Not a bad start, but you might want to speak more about game modes, how the multiplayer works and give more of you opinions on the game. You seem to have touched on Harry Potter, then that Quidditch Exists, a short paragraph about who you play and thenthat people should buy it!
You haven't mentioned the controls and whether they're good or not. You haven't mentioned how hard the game is (a lot of youngsters are going to want to play it - can they cope?) Are the graphics decent? Is the Harry Potter theme applied well? Are there any Mini-games or is it JUST Quidditch? Rather than sounding all magazine-like and trying to sell the game, go scrap the jargon and let people know what the game ius like where it works, what's wrong and in which areas, if any, it excels.
Have a think, read some more GAD-winning material and have a little rethink!
Good start, though!
Harry Potter: Quidditch World Cup brings sports games to a new ‘magical’ level. In other Harry Potter games you only play quidditch as Harry in Gryffindor House as part of the House cup. Prepare to face your own fully fledged challenge and take on the whole world in the quidditch world cup. The game is packed with challenges and loads of background information.
At the start of the game you play as any of the 4 Hogwarts teams in a challenge to win the house cup. After these first 5 matches you will be ready to take on the world as you play as a chaser, beater or seeker in an effort to beat the very best quidditch teams. Each team bears its own unique uniform and also has their own stadium with brilliantly varied environments. As well as this uniqueness the game adds depth by allowing the teams their own strengths and weaknesses to put you to the test, especially when it comes to the multiplayer part of the game.
It is always hard to part with your hard-earned cash but when faced with this clean cut, competitive game you can rest assured, your money is well spent. The thrills are endless and there is nothing better than to rush down the pitch and slam into an enemy player and then to put your quaffle through the hoop to score the winning goal.
This game is incredible at bringing you into the world of Harry Potter and EA have made another awesome game that puts you totally in control and makes you feel like a pro player and truly part of the team.
