I can't find the release date for certain of the remastered version. It's listed as first being available on Amazon.com in 2003, but I didn't think it came out until 2004. I'll put down 2003 to be on the safe side. [[User:Hermione1980|Hermione1980]] 22:55, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)

== Title ==

I just love how EA, an american company, made this game, yet these control freaks have the nerve to call the game by its Region 2 name. Get over it, Britain isn't the center of the world. The BOOK was made in Britian, so it should have its British name, yes. THE MOVIE AND GAME WERE MADE IN AMERICA. And I thought Americans were bad about being self-centered...

:On many atlases; Britain IS the centre of the world (the Northern Hemisphere at least). Joking aside: The United States isn't the centre of the world either, so that argument's irrelivent. Being BASED on the literature means the game and book naming is in line with each other - and considering the US name makes NO SENCE is probably the reason for the name usage.--[[User:Kurtle|Kurtle]] ([[User talk:Kurtle|talk]]) 14:21, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

::"The movie and game were made in America"? Yes, the game was, but the films were made in Britain, filmed in Britain, and with a British cast and crew. But that's not really the point -  the whole ''Philosopher's'' vs ''Sorcerer's'' debate is about which is used more widely - and as ''Sorcerer's'' is only used in the USA, the article has to stay at ''Philosopher's''. America may be big, but the rest of the world is bigger. [[User:Cooper 25|Cooper 25]] ([[User talk:Cooper 25|talk]]) 01:36, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

:::According to [[WP:COMMONNAME]] Wikipedia does not necessarily use the subject's "official" name as an article title; it generally prefers the name that is most commonly used (as determined by its prevalence in a significant majority of independent, reliable English-language sources). However, there is also [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style#National varieties of English]] which states the use of words common to all varieties of English is preferred although there are allowances for local dialects (formal not colloquial) if there are strong national ties to a topic. The articles on Harry Potter generally use British English and I have little doubt it is due to the strong association of the series with Great Britain where it is set.

== Hagrid ==

Hagrid is the first character you meet in Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone Video Game or the other name Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone and he helps you get not only your wand but helps you get into the RPG style combat and will help you as you go to classes as well as other things. I have not gotten far on it I will keep updating this and other things while I progress towards the story.[[User:Tucker Ayblood|Tucker Ayblood]] ([[User talk:Tucker Ayblood|talk]]) 02:28, 29 August 2020 (UTC)Tucker Ayblood

==Game Boy Color==
The Game Boy Color is one of the best gaming devices in the early 2000's to play all great PS1 games but portable. In Harry Potter The Sorcerer's Stone or Harry Potter Philosopher's Stone The Game is one of the best games of the Game Boy Color and in my Opinion why the Game Boy sold many copies. There is a lot of hype for this game because of the movie and everyone wanted to be harry potter.

== PS1? ==

I believe the first Harry Potter game was also available on the original Playstation? (I should know, considering I just traded my old copy into GameStop last week.)

==Completion Bug==
It doesn't mention anywhere on the main article that players are unable to achieve 100% through standard means (collecting all Wizard Cards, gaining a distinction in all classes, winning the house-cup and collecting all other collectables) though having completed the game on PS2 a while back I can certainly confirm this to be the case.

According to an article on an EA forum someone said this was a bug in the conversion of the engine from Chamber of Secrets so Philosopher's/Sorcer's Stone doesn't contain enough in-game challenges to give the correct score.  Through a glitch you susposedly can keep replaying the Herbology lesson challenge to get the ten Challenge Shields over in an accumulative way and where you get 100 cards for this lesson you get 100%.

Can't confirm if this is true, but certainly the part about only reaching 88% after gaining all items.  If anyone can find a reliable cite (such as a professional review) this would be nice to add to the article.

== PC game has errors!! ==
I had a pc game and it had errors. I found these:
:#"When M'''a'''ggl'''eh'''s fell asleep, the enormous motorbike appeared". But when I read the description to the 2<sup><u>nd</u></sup> Wizard card, it reads: "The wizard who was imprisoned by M'''u'''ggl'''e'''s for his essays".

:#Peeves was called "P'''i'''v'''eh'''s".
:#Malfoy was called "M'''e'''lfoy".

:#Wingardium Leviosa is pronounced "win-GUARD-hume le-vee-o-SAH".
:#Before the Incendio Challenge, Marcus Flint says: "Thou don't even know how to play Quiddi'''tch'''". Elsewhere "Quiddish" is spelt with "sh", and not "tch".
:#Before the Lumos Challenge, the girl at the 1<sup><u>st</u></sup> floor says: "Thou have a scar after the lightning!". Was he struck by lightning 10 years ago?
:#At the 2<sup><u>nd</u></sup> floor, George says a weird sentence: "They're merely kidding". Did he mean beans?
:#George said to Fred: "Hey, George, we have something to do!". He confuses himself with his twin!?
:#Why to take 3 points from Gryffindor instead of 5?
:#The mirror of erised is called "The mirror of ERIDA".
:#Ron forgets his gender after getting wounded by the chess piece. He says: "I'm '''wounded'''. Now thou'll do everything else, Harry!".

Either your game's been messed with, or you have a poor understanding of English. I've never heard of any of those errors, though quite a bit of your comment was difficult to understand. What's all this about words having genders? [[User:Cooper 25|Cooper 25]] ([[User talk:Cooper 25|talk]]) 01:39, 25 July 2011 (UTC)
:I have a Soviet version of this game and that's why they made all of these errors. They have an extremely weird font because their Times New Roman did not have Russian letters. So they substituted some with English letters and some were made from English letters and/or digits.

