CHAPTER 1: Privet Drive
‘ WHAT ARE YOU DOING!’ yelled Uncle Vernon who was heading toward the living room. He was a portly man in the mid-40’s with receding hairline. Harry Potter had attempted to beat his older brother Dudley in the head with a wooden bat.
“Dudley was mocking me,” retorted Harry, who like always, had grown even more during the summer and had a pale look to him. Uncle Vernon, purple veins popping out of his bulging face, had just swiped the bat and began to hit Harry hard in the stomach.
“Haha, sucker!” laughed Dudley, who was still looking very upbeat at the scene. Dudley had grown very little this year, though he had lifted weights and has become a muscular heavy-weight champion. He belonged to a gang, vandalizing the parks, tagging walls, and even fighting innocent people. His parents don’t know about any of this; they believe that Dudley was always going to the Polkisses’ for tea.
“GET OFF ME!” cried Harry. Vernon had just begun to strangle him. He had a very livid face. Harry, who’s face was now flourished with a dark shade of purple, managed to grasp the porky hands off of his neck and dashed up the stairs within a split second.
‘Come back here, boy!’ yelled Vernon as he stomped up the stairs, angry with frustration. Dudley, who stood up from the excitement, had a mixture of anger and happiness gleaming in his eyes, and followed his father upstairs in the same manner. Aunt Petunia looked out of her kitchen in bewilderment with her horse-like face. She has become used to the fighting inside the house, but when she heard footsteps clomping up the stairs, she decided to go check up on them. Harry had just locked his door, and was getting his wand out on top of his bed when – BOOM!
“Oh dear!” shrieked Petunia, when the door Vernon and Dudley had been stomping on suddenly broke open.
“Don’t come here, I’m not afraid to use my magic,” said Harry, who had now grasped his wand tightly in his right hand, not having any second thoughts in using it.
Vernon and Dudley were eyeing the wand suspiciously, Petunia had fainted in the hallway.
“Put that bloody thing---“ Vernon was shortly interrupted, as Harry had conjured a thin, black string that began to strangle both Vernon and Dudley together.
Harry had walked past the unconscious duo and lifted the chair, then proceeded walking past Petunia who still seemed dazed. He knew that he would get in trouble for some stupid magic. He walked down the stairs and sat on the fluffy couch. He would rather wait down here then upstairs with his family.
Sure enough, in a matter of seconds, an owl Harry had never seen carried a strange looking envelope sealed with the Official Minster of Magic stamp date 1928. The owl landed softly on Harry’s lap and pecked affectionately at his arm. Harry, who was irritated, pushed the owl away and ripped open his envelope.
Chapter 2: The Letter
To Harry Potter, Number 4 of Privet Drive
Today, on July 27th, 2005, at 5:42 P.M., we have information that you have produced a ‘Strefonus’. You are still under-age and performing magical spells, which will cause you to go to the Ministry of Magic Hearing. Bring your wand for confiscation, and stay where you are. Percy Weasley will come by and escort you to your hearing.
Truly Yours, Rufus Scrigemour
Harry couldn’t believe it; Percy coming to his house? Did Percy volunteer to pick Harry up, or did the Minister of Magic send him? Feeling awkward, Harry lay down on the couch, feeling tired after the day’s events. Harry dozed off dreaming, wondering what on earth was going to happen at the hearing.
‘Wake up, Harry’ said a person staring at Harry. Harry woke up quickly and stared until his eyes could focus.
‘Hey Percy!’ shouted Harry Potter; Percy looked surprised. Percy started at Harry, then sat down on the couch next to Harry.
‘Hello Harry’ said Percy calmly, who looked very cheerful.
‘So, how are you feeling?’ asked Percy.
‘Exhausted,’ said Harry.. He was weary and ruffled his hair.
‘Ah, well that’s no wonder. I have come by choice to escort you to our burrow’ said Percy.
‘I thought I was to go to the Hearing?’ said Harry, who no longer was slumped.
‘Well yes, but first I would like you to come by our house. Speaking of that, how do you feel about the hearing?’ asked Percy,, looking at Harry.
