THIS GAME WAS MY CHILDHOOD. So many good memories of shooting everyone with spells and stink pellets. I'm happy to see Kevin choosing to ruin this game as only he can.
As soon as I realized this video is an hour long I immediately felt an overwhelming sense of happiness. Your Harry Potter play throughs are honestly some of my favorites. I rewatch them when I need comfort. Thank you for being you Kevin. You’ve helped me through so many hardships in life.
I absolutely adore the soundtrack in these, one of the lesser known works of Jeremy Soule (Elder Scrolls Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim,...), trully a hidden gem ^^
The Harry Potter theme for the games was pretty good, I was almost sad that eventually they actually replaced that original score with the actual movie soundtrack for the Order of the Phoenix game.
@@SammEaterUhhhhh No they didn't, they simply got a new composer, James Hannigan, who began using Hedwig's theme from the movies but he scored the games HIS way.
This game has a really special place in my heart. Growing up, we were really really poor, so I couldn't afford new games and played this over and over and over again. Great video.
Hell, having a console at all while poor was really ambitious. (Now, there are so many older ones you can grab.) At least your parents were interested in giving you a good life.
As a child that section of the game when you're breaking into the animal shop was terrifying for me as a kid, the horror music gave child me a heart attack everytime he spotted me, it also didn't help the fact that he looks like a moldy squidward.
I think the reason Ron and Hermione always give out these tasks in the middle of the night is because they go to bed at like midday, sleep all day and are awake all night.
One good thing about 2022 is you can load the game on a modified ps2 that loads it faster off the internal hard drive ( depends on the game, a lot of them have improvements from what I tried )
i'm so confused why every single battle in the game pails in comparison to the pure fear that the random shopkeeper at 11:55 instills?? why did they make HIM so scary???
It took me like, years, to beat this game because getting past the Dragon Alley shopkeeper scared me so badly. I failed at it like twenty million times.
I think Kevin's nailed the frequency of these longer videos. There's definitely an appetite for it and it feels like a nice surprise present to unwrap when they're uploaded! If the main course is the usual 15-20 min videos, this feels like a big dessert! If you're reading this, loving the work man
Sometimes I wonder what situations happened where students would rather work together than tell a teacher and potentially get house points taken. Like someone turned half their bed frame into a giant frog and the fellow dorm peeps are like, well we don't want to lose points so we'll put up with the occasional ribbits.
I really needed some childhood nostalgia. I loved the Harry Potter games. Even the Call Of Duty Deathly Hallows spin-off. Thank you, Kevin. You're a legendary Irish Angel. ☺️
I've had a fucking terrible terrible day, and to see that Kevin has uploaded an hour long sequel to his best video in a long time, just turned the whole thing around Thank you Kevin :)
I love how Kevin used the fade effect on the beginning invisibility cloak bit, instead of using a greenscreen effect, despite the cloak clearly being designed for greenscreen use. 🤣
I never got past the polyjuice potion mission because I softlocked the game. Discovered getting caught in that mission took house points from Slytherin so kept doing it & managed to sneak outside to play on the broom. Whilst outside the polyjuice potion wore off and Snape camps at the main door catching you but it respawns you just in front of the door (and Snape) to get caught again
This is probably the best video yet. There’s just something about Harry going “oof” after every cutscene and Kevin making a comment about it. I’m crying
I would have loved to see the PS1 Chamber of Secrets again. Lockhart’s “dear dear” lives in my head constantly. I hear it whispered in my mind sometimes.
You know, I won't claim to be a Harry Potter expert or anything, I haven't watched the movies in a while and I didn't read the books, but I don't seem to recall the part where Harry had to run through an elaborate death maze every time he wanted to learn a new spell.
If Kevin became a mostly Harry Potter games channel, I wouldn't be opposed. I want to see him actually play through the entirety of the Lego Harry Potter games. That would be amazing.
The funny thing about Kevin saying that Arthur Weasley must be a death eater is that there are probably dozens upon dozens of fanfics in which he is a death eater.
With the tree battle, there is actually a "safe zone" by the roots to the left where none of the force field hits can reach Harry and he won't lose health the whole boss battle.
In my youth, I played the PC version. Watching this, it's incredible they managed to share so much (Sound clips, textures, missions) and came up with games so different.
He was so close to figuring out the ultimate cheese in dueling. I used to get so frustrated back in the day because the AI in game can be annoying with how many times they’ll counter, but then I found out that diffindo has virtually no travel time when you cast it. You can effectively counter once, immediately cast diffindo and watch as they completely botch their counter…works every time.
For clarification, diffindo doesn't do any damage or even count as a dueling spell, however it does trigger a weird disrruption animation that every character in the game performs when hit with the spell, the recovery doesn't allow them any time to charge up a counter.
