Become Harry Potter, via Video Games

You love Harry Potter. You’ve read all the books (a few times) and seen all the movies (and own them on DVD). You’re going to be the first in line when the last book comes out, and you’d do anything for a chance to go to Hogwart’s for even one day. Well, you might not be able to hop on a real broomstick anytime soon, but thanks to the wonders of video games, you can go to Hogwart’s all you want.

Harry Potter and the Order Of The Phoenix lets you walk in Harry’s shoes, using magic, flying on your broomstick, and growing up a wizard, just like in the now-classic books and movies. And it’s not just Harry you can assume the roll of — you can also play as Sirius and Dumbledore as they fight Lucius, Bellatrix and Voldemort in the Ministry of Magic, which should be pretty sweet. So put down that book, take up a controller, and take an active roll in the greatest fantasy series of the past decade.