‘Bit nervous…last time I was cleared of all charges because of Dumbledore, but this time..’ Harry left his sentence uncompleted; he couldn’t accept the fact that Dumbledore died.
‘Can I ask you something?’ said Harry, wondering if Percy really did come pick up Harry not on an order.
‘Sure,’ replied Percy, still looking excited.
‘Not to be mean, but why did you pick me up? Was it in the ministry’s order, or do you, well, suddenly think I am not on the wrong side?’ asked Harry.
‘Well, seeing the attack on Dumbledore by a Death Eater, I came to my senses and figured out that I was the wrong one. You guys knew the truth about Dumbledore, I just merely backed up what the ministry said. Please forgive me Harry’ begged Percy, who had a slight frown on his face.
‘Well I can forgive you, but the way you acted was bloody stupid,’ said Harry. ‘Hey, at least thanks for trusting us about Volde—sorry, You-Know-Who being alive,’ said Harry.. ‘I’ve got another question for you..’ said Harry.
What is it?’ asked Percy.
‘Why are you so excited? Surely not because of me forgiving you?’ asked Harry, puzzled.
‘Well actually, that is actually the right answer,’ replied Percy. ‘I’m also glad for Bill’s marriage,’ added Percy. ‘Well, are you ready to depart to the burrow? I still haven’t found a good housing yet’. Said Percy.
‘’Oh yeah…OK then,’ said Harry, who had just momentarily forgot the thought about the hearing. ‘Will Ron and Hermione be there?’ asked Harry,, who remembered the year before last’s.
‘Yep, Hermione just arrived a day ago,’ said Percy..
‘Alright. Shall we go off to the Burrow then?’ asked Harry, who wanted to meet Ron and Hermione so much.
‘Why not? Well, we will apparate their. Could you apparate Harry’? asked Percy. Harry nodded his head, blushing.. ‘Do you know how to side-by-side apparate?’ asked Percy, to the nodding Harry..
OK then, well let’s go to the end of your driveway. Be sure to carry your suitcase, I can carry Hedwig,’ said Percy, leading the way to the driveway end. ‘Ready Harry?’ asked Percy.
‘Yep,’ said Harry, who have done side-by-side apparition before and did not like the feeling at all..
‘OK then, on the count of three. One, Two, Three—‘
Swishy Swash, everything was going into a blur, swaying street lights until they started to fade. Later Harry could begin to see a blur of what looked like a country area, and later his eyes began to focus and he saw the burrow. His insides were still squirming from the tugging that the apparition had given.
‘Well, here we are then,’ said Percy, who did not seem disturbed at all by the apparition.
‘Great! How long can I be here?’ asked Harry, overwhelmed with excitement.
‘Until the summer ends,’ said Percy., walking towards the burrow.. Both Harry and Percy stop talking until they reached the house when Harry asked one more question.
‘Does your family know that you’ve switched sides?’ asked Harry who was right in front of the door.
‘Nope, they don’t’ said Percy.

Gran Turismo 4 is an excellent realistic driving-sim. It has over 40 real life tracks, over 600 cars spanning for more than a century, and it has a long Gran Turismo Mode. This is the most realistic driving game ever created. This is also the longest sequel yet. Let us begin with the graphics
Graphics-10/10 With over 600 cars, each car looks exactly the same as the real life car. In fact, the cars look as if they are on live T.V. The environment of the courses is also very breath-taking. Also every car racing has reflections which match exactly with the area you’re in! When you turn your car descends at an angle giving you a feel of real racing. It’s also nice to see that the car washing and oil changing have improved; now you see the workers fixing up the car. Now the tracks are also better since in a few tracks you ride up on side of mountain. Also in a 12 mile track, it is exactly the same as it is real life with the graffiti on the streets and scenery.
Sounds-10/10 Each car has their own engine sounds such as accelerating and even going up a gear. When you go through tunnels your engine will echo throughout the whole tunnel. Braking and skidding are also great sounds, but I wished for a better ‘bumping’ sound. Music is great with a load of songs. They have rock, techno, funk, hip-hop, classical, and many more! It’s great to listen to classical music during a replay of super-cars. However you cannot change to the songs you want when your racing so it’s a good idea to select the songs you like before hand. Too bad you can’t honk your horn.
