Guide to Lego Harry Potter on the PlayStation 3
Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4 is an obvious choice of game for Traveller's Tales to develop for the PS3, after the series of successful trips that the franchise has had on the console. The Lego video game series on a whole proved to be a great idea and its execution was even more promising, such that the Lego treatment of popular movie franchises appealed to people of all ages. Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4 will offer the same irresistible whimsical humor and charm that will surely take full advantage of this magical world.
With Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4, you will be able to ride the broomstick again and embark on an adventure that witnesses the franchise in its top form. As the title implies, this game will run the full cover of the four well famed movies – The Sorcerer's Stone, The Chamber of Secrets, The Prisoner of Azkaban, and The Goblet of Fire. Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4 won't be the first to recreate the film franchise in video game form, though. But knowing that it has been given the Lego-ized treatment means that this one will take on a unique approach for the series. The storytelling is specifically unique and takes full advantage of the familiar material that is being offered here. With a powerful list of characters and potent plot to wade through, expect Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4 to be a whole different ride.
The basic gameplay mechanic for Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4 is what you would of expect from any Lego game. You can invite a friend over and play alongside with them. However, there are unique abilities for each character, making the gameplay experience more exciting and diverse. A new feature is introduced into Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4 is the ability to unlock new abilities along with the game progression. Since attending Hogwarts, Harry slowly builds up a powerful repertoire of spells and abilities that will serve him well during his adventures in the game. A newer emphasis is placed on item collection for Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4 though, but everything else sticks to the essentials.
Let's kick things off with the playable characters, and you sure do have a hefty amount of choices in Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4, ranking up to as much as 140 in total. The sheer volume of characters is not the only impressive thing about this lineup, but the fact that each character is equipped with their own distinct personality and ability. Hence, you need not leave any bricks unturned during your exploration in Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4 to ensure that you have unlocked all abilities and maximize them to your advantage. The difference in abilities for each character will also create its corresponding effect on the gameplay for more excitement and variety. As you unlock more playable characters in Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4, you will be able to go back to previously unlocked areas and access items you were unable to during your initial run.
Another traditional LEGO feature is back in Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4 – the hub and spoke system. The Hogwarts will serve as your hub throughout the game, which you can use to track down progress for the story. You can also use it to access the levels and visit iconic locations that were featured from the four movies, along with the bosses that you will encounter from those locations. However, you will be spending equal amounts of time in Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4 inside Hogwarts and outside of it, as well. But you need to always aim for learning as your main motivation in the game, which will boost your repertoire as you go out of the Hogwarts.
The spell casting feature is a new aspect in Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4, but is nonetheless a vital part of the gameplay. Initially, you can access a radial interface of spells and there are a handful of them available early on. You can choose from the spells shown on the wheel and then you are off with it. However, you will be surprised at the vast number you can unlock as you progress deeper into Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4. The Wingardium Leviosa is probably the most integral yet sophisticated spell available in the game, which enables you to levitate objects. Staying true to the concept of this gaming franchise, in this case you will be able to manipulate Lego bricks to create new structures, re-arrange them, or take them down to access various areas in Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4 that you need to access for progress. Unlocking more spells is one of Harry and his companion's main goals in the game.
Spells are not the only thing you could be searching for in Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4 since you can also find hidden challenges and secrets. Thus, there is no reason to spend idle time on the game since you'd have your hands full in searching for them. If you can pick up the four crest pieces in each area for Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4, then you can also get a gold brick to access bonus materials. Thankfully though, this is made convenient by the fact that you won't have to jump from one hub menu to another in order to gain access to any of these areas in the game. Since there are six events for each story in the game, each one will unlock as you progress further along for a nice transition of events in Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4.
A new builder mode is also available in Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4 to truly epitomize what this franchise is about, and nearly identical to the one you saw at Crystal Skull. This is one of those instances in the game that truly capture the essence of playing with Lego, which is something that appeals to children and adult gamers alike. A neat touch about this builder mode is that it is fairly tight controlled. Meanwhile, it also employs freeform building such that it can pop up for specific puzzles in Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4, aside from being used for contextual situations in the game.
Onto the multiplayer, as already mentioned above Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4 enables you to play co-op with a friend. The multiplayer screen mechanic is also noticeably well put together such that the screen will automatically split when each of the cooperative players separate at a distance too far away from each other. And then at some point in Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4, if any of these characters do meet up again, the screen will seamlessly merge and dissolving the onscreen division. For the PS3 version, you can also get a local splitscreen along with the online co-op play.
The graphical quality of Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4 is exactly what you are hoping to find and more. The realistic details on background and environment offers an interesting contrast to the Lego pieces, thus exhibiting this authentic vibe that was evident from the original movie version from which it was based on. However, the visual appeal imminent in the video game franchise is not overshadowed such that the areas in the game are sprawling with sheer visual beauty. To help further bring out the authenticity from the movies, Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4 also borrows some of the music featured on the film to invoke memories from the past, particularly for the hardcore HP fans.
As Traveler's Tales rides back to the broomstick, Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4 looks back on all the glory of the movie franchise based on the top-selling book series. Make sure to join Harry as returns to a world of wizardry, witches, and spells along with the transformed yellow and block characters as they invade the PS3 with their whimsical yet fun personalities.
