😮

[@jameslevy8347]

I hope the England team will be in Quidditch Champions.

[@BenjaminSnow]

Me too 🤞

[@oscarramage95]

@@BenjaminSnowI hope Ireland & Bulgaria are in it, so I can rewrite history. Also, I wish you could play as the British & Irish league teams too

[@BenjaminSnow]

@@oscarramage95 that’d be cool!

[@naveensingh5532]

This is good 👍🏾, the only thing you miss was Quidditch in the other Mobile Game Hogwarts Mystery.

[@BenjaminSnow]

Oh I did even know there was playable quidditch there 😅 I never made it past year 1

[@naveensingh5532]

@@BenjaminSnow yeah well I stopped it a while ago couple months ago at least Quidditch Champions will out rank that mobile game’s quidditch also.

[@BenjaminSnow]

@@naveensingh5532 hogwarts mystery was fun, but I couldn’t keep up with it with the power limitations.. really excited for QC

[@naveensingh5532]

@@BenjaminSnow yeah it’s going to be long wait for it till Autumn 🍂 however, but I think playing on your console or PC in summer can get too hot 🥵 as it is starting to now in the UK. In other words prefer playing on the console at night.

[@BenjaminSnow]

@@naveensingh5532 I like playing in the evenings more too

[@michaelkoliner7990]

I've played Harry Potter Quidditch Champions I'm kinda disappointed in the team size it's not lore accurate It's supposed to have 7 players per team not 6 3 chasers 2 beaters 1 keeper 1 seeker

[@BenjaminSnow]

Yeah.. maybe eventually they can make a true to the lore mode?

[@elijah0208]

Quality comparison as always)

[@BenjaminSnow]

Thank you!

[@julianjacox3901]

Never knew there was even a quidditch Harry Potter game in the pastb

[@BenjaminSnow]

Yeah those games went unnoticed for majority of gamers

[@zavensarkesian7162]

I just hope this game will be released physically!

[@BenjaminSnow]

Oh yeah I didn’t think about that.. but I think it should 🤔

[@shiruotakuno28]

I just hope some of the old stadiums from World Cup return for Champions

[@tugsman5]

I'm so pissed and disappointed in Quidditch champions. Waited almost 20yrs for such trash is offensive. Terrible ball handling, can't pick it up when you're on it, diving over it. Not having 2 beaters is rude. Not having the snitch be worth 150pts and end the game is rude (at least for Campaign, I can see why they don't online). No combo moves is the biggest letdown. Bulgaria and Ireland not being in the game for World Cup is criminal. Overall terrible. I thought they'd take 2003's game and make it even better, but it's worse. HOW?!?!

[@KBaby8673]

This is a genuinely informative and cool video! Well done :)

[@BenjaminSnow]

Glad you liked it!

[@ImVexuli]

5:08 hahaha Ben.. I hate to break it to you... but your Friends who sign your paychecks over at WB just said "Nah, we'll just re-make Quidditch World Cup, Over Charge for it, and not improve on ANY of the flying mechanics. Stop shilling for them. You're better than that. Be critical.

[@BenjaminSnow]

@@ImVexuli in what fucking wonderland do you live buddy 👀

[@ethanhughes94]

Hola a todos. Solo quiero advertir a cualquiera que se apgue demaciado a los juegos de WB. Si sienteb que no esran ganando dinero, cerraran el juego sin tener en cuenta el tiempo y el dinero invertido. Sinolente decidieron cerrar los servidores de Harry Potter: Magic Awakened dejando a los jugadores sin opciones para disfrutar de un juego wue muchos le han invertido horas. Asi wue los convoco para que no compren esta nuevs entrega de Quidditch

[@dreamguardian8320]

I sure hope the upcoming 2024 game will be a good one.

[@BenjaminSnow]

🤞

[@samuelnewton5433]

I loved playing quidditch world cup on my gameboy advance

[@gx2886]

Honestly, the half blood prince broom flying seemed the most dynamic and realistic out all of them.

[@BenjaminSnow]

@@gx2886 at the time, graphics wise for sure!