Gameplay-10/10 With over 600 cars, it would be almost impossible to play each car. There are also a huge variety of events to compete in. It’s also nice to just see replays and look at how cool the car’s are. If you’re bored in Gran Turismo mode you can race online and put your skills to the test. Now the GT team has also added something new. You can now have a computer drive your car through any level while you take a picture of your car with the beautiful scenery. If you tend to play with classic cars go ahead, this sequel has over 50 classic cars even the popular Dodge Charger. Difficulty is not too bad either; it depends on your skill level. If you play like a pro then they also do, but if you play like a newbie then they will be easy on you. That way you won’t get so much annoyed that you haven’t beaten a cup since it’s not too hard nor too easy. All in all it’s pure racing at its best.
Value-10/10 This is worth even $100 bucks, more than 100 hours of gameplay and so many cars to choose from you would never be able to beat the whole game in a week or 2. It’s the best of the series because of the new additions; more classic cars, a huge amount of tracks, and just the feel of real racing. There’s no doubt on this one, just buy it since if you rent it, you would only play a minor portion of the game. Have fun playing!
ameplay: 9/10-It's great with new vehicles and being able to upgrade weapons, but it's pretty much like the first 2 in the series. However now you get to upgrade most of
your weapons to level 9 making them able to inflict more damage and have a larger ammo capacity. Also some unique puzzle, not too hard. In the 3rd sequel, there are now
more varieties of weapons and alot more monsters. The story lasts only a max of 20 hours but once you finish it you can play story mode in Challenge-stronger monsters, 1
new suit of armor, and upgraded weapons to help keep you intersted in the game. You can now also particapate in obstacle courses, prize pending on difficulty! Ratchet And
Clank have finally implented a Multiplayer mode that can let you play against 3 other players. It's not bad, alot of levels are in multiplayer and they have around 3 modes
to play from.
Graphics: 8.5/10-Graphics are more cartoony based then other games. However it has some gerat details such as monster designs, gun designs, and there are some impressive
BackGrounds. Some levels you get to see areas where futuristic cars are flying through-out the city. The cut-scenes are fair, the same graphics as when you play. However
you still would want more since these graphics were just like the first 2 games so you'd think the graphics have been improved. The characters have great expressions that
show you their personality.
Sounds:9/10-Ratchet and Clank has great music, usually containing every genre available. It matches great with the atmosphere your in. Also the breaking crates and
collecting bolts sounds do not feel repeatative at all. The gun-shots are also great; you have a sense of power if you use the blitz gun which shoots spread shots. The
cutscenes also have great voice acting, giving you the feeling that you are in the game rather then playing it.
Value:9/10-I'd say its worth it since it's the best of the series, it just lacks hover-racing which was really great. If you just want to know the story I'd rent it, but
this is a great game so if you are a Ratchet And Clank fan this is a must-buy.
Overall: 8.5/10 It’s a great game and all but if feels like everything is same. But they did add new items such as a car to drive so it seems to have made an improvement. Also you get to now have 9 levels in almost every gun so you would be interested in the game a lot. Multiplayer shines in R&C so that’s also an excellent improvement. Overall, go get it if you like these kinds of game. If you didn’t like the last 2, then it may be that you wont like this sequel either.
Welcome to my Runescape guide. As you know, this is an MMORPG based loosely off of combat; rather it has a variety of skills in which you work your way up. These skills help contribute to the Runescape economy. In this guide, I will explain each skill in Runescape
• Combat-This is one of the popular skills used in Runescape. Combat is all 7 of the fighting skills (Strength, Attack, Def, Hitpoints, Prayer, Magic, Range) combined together. In order to increase your Combat level, you must fight certain types of monster relative to your level in order to gain healthy xp without using much food. Combat levels range from 3-125; if you want to have the max level possible prepare to spend months and years of attacking monsters. You would have to increase 4 levels in order to level up a CBT level. Or 8 prayer levels, 8 magic levels, or 72 ranged levels.
