For the people only getting the smoke:
Trying selecting your own country. I tried selecting US, because I preffer seeing Harry Potter official stuff in English, but I couldn’t find the link to the demo until I cliked on the Brazilian version of the site; only to find out that the demo comes in a “.exe” file, which, if I’m not mistaken, doesn’t run on Mac’s.
Oh well…. only six more days until the game comes out.

Just finished playing – the demo gives you two things flying class (which is just a game of Quidditch vs. Slytherin) and Gryffindor Dueling Club.
Flying Class – The game isn’t that fun. You just use your mouse to move Harry through these stars until you eventually catch the snitch. Really boring and disapointing…
Dueling Club – Dumbledore decided to start up a dueling club – yay! And this kid seems to have a mancrush on you (Harry) and pretty much keeps telling you how awesome you are until you do a demonstration of how to duel. You and Ron do the demo and you learn how to cast Expelliarmus and Stupefy. Then you have a real duel against Ron, then against some other girl. Both duels are best 2 out of 3. These are actually pretty fun, but still easy.
