Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2, Mystery Stories: Curse of the Ancient Spirits, and Virtua Tennis 4
Jul 10, 2011The final Harry Potter movie comes out in theaters this weekend! If you are getting super excited, you can calm down a bit by playing the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 video game, which comes out for every major console this week, along with some other interesting games.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2
Following up on Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 1, this game continues to follow Harry, Ron and Hermione as they set out to destroy the remaining Horcruxes before facing the evil Voldemort himself. Unlike the previous game, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 will have no side missions, which is a relief as they were a bit annoying in the previous game.
You will get to control multiple wizards and witches in battle, including Neville, Ginny, Professor McGonagall and the three main characters. Spells can be cast quickly duiring combat, with simple button pushes, and you will also have the ability to Apparate in and out of the battle range. The game also includes a multi-player mode where you can play as the Dark Lord himself and battle your friends.
Mystery Stories: Curse of the Ancient Spirits
Another game in the Nintendo Mystery Stories series, Mystery Stories: Curse of the Ancient Spirits, tells the tale of Professor MacNara and his daughter, Viriginia, who discovers a shipwreck of a ship that belonged to Christopher Columbus. However, the ship appears to be in perfect shape, despite being over 500 years old! Use the Nintendo DS touchscreen to search for and examine clues and break the curse of the ancient spirits.
Virtua Tennis 4
Already out on console earlier this year, Virtua Tennis 4 finally arrives on PC this week, just a bit after Wimbledon wraps up. Play as your favourite tennis pros, including current world number one Novak Djokovic as well as Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer and Andy Murray.
