Looks like a typical LEGO game. Awesome cut scenes and boring gameplay.

I like the Lego games, always a nice change of pace from the blood-and-guts I'm used to.  This one will probably be quite a bit of fun :O)

I can't be the only one here who's CRAZY excited for this!  Does everybody just like 1st person shootin dudes?
 
The LEGO games are consistently charming and fun.  Maybe I'm easily amused, but smashing shit and then building more shit outta that shit, plus light puzzle solving and different character abilities is ALWAYS a good time!  Also, HARRY FUCKING POTTER!

One thing I didn't like about Lego Batman was the lack of Trophies. Also, I didn't notice any real dramatic difference between the PS3 and the Wii versions. It makes me wonder which system to get this on.

I've never played a Lego game before and I can't say I'm not interested in this.

I was done with these games after the second Lego Star Wars game.

I feel the same about this as I do with other LEGO games:
 
I'd rather just buy some LEGOS.

I found the demo fun, but like Batman, I won't play it unless I somehow get it for free (got Batman (along with Pure) in a 360 Elite Bundle, so I consider it free).

 I got tired of these games after LEGO Batman. Star Wars was good, Indiana Jones wasn't too bad, but Batman was a bit of a stretch, although I imagine the Harry Potter stuff would allow more variety. (WHY IS THIS BOLD?! I CAN'T UNDO IT!)

No way, they are going to milk this as far as they can, I imagine they'll release another game with the left out books and then another game with all the books together.
