EA Games has provided an exciting first look at their new videogame version of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. In it, you'll see many of the features we mentioned in our visit to their studios over the last few months.
Notably, the new face scans of the actors breathe life and incredible detail into the characters, whom you can control as you roam freely around Hogwarts, completing tasks and following the plot of the movie.
If you prefer to download the preview -- we highly recommend the high definition one -- use the following QuickTime links (right-click and "Save Target As..."):
The videogame will be released in June, and will be available on the following platforms: PSP, GBA, Nintendo DS, PS2, PC, Xbox 360, PS3 and the Nintendo Wii.
UPDATE: You can see screencaps of the above video here

Hmm, I suppose it's better to play than just watch on a screen. Wonder how the controls will be. Wish I had a Wii.

Wow, this looks 100 times better than the last video game. I thought it was impossible, but maybe they CAN make up for the last one by making this one extra good.

That looks unbelievable! I got kind of turned off the Harry Potter games after playing Chamber of Secrets on my gameboy advance (long time to hold a grudge, huh?), but I think I might just have to get this one. It looks so real, and I heard that it's actually sticking to the movie/book.

Wow the video game look really good and cool. I can not believe they are going to show all of this stuff considering the game and movie will not be out for a few more months, but the game and Hogwarts looks really cool. I am glad it will be avaliable for GameCub and GameBoy DS.

The definition is really phenomenal. Hard to believe that it a video game. They have come a long way from the first one. Makes one wonder what the next one will be like (or the last).

The music that this trailer for the video game was absolutely gorgeous. Of coruse, the music that has been composed for all of the previous games has been exceptional too! ^_^
Anyways, the graphics in this game seem to be absolutely wonderful. I will definitely have to try to reserve the assets to buy a copy of it come this summer.

It looks so much better than the fourth game! I'm sad it's not coming out for the game system we have (GameCube), I hope it's not to different on the computer, because that's the only option I have!

It looks pretty good. but I would rather actually play the game rather than just to watch it. It looks a lot better than the third and fourth games.