== Not one game ==

Why does this article treat these games as one game? It's several different games, depending on the game console, all with the same name. They're just based on the same movie/book.  <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/173.171.216.90|173.171.216.90]] ([[User talk:173.171.216.90#top|talk]]) 16:35, 19 June 2018 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Common PC version glitch ==

I hope I'm doing this right. As a kid, playing this game, in the Lumos challenge there was a glitch stopping me from progressing each time I played. I didn't know about debug mode or cheats at the time, so I never got to complete the game. There's a part where you walk through a hallway, go up a flight of stairs, and are supposed to take a trio of Lumos platforms through the air above the aforementioned hallway to a new room. However, in my copy, the third Lumos platform is positioned wrong: it is level with/submerged in the floor, and there is zero chance of making the jump to the new room from the second platform. I looked online, and it seems quite a few folks had this problem. Should this be given research for better sources and noted in the article?  <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/72.211.255.100|72.211.255.100]] ([[User talk:72.211.255.100#top|talk]]) 02:05, 27 September 2020 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Splitting proposal ==
I propose that this article be split into Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (2001 video game) and Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (2003 video game). Treating games released two years apart from each other as the same game just confuses things, especially with things like the reception sections. There are enough sources on the 2003 game for a separate article. --[[User:Eldomtom2|Eldomtom2]] ([[User talk:Eldomtom2|talk]]) 19:33, 26 August 2021 (UTC)
:I'm in support of this. I'd probably argue even further to split off the handheld versions as well due to their differing gameplay styles, but for now I'd rather keep things simple and just focus on the fifth and sixth gen versions.

:::I think the matter is that it actually isn't technically a port, nor a remaster or reboot. It's a new game based in the same intelectual property. Like "The Hobbit", the 1982 and the 2003 video games based in the same book. I think what makes this situation kinda confusing is the fact that Warner Bros decided to create those next gen games just a few years after the original release. Although, ''technically'', the sixth gen versions of "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" are considered ports, even considering that they are completely different from the fifth gen ones. Maybe it would be better to just have a subtopic in Development explaining that the sixth gen versions were created some years later, which is the same treatment given to remasters, like "God of War III Remastered"? --[[Special:Contributions/200.196.153.16|200.196.153.16]] ([[User talk:200.196.153.16|talk]]) 16:23, 10 September 2021 (UTC)

I am also in favor of this split since they were two entirely different games and not merely ports. [[User:Breaktheicees|Breaktheicees]] ([[User talk:Breaktheicees|talk]]) 20:56, 21 August 2022 (UTC)

Adding to this, I think splitting the articles across ALL of the different releases is probably a bit much. Most other game articles do not do this, and there isn't enough coverage to warrant multiple articles for all of the 2001 releases. However, there is enough material to warrant an entirely different article for the 2003 releases. [[User:Breaktheicees|Breaktheicees]] ([[User talk:Breaktheicees|talk]]) 20:58, 21 August 2022 (UTC)
: The article, even as it stands covering only the PS and PC video games, says "The versions on different platforms differ greatly from each other and do not follow the same level structures or gameplay, with somewhat varying stories as well." indicates there's a clear need to split, which would also resolve the thorny [[WP:PDAB]] issues facing this article.

@[[User:Cat's Tuxedo|Cat's Tuxedo]], now that the content for the 2001 PC game has been moved to [[Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (PC video game)]], leaving this article only covering the ps1 game, would it now be an idea to move this article to something like [[Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (PS1 video game)]] or [[Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (PlayStation video game)]]?

:{{reply|Cakelot1}} Hadn't quite figured that out myself. Since the PlayStation version is the most popular of the 2001 games, keeping it at (2001 video game) is possible, though (PlayStation video game) might be preferable if only for the extra clarification. If we can gather a consensus on the matter, that should settle things more efficiently. [[User:Cat&#39;s Tuxedo|Cat&#39;s Tuxedo]] ([[User talk:Cat&#39;s Tuxedo|talk]]) 20:40, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
:: (PlayStation video game) is annoyingly still ambiguous with the 2003 video game. I am fine with any of [[Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (Argonaut Games video game)]], [[Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (PlayStation 1 video game)]], [[Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (2001 PlayStation video game)]]. Even before the split of the PC game I didn't think the [[WP:PDAB|partial disambiguation]] of these two games versus the Game Boy Advance and Game Boy Color games was warranted, and it's definitely even less so now. The only reason I didn't file a [[WP:RM|formal move request]] at the time was that I knew the split was in progress and it would be cleaner to let it happen first.

::: {{reply|Pppery}} Ah yeah, didn't think of the PS2 version. In that case, I think out of those (2001 PlayStation video game) might be the best bet since casual readers will sooner know the year and platform that game came out for than the developer.

:'''Support''' a move to [[Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (PlayStation video game)|''Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone'' (PlayStation video game)]]. I don't recall the term "PlayStation 1" being used anywhere else on Wikipedia (especially as far as disambiguation goes) so that would feel wrong, and I ultimately do agree with having both the year and console in there coming off as clunky. The fact that there's no numeral following "PlayStation" is doubtful to leave much if any ambiguity pertaining to the console.