• Strength-One of the 4 main skills, this is the most popular as it increases the max amount of damage you can inflict. To train this, you basically change your fighting stance to 'Aggresive' and continuesly attack monsters. You gain 4 xp per # of dmg you've done. For ex. if you hit a 5 you'd get 20 xp (5[dmg]x4[exp])
• Defence-Least desired of the 4 main fighting skills is Defence. Leveling defence is very handy when fighting extremely strong monsters. Certain Defence levels are required in order to wear the 7 types of armour ranging from weakest to very protective - Bronze (Level 1 Defence Required), Iron (Level 5 Defence Required), Steel (Level 10 Defence Required), Black (15 Defence Required), Mithril (20 Defence Required), Adamandite (30 Defence Required), and Rune (40 Defence Required). Although Adamandite and Rune armors have relatively same defence, the Rune full set can cost as much as x4 times the price of Addy full set so beware of the huge amount of money to spend. You gain 4 xp per # of dmg you've done. For ex. if you hit a 5 you'd get 20 xp (5[dmg]x4[exp])
• Attack-This is tied with the most popular skill of fighting. The higher your attack, the higher the chance you have of hitting a number rather then 0's all the time. As with the defence, there are 7 types of weapon material to choose from - Bronze (Level 1 Attack Required), Iron (Level 5 Attack Required), Steel (Level 10 DAttack Required), Black (15 Attack Required), Mithril (20 Attack Required), Adamandite (30 Attack Required), and Rune (40 Attack Required). This can come in handy while PK'ing since it would be no use just to hit a high number once out of 10 tries, instead you might be able to hit semi-high numbers more than half the time you attack! You gain 4 xp per # of dmg you've done. For ex. if you hit a 5 you'd get 20 xp (5[dmg]x4[exp])
• Hitpoints-Hitpoints are the main way to rate your characters 'level' as there is no way to try and increase HP only. HP increases when you fight a monster; this time you get 1.33 xp per hit. Hitpoints are what you can call health. The lower your hitpoints, the closer you are to death so its best to bring along food while hunting. In the high scores list, there is no way to calculate your level so they use Hitpoints; the higher your level is the more xp you would have to earn to reach the next level.
• Prayer-Prayer is one of the most useful skills in combat, but there is a drawback; it is very hard to train. Each time you kill a monster you can get a range of bones. Most monsters drop 'Bones' which gave around 4 xp each, and only 1 bone per monster. Giants (there is around 5 types of giants) give 12.5 xp per bone. Bat bones give around 5-6 xp each while dragon bone gives you 75 xp per bone. Dragons are very hard to kill so do not think it can be easy to get a high lvl prayer by burying dragon bones. There are around 15 prayers in which you learn at intervals of 3 lvls between each. At first you can increase strength/defence/attack by 5%, when your mid-way through your spells you can increase those 5%'s to 10%. By then you would also learn how to restore hp or other stats double times faster. A very useful spell you have learned by lvl 25 prayer is 'Protect Item' which lets you keep 1 xtra item when dead; this is very useful for PKing but certain people do not think this is fair. Once your in the mid 30's you should have learned how to increase strength/defence/attack by 15%! The best prayers are in the upper 30's to lower 40's - these protect you from magic, range, and melee! Very useful if your about to die, just switch on the prayer and hopefully by the time you run out of Prayer Points you would have escaped the area of danger. These 3 prayers also work in the wilderness though not at full extent. They somewhat block noticeable damage that would be done to you. As you level up in prayer your prayer points increase too. Prayer points is what spells drain on. Each spells can take 1 prayer point per 3 sec's or 1 prayer point per 17 sec's depending on its usefullness. If you have level 40 prayer, you'd have 40 prayer points.
• Range-Range is a far-distance skill in which you use arrows/bolts and a bow/crossbow to dmg your opponent. If you miss a shot, an arrow will land on the spot in which the monster is fighting you. Remember that after a certain amount of time another player may be able to see your arrows and pick them up. In all there is Bronze Arrows, Iron Arrows, Steel Arrows, Mithril Arrows, and Rune Arrows. Each gradually can dmg your opponent higher giving you an advantage, just remember to pick up your arrows. There are few types of ranging equipment which can also aid in your ranging.
