Game Review: When this came out, I suppose one of the primary attractions was getting to see clips from the then-yet-to-be-released Harry Potter 4 movie, the Goblet of Fire. My kids were beyond thrilled with this game, but let's be honest; it's simply another trivia question game with a little added interesting in the DVD component. And we actually had to order a new DVD from the manufacturer when we found that ours was defective! However, the game works fine now, and apparently they have ironed out the difficulties. My kids love this game, and the only downside I can see is that at some point, this game will feel a little outdated as newer movies come out, and in spite of the dvd technology which supposedly prevents you from seeing the same questions over and over again, obviously at some point you will run out of new material.
