    A very entertaining game and an extremely good effort from Electronic Arts. Unfortunately, the problems such as the jerky camera, Ron and Hermione getting in the way and nonsensical lack of save points between missions do bring the gameplay down somewhat.

    The game might look and feel right but thanks to some glitches and gameplay features that just don’t work, this is not Harry’s finest moment.

    If you're fully under Potter's spell, though, a few dodgy viewpoints won't ruin the magic. [Sept 2007, p.116]

    If you want to try the game rent it first and see if you like it before you buy it. Then again, if you’re a hardcore Potter fan with a PSP then this game is definitely worth picking up.

    This is strictly for Potter fans that love the source material so much they can overlook glaring problems, such as dull fetch quests, in order to get some extra face time with their hero.

    Dogsbody fetch-and-carry wizardry that will only appeal to forgiving Potter fans. Hogwash for the rest of us.

    The video game version of Order of the Phoenix captures none of the magic of the Harry Potter books or films.

    There's no magic in this Harry Potter game.
  9. Game Almighty

    The terrible frame rate, frustrating navigation, and bland gameplay result in a title that only the most diehard fans of Harry Potter should play. If you’ve got another system besides PSP, do yourself a favor and pick up the far superior home console version instead.
  10. GameSpy

    That rushed feeling permeates through the entire game.

    If you're a huge fan of Harry Potter and desperate for the latest game in the series, you're best going with the Wii version and avoid this mess.

    Great graphics for PSP, fully spoken dialogues, explorable Hogwarts etc. its almost as good as its PC and other stuff siblings (in terms of gameplay, the PC version is much worse). The part that saddens me is the part where you are supposed to find four gargoyles without being told where they are. It took me so damn long I almost couldnt finish it. Otherwise, this game is well worth your money. And it costs VERY little money today.… Full Review »
