There are a number of new photos online this evening from the upcoming “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” video game. The eighteen new photos appeared online and show shots of the video game in action along with some interesting pictures from the various scenes from the Play Station 2 platform. This set of images also includes more shots of the Hogwarts grounds, the Potions classroom, and more. As we reported previously, the video game will be released in November and is available via our very own Cauldron Shop on the PS3, PS2, Nintendo DS, Sony PSP and XBOX360, PC, and Wii platforms.

This looks awesome! But still I think that the graphics aren’t as good in this game as they were in OOtP

Cool! I hope actual game will not look this bad when played on a good platform… gaming technologies are on a peak these days, and Harry Potter games should be in the best quality of the time… as they give the player a chance to get inside his/her favorite character and explore the fascinating world in real…..

The graphics look bad cus the screens are from the ps2 version. If you look at the titles for each picture it says ps2 in brackets.

I’m not impressed… I know the graphics are from PS2 but come on, I have Prisoner on PS2 and it looked WAY better than this. The graphics look as rough and angular as they did for the CoS game! And Harry looks so bad, I can’t believe the look of this game after the OotP game (which made up for in graphics what it lacked in innovative gameplay, imo).

Doesn’t look like Ron and Hermione’s gonna run around with Harry this time, does it? Too bad, I liked their comments! Especially Ron’s :D

Well, I’d rather have bad graphics if it means that the gameplay will actually be good. They seem to spend so much time making it Really Look and Feel Like Hogwarts that the controls suck and the game itself is boring, short, and way too easy.

The graphics and layout look the same as OOTP so lets hope they have better game play (online on some formats?) Ron and Hermione’s comments drove me mad in the last game (bashing them with benches was a highlight). The duelling club looks dull too. I would love to have it MUD though.

Fingers crossed.
