Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone games

Here are some links to games...
as well as some game reviews for you.

I also found a You Tube video that shows
a bit of the
Sorcerer's Stone PS 1 Game
so you can see what that game is like.

Harry Potter & the Sorcerer's Stone

EA Playstation 2 Game

Most of the reviews agree that the graphics in the Sorcerer's Stone game
fall a bit short of some of the other Harry Potter games.
You will find detailed environments of the
Hogwart's school grounds
and a nice array of lighting and particle effects for magic.
This tends to give flourish to some of the visuals.
Overall the "experts" agree that this particular game
is for the most die-hard Harry Potter fan
rather than the casual gamer.


Lego Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone #4723 Diagon Alley Shops

Harry Potter and The Sorcer's Stone Diagon Alley Lego
set comes with Hermione Granger, a cat and a mouse, witch's hat and broomstick, tiny books and cupboards that all open and close.
The set contains 80 pieces but it does have
small parts that could pose
a choking hazard for children under 3 years of age.

There are other Lego Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone sets...
to complete the fun!

Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone

The first book in the Harry Potter series of seven,
Harry Potter And The Sorcerer's Stone
is my favorite.

It introduces the readers to the 'boy who lived', Harry Potter.
His parents died at the hands of the evil dark wizard,
Lord Voldemort.
Voldemort attempted to kill one year old Harry, leaving
him with a lightning bolt scar as a result.

Harry grew up in the Dursley home with
Aunt Petunia, (his mother's sister)
Uncle Vernon and cousin, Dudley.
The Dursley's are very pretentious and proper folk,
with little affection or consideration for little Harry.

J.K. Rowling sets the tone of the series in this first book.
We are drawn to an orphan who is forced to live
in a cupboard under the stairs.
She takes us through Harry's discovery of the world
of witches and wizards,
introducing us to those who would become
his nearest and dearest friends,
Ron Weasley and Hermoine Granger.

A brief summary of this book (and movie) follows
Harry to Diagon Alley, where we meet
Mr. Ollivander, the wand maker,
Draco Malfoy, the nemesis,
and Professor Quirrell, Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher.

This book is so special to me
that I just cannot sum it up in just a few words...
so...

I found a very interesting series of videos
that cover
Harry Potter And The Sorcerer's Stone
here.


Here's a short trailer
that sets the tone...
