    You're nothing but a shitty pirate, and you should be ashamed of yourself.

    I didn't even remember I played these games until now. But hearing that "flipendo" line repeated over and over again in Harry's voice awakened some serious nostalgia in me.

    11:32 The drawing minigame may seem okay on a laser mouse. But this was the era of the ball-mouse. It blew goats.

    Honestly no idea how come nobody has yet tried to cash in on nostalgia for those games, I'm sure there's a lot of people who would love the remaster/update for them

    I actually did the same with the credits a few years ago on Chamber of secrets, i wrote an email to the guy who made the artwork for the Chocolate frog cards and told him that its really nice and that i still enjoy the game every now and then and he actually answered and wondered that someone remembers him for that and he did it years ago and stuff, felt really nice

    The PlayStation One Harry Potter games felt like horror games to me as a child. PS One didn’t have the resources to put in a lot of NPC’s and the big empty castle that was supposed to be full of students felt really creepy and lonely.

    I played chamber of secrets to death back then. Replayed it so many times. Looking back I think it was ambitious for its time, considering the hogwarts castle and its grounds were sort of "open world" to some extent. That really impressed me as a kid, and it was fun going around looking for all the secret rooms in order to 100% the game.

    I remember playing these with my father. He was obsessed With the Secrets, no corner or painting was safe from his eyes. He didnt advance in a level until he checked every little thing for secrets

    I made the HP1 mod that improves movement :)

    The biggest thing I've always remembered from these games were the beans. Oh, the beans. Such nostalgia. There was something different about playing these games, especially on older computers.
  • @JustinQuinn623
    Harry shouting the spells was really exciting as a kid. I remember that in the sneaky part he still yelled even though it was in a whisper
  • @animaol
    just seeing the jellybeans unlocked so many memories
  • @anam00090
    HP 2 is my 'happy place' game. I always have it installed and play when anxiety gets really bad. The sounds of walking into beans, dueling, bargaining for some weird ingredients to brew the potions, randomly bumping into Snape as he stands in the dungeons, chasing the chocolate frog even though your healthbar is full calms me down. Apparently PS version of Chamber of Secrets was the best, really wish I had had it, have seen videos and looks like a completely different game
  • @NieOrginalny
    Hmm, yeah, it definitely seems that Chamber of Secrets has retained the most love out of them all, in general populace and my feeble memories. I do however think I conflated it quite a bit with the first game, I somehow completely forgot or always overlooked that 2 removed Wingardium Leviosa for example. The similar artstyle definitely played a hand, and created a version in my mind that kept better features of the both.

    My mom doesn’t play any video games except these and sonic for the Genesis. She got so good at The second one she beat it without taking any damage and got the secret golden wizard card stuff. She beat the game so thoroughly she spent every bean so there were none left in the game at all.
  • @tonypotterz
    the nostalgia is making me tear up, so many memories were associated with the old Harry Potter games
  • @Doofkopf12345
    Man this brings back memories. I used to play these three games for hours on end with my older sister. I remember how scary the stealth segments in the first one seemed. Fun times!
  • @aelius3805
    Playstation Hagrid is the sexiest man who has ever lived. He could also probably stop Thanos, even with the Infinity Gauntlet.
  • I remember playing the second one as a kid and after 30 minutes or so I ran into a wrinkly, skin colored goblin looking creature in a hidden stairwell and almost shit myself. Never played it again

    7:49 This is why I love older games-- in modern ones lightning is often realistic and thus lacking artistic touches. Additionally, limited hardware made devs designs of the environment be less focused on visual noise from unnecesarry details
