How important is young master Harry Potter to Electronic Arts? Very, 
considering that about a quarter of EA’s (E3) booth this year is dedicated 
to promoting the Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone games that the 
company is developing. EA is aiming to ship games for four platforms 
day-and-date with the Warner Bros. movie due Nov. 16. PS one, PC, and Game 
Boy Advance systems will get an adventure-themed Potter game, while Game 
Boy Color will receive an RPG.
Playable versions of all the Harry Potter games are on-hand and drawing a 
diverse crowd. Although hearing what members of the development team had to 
say about the game was difficult due to the many high-definition TVs 
showing clips from the movie, one thing was clear: Harry Potter knows how 
to draw a crowd.—George T. Chronis
