Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

"A New Year At School Through"

Okay, I got this game for my birthday a few months ago and beat it in about a week. I didn't think it would be that fun before I bought it but this is actually a really cool game. I was amazed at the music and the good 3-D graphics. It is a huge improvement over Harry Potter And The Sorcerers Stone for Playstation, and this is a gameboy.

Graphics
The graphics to this game are just simply great for a gameboy advance. You can see a lot of detail in the maps and characters. I could see everything while going through the game. You can even see details in the floor and walls and doors. This game for sure gets a 10/10 from me for graphics. These graphics are not what someone would expect from a gameboy advance and I think this is better than the Playstation version.

Sound
Once again the sound to this game is amazing. You can here every little detail except the characters talking which is written down in words which is almost as good. You can here doors opening, characters walking, and spells being casted. I didn't expect much from this game on the sound but I got a surprise by the great music (sometimes annoying but still) and the great audio sound to the detail of the world. I will give the sound a 10/10 fo this game. Even if you can hear the voices on other platforms this game would still be the best of all of them as far as the music goes. You can actually hear doors creek when you open them and you can hear any of your favorite characters feet hit the ground and the brooms flying in the air during quiditch and quiditch practice. This game is one of the best audio games I have ever seen for the Game Boy Advace. If you are a person who likes good audio this game would be a good game for you.

Buy or Rent
IF you are wondering if you should buy or rent this game I would tell you to rent first and see if you like it, and then buy. You will probably spend hours playing this game if you are a true Harry Potter fan. This game is a huge improvement over the last games and it is a great gameboy game with great graphics and audio. I would really say to rent this game first buy you will probably end up buying it just to get everything. This game is a great game and should be bought by every Harry Potter fan. This game gets a 9 out of 10 from me. It is a great game with everything a game boy advance owner would want. Once again I would say to rent first and then if you really like it buy and see if you can unlock everything.
