Man, I always loved the Harry Potter games on PC. Exploring the castle with early 2000s graphics and sound was such a vibe. Of course, this was before Rowling’s whole… everything.
Yeah me too! Especially the second game was my favorite as a kid! Did you know that the soundtrack was made by the same dude who made the Skyrim Soundtrack later?
It’s fucking blatant, too. White British people in the nineties/early two thousands might well have had a blind spot (not an excuse) and not realized that “Cho Chang” was as fucked up a name as it was, but I simply cannot believe that nobody noticed the only explicitly Irish character was constantly sneaking whisky and making explosions.
Yeah I loved the Legend of Zelda feel to the old games. The platforming was wonky as a result of not having a jump button but everything else hit so well.

I remember seeing this commercial in the UK in the mid 00s.

In hindsight yes, but at the time I was probably around 8, so it didn’t register back then.
I was surprised to not see The Sims: Making Magic when I saw that. Figured it would have been up their alley
