The best part of this game is going around the castle looking for figures,gold bricks and extras.

It's (almost) Perfect! The problem is the absent of a detailed guide thru the rooms and levels. Sometimes its hard to find a solution...

Like all the other Lego games great great fun. Not a HP fan but this game convinced me to buy all the films and have HP session so I understood what was going on. Needless to say now a Harry Potter fan. (The books are on order). A message to Steviekid I think your computer has a problem.

Another Lego game that is fun to play at all levels. This game is made for every harry potter fan as it brings humor to potter franchise. Highly recommended for Lego lovers.

There is a ton of content, and much to do here in this game. The visual environment, background music, vocals all complement into a total game for all ages. I suggest using one of the save slots for two players to game together and use the other 3 for solo gaming or perhaps 2 and 2.

Game has better graphics than the prior Lego games and has extended video shorts that help the game connect to the different segments as you progress; It has 4 save slots, 2 player ability and allows for some tweaking of video resolution and other graphic options.

The game options for spell purchases, entering unlocked levels, red bricks and other game "management" things are scattered throughout Diagon Alley instead of being all in one spot like the Lego Star Wars where every thing was located in the Cantina; You have to run around a little to get to those.

Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4 is easily the best Harry Potter game to date, though if that sounds like a backhanded compliment, consider this: It's one of the finest Lego adventures to date as well, which is no faint praise.

Funny and charming; Tons of variety and replay value; Downplays combat in favor of coin collecting; Lots of hidden nooks and crannies

Inconsistent targeting; Random bugs

I was a huge fan of LEGO Star Wars when it came out back in 2005, and also of the Original Trilogy follow-up. These games brought interesting gameplay and whimsical storytelling to life in a way that captured the essence of their source material and a humor and lightness that made them eminently...

+ Fun; fun; fun! + Excellent retelling of the stories + Built-in replayability

– PSP game is overly simplistic – PC game could use fewer console-specific references – PC game needs in-level saves
