Summary
The all-new Harry Potter for Kinect video game exclusively on Kinect for Xbox 360 allows players to experience Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and the wizarding world like never before! Through the innovative Kinect capability, each player can scan their face to create a wizard avatar in their likeness – and then play as their avatar in the game. Utilizing controller-free and voice recognition technology available only on Kinect, players will attend Hogwarts, interact with professors, students and friends, call out spells to cast against opponents, brew potions, and even fly as they race on broomsticks to be the first to catch the Golden Snitch in a Quidditch match.

Harry Potter was a book series designed for children that just so happened to attract a much older geeky fan base. I can't help but feel this game was going for the same effect and missed the point a little. The quickly changing gameplay, short length, and active tiring controls seem to be built for someone with a lot of energy and a short attention span.
Overall I found that the game has some Kinect related issues that can take away from the fun, but many fans will forgive the shortcomings these present, whereas casual fans will not. With this in mind, the game is really for those who love everything about Harry Potter and the final score reflects that.
As a game not matched up with a movie release, it should’ve been held back until it felt more magical
