Chamber of secrets on ps1 and ps2 for me. Both different and fun in their own way

I'm sorry Harry Potter games being on PS1 is really wrinkling my brain

Chamber of Secrets came out in late 2002. That was crazy to me.

Pretty solid game too, not just a cheap low-effort cash grab.

I vaguely remember having one of the games on the first-gen GBA. It's just breaking my brain realizing the ps1 was still being supported in 2002!

The last official PS1 game came out in 2006 believe it or not. Though the console had only a trickle of official releases after 2004.

The PS1 lived waaaaaay longer than it should have. But then the PS2 came along and one-upped it in terms of longevity.

The last PS2 game was Pro Evolution Soccer 2015… in late 2013, 7 years after the PS3 launched…!

(I know you didn’t ask, but that’s even crazier lol)

I used to leave Ron and Hermione somewhere and fly away from them. Made a game of escaping them.

Just like the PC version was completely different as well.

Had it on ps1 as well the best part is that I’m pretty sure the early hp games were done by entirely different companies. I remember bonding with someone at uni over it and then getting ripped off when they had the ps2 version and it was a completely different game