I had this one on PS2 as a kid, and i have a very… odd memory lmao. My sister and I were obsessed with finding “secret spots” in games. I’d get ti the point where I’d have the broom and fly around looking for “secret spots”, which are basically like nothing areas in the game that NPC’s don’t go to, are hard to reach, or maybe have a secret item and require some obscenely weird thinking to get to. I don’t remember the spots in this game, but i do remember “THIS IS MY SECRET SPOT” and “AWWWW YOU GOT THE LAST ONE” 🤣🤣🤣
In the sneak-passages there is a loud sound, if a "seeker" sees you. As a child this sound scared me so much, i was afraid to keep playing. So i just played the start of the game over and over again and had a great time. I was weird. Edit: Kevin is referring to it as "the horror music" :,D
So here I am at 3 AM unable to sleep, going through Kevin's Harry Potter videos to relax me as every night, and I see a thumbnail that's not familiar. A new HP video?! All the love, Kevin!
Literally! He complained about other games being short, CoS has so much content and the secrets are excellent. One or two I didn't even find until I eventually looked it up after about 10 years, because they were so well hidden!
I have vibrant memories of the PC version of PoA, turning into dragons and rabbits and fighting dementors. I remember the trap door at the end of the patronus tutorial scaring the shit out of me
0:17 - Oh god. The moment Ron said that line, memories came flooding back about this game. I had entirely forgotten I even played this at some point...
This and Grand Theft Auto Vice City were my first two PS2 games and I found Chamber of Secrets incredibly charming and fun...except the frequent and long load times even when going from one door to another. It was insane. If not for that major flaw in the programing, this would have remained one of my sentimental favorites.
I remember as a kid, I’d get to a point in the game where I had no idea what to do. I would just start over and keep repeating the parts of the game I did know how to do and I still had a lot of fun!
I'm so glad you're continuing doing these Harry Potter playthrough! I enjoyed the previous playthrough and I was hoping to see another one. Best hour spent in my life! Thank you so much for your hard work!!! ("The Boy Who Lived, Laughed, Loved" is my favorite thing from now on)
i'm enamored with these playthroughs. i didn't realize i had been watching for longer than a normal vid's length until i looked at the time bar and saw i was forty minutes in. i know youve mentioned that most of the time, these videos dont do the best with views, but your hp gameplay makes for some of my favorite videos on the chsnnel. i'm absolutely chuffed you've been replaying these.
Watching this just casually as I do Kevin's videos and 20 minutes in I realize oh he wasn't kidding it's the whole thing. I played this game for hundreds of hours as a child without even having read or seen the movie, but some reason, 8 year old me just loved this game.
"Dad tried charming it". I know in context of the book that means he tried to enchant it but if taken without context it sounds like Arthur really wanted to bang his washing machine.
I vaguely remember playing the PC version of this back in the day. Now that I am older I come to realize that bertie botts every flavor beans being practically everywhere (and I think they were the currency in that version) is both disgusting and unlikely. Old me was all about collecting them though so I guess that's game design for the win?
I used to be inexplicably terrified of the prefects in this game. I tried to boot my copy up again but alas she was proper dead. Nice to see a full playthrough from Kev though!
I've been re-reading the books so I came onto his channel to rewatch the other HP games. And I found this! Blessed. Also whenever he mentions he's 2 years younger than me a part of me goes into existential dread.
Gotta wonder why because it's clearly a lot of the same voice actors, character models and music... but yeah not even close for any of the first three games! PC was where it was at tho.
These games were my childhood, waking up on christmas morning playing it with my brothers. These videos will always have a place in my heart, thanks for playing them so much kevin!!
Finding out that Flipendo was brought back in Hogwarts Legacy made me happy, from the PS1 games to the PS2 and PC games, Flipendo has always been the one Spell that you could rely on from helping with puzzles to stunning enemies for an opening, or even interrupting Prefects that are in mid-cast of loco-moto-motoris trying to catch you.
i currently have the worst stomach ache ever, and kevin keep making me laugh. it hurts, but he’s so fecking funny that i’m willing to live with the pain
It's rare I think, I wish I could go back to that time but this entirely batshxt crazy game does make me wanna experience a time when my only real world problems were beating Fred's gnome score or getting shxt done without a prefect catching me.
Why does this seem significantly different than the GameCube version? This was my absolute favorite game growing up aside from The legend of Zelda and God of War, but either my memory of this is very off or the PS2 version was astronomically different. Love your videos Kevin! Keep up the amazing content! ❤️
because it IS significantly different. The PC, Playstation and Xbox/Gamecube versions are all different. The PC one differs the most, with completely different levels (and slightly better story coherence) from the console ones. The PC one was made by a completely different developer, while the console ones were made by different teams under the same studio.
41:39i stil, play this game on my PS2 and the jumping across the bookshelves was so infuriating because the camera randomly turns so you end up leaping off and having to start again lol
I’ve been playing through COS (My personal Favorite) and man has it taken me back!! It’s scary how much I remember about the game, down to the missing items from the notice board. Such a simple but solid game, I really miss them.
Ahhh my favorite part of the Chamber of Secrets, when Lockhart sends Harry through a death gauntlet and at the end of it Harry is challenged by a gargoyle to a life or death game of ping pong
"There's 2 things Ron loves in the games: beans and sleeping."
