Chamber of Secrets - good basic PC game
3 of 3 found this helpful If you liked the first Harry Potter game (Sorcerer's Stone), you'll definitely like Chamber of Secrets. The PC version is easy to use without adding peripherals, and the graphics are much better than the first game. There is a nice mix of activities, from finding hiddens secrets to picking up Bertie Botts Beans to battling imps and pixies. If you love playing Quidditch, there is much less Quiddich than in the first game. Personally, I hated Quidditch, so am very happy with the game. A good simple but fun and challenging game for beginners to intermediate gamers.

Azkaban - better graphics, slightly more challenging
1 of 1 found this helpful The PC version of Prisoner of Azkaban really challenges the limits of what you can play without adding a game controller. With a trac-ball, it really challenged my limits! The voices are exceptional, I believe the actual actor's voices at times; you can now skip the cut scenes if you want. There are no more glitches with characters getting stuck in walls or bushes, as there were in the first two games. The ability to roam all over Hogwarts looking for secrets is enhanced. No Quidditch, but you use the same skills to fly Buckbeak. Most fun is moving the little dragons and rabbits around - the rabbits are amazingly realistic and fun to watch. The imps now throw Wizard Crackers instead of munching on your character, as they did in the Chamber of Secrets game. Warning, buy all your Wizard cards before you get to the exams or you won't get another chance!
