Made me feel full of beans.
Of the five different versions of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone video games, this is my favourite. Despite the grinding, odd sprite choices (I’m not sure why everyone is bright pink) and repetitive battles, it’s the most faithful to the source material, and I just find the idea of a turn based Harry Potter RPG so engaging.
On the down side, it’s basically baby’s first RPG. Losing a battle let's you keep any XP, and the lack of difficulty makes it a bit of a slog.

The answer to “we have Jet Set Radio at home”.
The soundtrack massively outshines the gameplay and it lacks the polish of the Tony Hawk series, so you probably have to care at least a little about inline skating to get much from it. That said, I sunk many evenings into this as a kid and I don’t fancy taking off my nostalgia goggles just yet.
Also, Activision liked it enough to buy out the company and implement a bunch of its game design into the Tony Hawk series going forward so make of that what you will.