Gotta say, the man has his priorities in order.
Hermione could learn a thing or two
Honestly, pretty accurate to the books 📚
A BEAN
Flicking the bean?
As a kid, Ron getting tired after doing one thing was hilarious to me
As an adult, his getting out of bed has me applauding

FIVE POINTS FROM GRYFINDOR!
GET BACK TO YOUR DORMITORY!!
Them boys were tying your feet together…probably got beat up too

The answer is “yes”. This game has actually aged incredibly. The only issue is the load times.
Oh for sure, you wouldn't believe that this is an early 00's release. Graphics are stunning even for today
Has it aged incredibly, or has it incredibly aged?
One good thing about 2022 is you can load the game on a modified ps2 that loads it faster off the internal hard drive ( depends on the game, a lot of them have improvements from what I tried )
Still loads faster then gta5 😅
Gta5 on the 360 for example. It has so many loading screens
Kevin appears to really be getting his money's worth with that invisibility cloak he bought, it seems to come in very handy
Thanks to you Kevin, my husband and I invented and use the phrase, “I’m Ron exhausted”, to describe when we’re really tired

Gotta wonder why because it's clearly a lot of the same voice actors, character models and music... but yeah not even close for any of the first three games! PC was where it was at tho.
I can’t wait for him to get to the 4th game. I would be surprised if it’s more than a 5 minute video.
These games were my childhood, waking up on christmas morning playing it with my brothers. These videos will always have a place in my heart, thanks for playing them so much kevin!!
Absolutely loving these hour-long full playthroughs Kevin, keep 'em coming!
Finding out that Flipendo was brought back in Hogwarts Legacy made me happy, from the PS1 games to the PS2 and PC games, Flipendo has always been the one Spell that you could rely on from helping with puzzles to stunning enemies for an opening, or even interrupting Prefects that are in mid-cast of loco-moto-motoris trying to catch you.
Checks if Kevin uploaded today (glad he's on a more laid back schedule).
Sees its an hour long full HP playthrough.
HEAVY BREATHING
The only thing better than The Sims from Kevin, is Harry Potter. I will never tire of this channel, Kevin is so hilarious
I'm having intense memories from the earlier days of this channel, and now you have made me rewatch you're entire series.
34:31 Lockhart painting Jim Pickens in the background! 😂
Love Jim's cameo at 34:29 . Very sneaky
I had a really rough day at school, so an HOUR of Kevin was a wonderful gift. Thanks!
I've really been hoping Kevin would continue the Harry Potter replays and here it is. Thank you!!
Also I fell sick and an hour of Kevin is exactly what I need!
i currently have the worst stomach ache ever, and kevin keep making me laugh. it hurts, but he’s so fecking funny that i’m willing to live with the pain
I gasped when I saw the date...just finished rewatching your old HP playthrough series and had such a good time. I'm so excited for this yUSSS
Omg lord washing machine is so nostalgic 😂 I forgot that was a thing till this exact second. Loved that whole mission
It's rare I think, I wish I could go back to that time but this entirely batshxt crazy game does make me wanna experience a time when my only real world problems were beating Fred's gnome score or getting shxt done without a prefect catching me.
Why does this seem significantly different than the GameCube version? This was my absolute favorite game growing up aside from The legend of Zelda and God of War, but either my memory of this is very off or the PS2 version was astronomically different. Love your videos Kevin! Keep up the amazing content! ❤️
because it IS significantly different. The PC, Playstation and Xbox/Gamecube versions are all different. The PC one differs the most, with completely different levels (and slightly better story coherence) from the console ones. The PC one was made by a completely different developer, while the console ones were made by different teams under the same studio.
That's because they have the same name for they are based on the same book/movie; but they're from different studios.
The GameCube version is overly easy for some reason. Like there are no prefects outside or at the front of the building.
41:39i stil, play this game on my PS2 and the jumping across the bookshelves was so infuriating because the camera randomly turns so you end up leaping off and having to start again lol
I’ve been playing through COS (My personal Favorite) and man has it taken me back!! It’s scary how much I remember about the game, down to the missing items from the notice board. Such a simple but solid game, I really miss them.
“I know at least seven people that would swipe right on him.”
Wait- Kevin knows seven people?? I’m jealous
Ahhh my favorite part of the Chamber of Secrets, when Lockhart sends Harry through a death gauntlet and at the end of it Harry is challenged by a gargoyle to a life or death game of ping pong
im enjoying imagining kevin sitting cramped under his desk trying to move his chair back and forth. very committed to the bit.
24:28 This had me in tears “WHAT? ITS 9 AM RON?!”
Did anyone else see the sneaky Jim Pickens at 34:29 ? Love the little Easter egg in Kevs videos 🥰
Haha yes 😂 And now I’ve just remembered that painting of Beejay that was in some of Kevin’s Sims 4 videos 😆 In his bra and skirt, and clown face 😂
