Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

"...Prisoner of Azkaban is similar to games like The Lost Vikings. Only this time it's 3D and the level of difficulty is a few notches lower to cater to a general audience. As a companion to the movie, it certainly serves its purpose. But as a game that sparks new magic in the genre? That might need to wait for the next film."

"In fact, we were pleasantly surprised by how much fun the single-player game is - true, it's rather derivative and redolent of a hundred other third-person adventure games, but it's suffused with that Potter atmosphere and is genuinely involving."

"Potter fans who can deal with the drawbacks will find an entertaining experience hiding. But everyone else should steer clear of this game."

"After the training level is out of the way Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban takes players through the events of the book and the upcoming movie. The game remains really faithful to the events of the book and depending which way you see it, this can be both a positive or a negative."
