The game was pretty good, I remember renting it a few weeks before the film came out. It was pretty nice, though my only complaints go to the lack of boss fights and the incredibly short story (and occasional poor acting here and there). But if there was one thing I liked, it was the score. Truly beautiful.

Another great thing about the game was the fixed combat system. While you had a very limited number of boss fights, the wand fighting system was incredibly original. Heres hoping the game play of OotP makes it into the last two games. Though, some more fighting tactics are welcome.
