Harry Potter‘s a huge phenomenon. If you’ve never heard of The Boy Who Lived then you probably are in a cupboard under the stairs with your broomstick shoved in your ears. The stories of the young magician have spawned countless tie-ins and licensing deals, and this game (and the recently released movie) are just the latest in a long line of cross-merchandized products. But does that make it a good game?
The crew over at TT Games brings a touch to the Harry Potter series that previously hadn’t been seen on gaming consoles. While Electronic Arts has created a corporate carbon copy of the movie adaptations, it is evident that you have true Potter fans behind the scenes of LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7.
‘Tis the season of witches and wizards, and every Potter fan’s mind turns to our beloved Hogwarts. But would you really want to be a student at the school around this time of year?
Today is Halloween, and on what better a day than this could we showcase a brand new Harry Potter cosplay project? While the results of our 2013 MuggleNet Halloween Costume Competition are forthcoming, this video project is something entirely different!

Hogwarts Radio is the newest edition to MuggleNet’s podcast family but certainly not a new show. The show has been broadcasting worldwide since August 1, 2008, and just received its fifth overall nomination for the Podcast Awards. It has just over 142 episodes, an incredible panel, deep discussions, and wildly entertaining segments.
