YOU ARE BIDDING ON: the GREATEST PC GAMES EVER RELEASED in ONE PACKAGE! This GAME PACKAGE is ULTRA RARE & HIGHLY DESIRED by any GAME COLLECTOR! It is BRAND NEW & NEVER PLAYED! [*this was a retail store floor copy, *NEVER BEEN PLAYED* However, the disc was removed once and put in a paper-sleeve and held behind the counter for protection and safe keeping. the outer retail shelf box was lost in the process...?] WARNER and EA GAMES presents: Description for the PC IBM MS-DOS and WINDOWS WIN-98/Me/2000/XP! (*The
game may require an updated patch or may require tricks for operating
on newer OPERATING SYSTEMS. These are available and for the most part
FREE! Typically, all you would need to do is run a search on the "game and operating system" in a decent search engine.)Quidditch, the broomstick and ball “sport” of the Harry Potter world comes to life in this simulation. For those unfamiliar with the game, two seven player teams of flying wizards attempt to score goals with one ball while dodging more flying balls and each other. For those who are familiar with the game, you will be happy to know that the players, positions, and “strategies” of Quidditch are faithfully recreated. The game starts with a player selecting which of the four Hogwarts school teams he or she wishes to play for. Following some tutorial events, they are launched into the competition for the Hogwarts Cup against the other three teams. As the player wins games and completes specific challenges (such as “score 120 points in one game”) they collect Quidditch cards which unlock special combo moves. Once a player has won the school championship, they can go on to play as one of nine international teams competing for the Quidditch World Cup each with it’s own style and special combo moves. After winning the cup once, there are still more cards to be collected by playing and winning as different teams. People familiar with actual sports know that the rules of Quidditch (as described in Rowlings' books) are fundamentally flawed and that the only meaningful part of the game is the 1 on 1 competition between the two chasers trying to catch the golden snitch. Quidditch World Cup alleviates this problem with the “golden snitch bar”. As the game progresses, completing action combos and performing special moves adds to a team progress bar. Eventually, when the snitch appears, the team with better positioning on the bar will start with an advantage in the chase. Ironically, this system rewards things other than actual scoring so in-game goals still remain mostly meaningless (except on lower difficulty levels where it is very easy to build a 160+ point lead and make the snitch inconsequential). Because it is designed for younger audiences, Quidditch World Cup lacks most of the advanced features you would expect in an EA sports game (league play, team management, etc…). It also lacks any multiplayer options other than two player (same machine) exhibition matches Alternate Titles * "Harry Potter World Cup" -- Japanese Title * "Harry Potter: WK Zwerkbal" -- Dutch Title * "Harry Potter: Världsmästerskapen i Quidditch" -- Swedish Title * "Harry Potter: Quidditch Weltmeisterschaft" -- German Title * "Harry Potter: Quidditch copa del mundo" -- Spanish Title * "Harry Potter: Kviddics Világkupa " -- Hungarian Title * "Harry Potter: Coupe du monde de quidditch" -- French Title * "Harry Potter: Copa Mundial de Quadribol" -- Brazilian Title * "해리포터 퀴디치 월드 컵" -- Korean Title Published by Electronic Arts, Inc.
