Post Gamespot preview Half-Blood Prince video game

Gamespot have posted a report about their preview look at the Half-Blood Prince video game, on the Wii.

Quote:
Half-Blood Prince is the first time that Harry Potter fans have been able to battle their friends on the same console via the duel mode, and though it may appear simple, it's actually quite nuanced for advanced players. Like all Nintendo Wii games, it's heavily driven by gestures. Both players appear onscreen, where you'll go head-to-head in a third-person view by making specific attack and defence motions.
Quote:
Be the Seeker is an on-rails racing mode that puts you in the hot seat of broom-riding Harry. Here you'll need to use the Wii Remote to point your way through star-shaped checkpoints. It's an odd crossover between any time-attack racing game and Afterburner. You complete the time extension by successfully flying through the obstacles as you fight off attackers around you.
The game supports Nintendo's MotionPlus 3D Wii Remote attachment which is used to better track movement and perform 1:1 motions onscreen.

It releases on November 13th in the U.S. and November 14th in Europe.

We have several screenshots from the game here in our galleries.
