Goblet of Fire-game Options

[Nina79]

It's a good thing that the days goes fast sometimes, so the two weeks will be here sooner than we think. :) I'm so looking forward to see the trailer, and pre-order the game!

And Sriv, I think Dij only posted for Amazon.com. I'm gonna check out Amazon.co.uk today to see if they have put the games for pre-ordering too. :)

[Nina79]

Okay, I have noticed that we can pre-order the GoF-game from Amazon.co.uk now too. The prices are: for PC, GBA and NDS £24.99, and for GC, X-box, PS2 and PSP £32.99. I think I got them all. :)

[cruticus]

yeh, you got them all nina...! Now what about the revoloution? X box 360? PS3

[Nina79]

Great. :) There wasn't anything about GoF to PS3 and X-box 360. If they'll be released soon (the machines), the games will be added to the site, I think. :)

[cruticus]

all we can assume is that GOF is only on the current game platforms

[DarkWizard13]

Well if they make it for the current platforms they will problably make it for the new ones later like they did on the first game.

[cruticus]

i think the first game was a one-off, because the first game only came out on GBA ands also PS...so then the new platforms came in and evrybody had upgraded, then made them again just to fit all platforms...

[Nina79]

I just noticed that Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire will be released on 22nd november here in Sweden!! 39:clap: 39:clap: I'm covering the release, and will get a mail from the net-shop about prices and so, when they know the stuff. 01:)

I think that most of the Scandinavian/European countries will get the game around that day. 01:) Denmark, Norway and Finland is going to release the game on 22nd november too.

[Nina79]

Got the game today to PC and PS2. 01:) Will play the PS2 one a bit today. It was released a bit earlier than I thought in my post above. 01:)

[WickedWitchOfThe...]

Sweet! Let us know how it is, Nina. :)

[Nina79]

I played the game for a bit, it's really cool (the camera is a bit hard to move though). 01:) But I'm used to have the cheats that can help me to find the cards and everything, so I didn't get far in the game! 02:lol: You have to find every card in each level before you get to another. What I can see is that the cards are pics from the movie, so it's cool too. 01:)

[WickedWitchOfThe...]

That's a new twist, but I like it. I can hardly wait to get this game! :)

[Nina79]

Anyone else who has gotten her/his game now? I'd like to know what you think of the game, and if you have some cheats to it now... 03;)

Tips & Hints for Various Spells
This is a guide as to how to use the spells to their maximum effect in Goblet of Fire including hints and tips on how to use them and the best ways to control them.


Wingardium Leviosa

Basic
The basic technique for Wingardium Leviosa is simply to use it to lift objects up and move them out of the way using the control stick. This technique is simple, but effective, also a great way of holding some creatures at arms length, making it easier for the other characters to shoot them with Jinxes.

Advanced
Use Wingardium Leviosa as a way of getting creatures off the path by picking them up and moving them over cliffs or off rooftops and releasing! Another advanced technique is to use Wingardium Leviosa to pick up rocks and drop them on creatures from a distance, this way you can fight creatures from a distance.

Expert
Truly expert use of Wingardium Leviosa involve ‘throwing’ objects. Grab a rock and lift it in the air, now move the rock rapidly in the direction of the creature you want to attack and before you release the control stick, stop casting! The rock should fly through the air before crashing down and rolling on the creature, the extra momentum that you’ve put into the rock will cause lots of extra damage to the creature! Another Exper technique involves one character lifting a creature and a second character lifting a rock and using the rock to crash into the creature!


Carpe Retractum

Basic
The basic way of using Carpe Retractum is simply to pull the control stick in the direction that you want to pull.

Advanced
For advanced spell casters, when youÂ’re pulling the control stick in the direction you want to pull, wiggle it around that point, and youÂ’ll find that your Carpe Retractum spell is quicker at pulling.

Expert
The way to make Carpe Retractum really quick is to pull the control stick in the direction you want to pull, then push the control stick towards the centre then back in the direction you want to pull. Do this rapidly and Carpe Retractum will pull incredibly quickly!!

Aqua Eructo

Basic
The easiest way to use Aqua Eructo is to target a fire and hold down the charm, push the control stick continually to the left and right of the aqua stream to move it to other fires in the area.

Advanced
The advanced player will attempt to focus Aqua Eructo, to do this they must steer the stream so that it is in as straight a line as possible. Water is tricky to control, you have to push the control stick left and right of the aqua stream to move it, and try holding it in as straight a position as possible. YouÂ’ll notice that the straighter it is, the more water flows through the stream!

Expert
To truly master Aqua Eructo you need to pump water down the stream. To do this, steer the stream to straighten it up, like the advanced technique, then, when itÂ’s straight, tap the control stick in the direction of the fire. Move the stick back towards the centre and tap again, do this rapidly to get balls of water flowing down the stream into the fire. This looks really cool, and is really fast for putting out salamanders and fires!


Herbivicus

Basic
The easiest way to use Herbivicus is simply to target the plant you want to cast on and press and hold the charm button. The spell should connect with the plant and it will slowly grow.

Advanced
A more advanced technique for Herbivicus use is to move the stick left and right, which will speed up the cast.

Expert
For the fastest growing speed you can do, as soon as you cast, roll the control stick around in its socket in a circular manner as fast as possible, this results in plants growing in a super quick way! A great way to make a path through the lilies quickly!

Accio

Basic
The easiest way to use Accio is simply to hold down the Accio button to bring objects towards you. This works really well to grab objects while youÂ’re running!

Advanced
Hold the Accio button until the wand is raised, then tap the Accio button rapidly to increase the speed that objects are brought to the character. This is a great way to grab objects that are in danger of falling down gaps!

Expert
In multiplayer, hold the Accio button until the wand is raised, then tap as with the Advanced technique. The players who are closest to the rewards and tap fastest will get more spoils!!! A great way to ensure that youÂ’re character ends up with a higher bean count that the other characters!!


Jinxes

Basic
The simplest way to use this set of spells is tap the Jinx button to release a Jinx in the direction your facing, if you hit something thatÂ’s jinx-able it will respond, youÂ’ll be surprised what will release beans if itÂ’s jinxed!

Advanced
If you tap the Jinx button quickly a rapid stream of Jinxes will be cast in the direction youÂ’re facing each time you hit the button, this means you can pepper an area with shots by turning at the same time as Jinxing rapidly! If you focus a stream of rapid Jinxes at many of the creatures in Goblet of Fire youÂ’ll stun them, which will give you different opportunities!

Expert
Press and hold the Jinx button and youÂ’ll see the character charging their wand before they cast, this leads to firing two jinxes simultaneously. Very handy, particularly when youÂ’ve powered up your Jinxes using cards, use a triple shot and youÂ’ll get six shots simultaneously!!!

Sorry you couldn't get in. 32:sorry:

Hope this information helps you, Nina79! 02:D

[Nina79]

Thanks! Will print it out tonight and try it. 01:) But there wasn't anything about how you can get some mushrooms to vanish, because I got to the part where Harry's supposed to see the dragons, I think. And there was a collection-card behind a group of mushrooms, and I tried woth Accio, but the card got stuck.

Ah well, I have to try with everything to get it then...

Thanks for helping me! 01:)

Your Welcome! 02:D

[WickedWitchOfThe...]

Okies, I got the game last night and started playing it today while the kids were in school. Anybody got any hints, cheats, clues on how to play this thing? I am not at all used to the new way to play it. I liked the first games where one button did one charm and I'm not liking this new way of doing things. Like, how do you perform Avifors? 08:huh: I'm a little bit lost. 05:(