• Magic-This is a great skill which would cost alot to master but not only does it help you fight; it also can teleport you to certain areas, it can also enchant jewelry and alch items into money! In order to achieve best magic power, you should buy wizard's hit and wizard's robe and any type of staff you would like. Some staffs may havean unlimited amount of fire runes so no need for fire runes when equipping this staff. You have to have runes to use magic, elemental ones are water, fire, earth, and air. The medium-advanced runes are mind, body, chaos, nature, and cosmic. The advanced runes are law, blood, death, and soul - these last 4 are very expensive so any spell requiring these may not be very good for experience..instead better for pking.\
• Mining-Now for the money-making skills. Mining is a unique way to make money, it can be great but as it is getting more popular, it is harder to mine the ores. There are Clay (Brownish-level 1 to mine) Copper/Tin (Brownish/Silverish-level 5 to mine) Iron (Silver-level 15 to mine) Silver (name says it :)-level 20 to mine) Coal (Darkish-Gray/Black-level 30 to mine) Gold (Dull-Gold-level 40 to mine) Mithril (Bluish-Purple-level 55 to mine) Adamandite (Forest-Green-level 70 to mine) Runite (Bright-blue-level 85 to mine). You would also need pixaxes in order to mine rocks. The following are pixaxes: Bronze Pix, Iron Pix, Steel Pix, Mithril Pix, Adamandite Pix, Runite Pix. Addy costs around 4k while Runite is running at 32k so choose wisely. While mining you may come across random events that would cause your pix to break or your char. to fight until you either run away, kill it, or die.
ime splitters 3: future perfect is a must-own game. With over 100 characters, this game spans from centuries ago to the future! A huge amount of details help liven up the atmosphere your in, and the weapon sets match greatly. There are 14 game modes to choose from giving you plenty of fun when you are bored. 10 levels may seem like too little, but each level is huge in design and plenty of eye-catching environments.
Story was very much improved for the prequels. Although there are only 13 levels, each one connects together to make a deep story. The levels also seem to be more interactive; you get to burn plants and move chairs around. The levels themselves seem more creative. For instance zombies may drop from the ceiling onto a table.
Arcade has 2 sets to play. 1 is ‘Arcade’ which you can choose your opponents and types of gun to play with. You also choose the level you would like to participate in and choose from one of the 14 game modes. This is great to play if you have beaten all the Challenges and Arcade League’s. The next Arcade mode is ‘Arcade League’. There are 3 sets of 9 challenges each giving you plenty of fun! In order to advance to the next league you must complete all the challenges that are unbeaten and unlocked. Overall the arcade is un-limited fun especially with friends!
Challenge is quite different from the arcade; you now have to go through unique games such as monkey curling. Now they have new challenges which are quite good/hilarious! And to give you motivation to try to get gold medals, they would give you characters and/or cheats if you completed them! Challenge mode is very splendid; each challenge is way different then others!
Ah, the map-maker. This is definantly an improvement. Now you get to have more varieties of tiles and you get to put vehicles in your map! You also have more than 5 styles of tiles, horror to military to Egyptian. You also have more room to fully customize your own map! And best of all, you now get to download or upload your map online for other people to play!
Also the characters each say something unique, and have some sort of movement when you choose them as a character. There are also ‘partners’ of old Timesplitters characters such as Sockyman for Handyman. They also seem to have added a lot more zombies which is pretty cool to me. Also more guns are added such as LX-18 and Harpoon Gun, Ghost Gun, and a lot more snipers. The old weapons also more detailed now, with nicer reloading animation and just the power you feel when you shoot. They have also added more varieties of levels. Siberia, not the one in TS2, is more of a sniper-type level with buildings to shoot out of and a huge open area! There are also 3 of the original levels in this game: Training Ground, Mexican, and Chinese. The graphics do seem a bit more improved on these levels so its fun to play some of the original levels with new additions!
Overall this game is great; 9/10 perhaps since it lacks more arcade modes. But hey, the graphics are crisper and have a smooth frame rate! More guns added, more music, more characters, more map-maker room, and more characters all work together to help lift the score! This is one of the best FPS out there, excellent frame per seconds and the action! This game also has a lot of time you can spend on it without getting bored, but it costs around $50.00 bucks.
