You don't get much of that when a 26 hour read is condensed into a 2.5 hour film. I think a lot of what people enjoy is looking at the wizard world, seeing cool looking spells, and generally learning more about everything to do with the harry potter universe.

It's just a tad short-sighted to say it wouldn't work with a harry potter film. Lots of "stories" have had to be split up into multiple films and they all worked great. Look at the matrix 2&3, look at pirates of the caribbean 2&3, look at LOTR (it's all one continuous story). But what can anyone reasonably expect? I went into this expecting exactly what I saw, it's still just a tad annoying hearing people talk about how impossible it would be to follow the book. In addition to the ability to play multiple characters, such as Harry Potter, Dumbledore, and Sirius Black, players can also wield a wand, travel throughout Hogwarts, and experience one of the most exciting years in Harry’s life.So many great parts were skipped over, rushed with ridiculous cliché transition scenes, or simply changed because, apparently, it's impossible to include everything.

The videogame adaptation of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix gives players the opportunity to experience one of the most eventful and perilous years in the life of the Boy Who Lived. Harry prepares the brave young wizards for the tremendous war that is to come by holding a secret meeting with a select group of students who call themselves “Dumbledore’s Army.” During these meetings, Harry instructs the youngsters on how to defend themselves against the Dark Arts. In the fifth installment of the Harry Potter series, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Harry returns to Hogwarts for his fifth year of study and learns that the majority of the wizarding community has been kept in the dark about the truth regarding the recent encounter the teenager had with the malevolent Lord Voldemort.
