Wonderbook: Book of Spells Review | GameTrailers

GameTrailers: "Sony's take on Harry Potter may not feature the bespectacled wizard and his loyal friends, but it is set in the same universe and has one distinctive feature: new stories written by J.K. Rowling presented with a new type of peripheral: the Wonderbook. It isn't a new novel penned by the Potter scribe, but rather a 12-page prop with large, augmented reality symbols in lieu of text." (PS3, Wonderbook: Book of Spells) 4.5/10

This game is perfect for my younger brother. He has been playing it a lot and I can tell he'll love other future titles using the
Wonderbook. No review can tell me that this "game" is bad or good and change my purchase. It is not meant to emulate a traditional video game experience, instead it is what it is.

I'm 23 and I LOVE Book of Spells. Lol. I can't wait for more Wonderbook games. My sister saw the commercial for Book of Spells and laughed. Then, I told her that she can load up her wand and house from her Pottermore account... She's been playing it all day. ^_^

This was garbage since its inception. Sony should have focus on paying FromSoftware the boat load of cash they gave to JK Rowling to make Demon's Souls 2. With enough resources it would be the best RPG ever made. Demon's Souls is amazing but was created on such a limited budget, I would love to see that same gameplay with production values like Uncharted 2.

Sony already puts a lot of money toward great original games like Journey and Starhawk. If they want to spend a little on the casual market to get kids into reading then so be it.

You have no idea what you are talking about.

I bought book of spells for my nephews and nieces to play when they come over. The day I putt it on, not only were they shocked and amazed at how wonderful it is, but so was everyone watching.

This review is full of crap, pretty much like your comment. There are opinions that are informative and realistic and then you have opinions that are plain and simply wrong and full of nonsense. This review falls into the latter category.

I haven't come across a single person who has purchased it and not enjoyed it.

Right, just like MS Kinect Seasame Street.It Get kids to learn in an entertaining ways. There's absolutely nothing wrong with WonderBook. If it keeps the kids busy and having fun while learning then WonderBooks doing its job.
