When I purchased this game I was thinking it was mainly a game to be played with the Kinect controller. There are a series of challenges for the Kinect, however, the main game play is with the controller. The game play with the controller is awkward because you use the right thunbstick to control Harry's movements while having to use the right fire button to shoot at your targets. The left thumbstick should be available for movement, with the right fire button to shoot (or allow right thumbstick with left fire button availability for left handed people). The Kinect challenges are fun but you have no control over where Harry moves towards...the movement of Harry is completely controlled by the console. Sometimes it's hard to do the movements of the spell casting b/c you can complete the actions and they sometimes don't actually work. Also, some spells aren't available with some challenges. Great graphics though.

This is a must buy if you do not want speaker wires running through your ceiling, along your walls, or under your carpet. The sound quality is just as good as it is with wired speakers. It's easy to set up and easy to sync. I have my base connected to my amplifier in the middle of my room and the receiver for the rear speakers on the floor beside my couch not in direct line of the base. The system has no problems compensating for slight obstructions. This product is HIGHLY recommended.
