The WORST of the series, 29 August 2008
Author: simpsonsfan91

The Goblet of Fire movie was one of the best. It was emotionally heartbreaking, and the acting was the finest I've ever seen. This game, though, totally ruined it.

The game is level-based, with no exploration. The entire thing is about collecting shields, which is just plain stupid. And the controls couldn't be more awkward. It's impossible to aim properly when surrounded by so many enemies. When you die, you lose a chocolate frog and re-spawn. So there are limited lives, and when those lives are up, it's back to the start. It quickly goes from fun to very frustrating, as there is no camera control and the view is constantly being blocked.

Instead of casting certain spells that you decide, the spells are cast at random, so on PS2 the X button is jinx, square is charm and triangle is to summon with Accio. But with the targeting system that has a mind of its own, the wrong spell is always being cast.

The level design is horrible. Most of the levels do not happen in the movie, like Prof Moody's training, retrieving the golden egg after Ron drops it down a drain in the prefect's bathroom, and collecting gillyweed from the greenhouses while being attacked by the ridiculous enemies. It's even worse than the nonsense class challenges from the previous games.

Do not buy this game.
