** The game [[TakeAThirdOption takes a third option]] with regards to Marietta vs. Cho being the traitor to the D.A. In the book, the D.A. was betrayed by Cho's friend Marietta, but the film pulled a CompositeCharacter and had Cho herself do it, albeit under the influence of Veritaserum. In the game, Marietta is mentioned as Cho's friend, so she still exists like in the book, but it still follows the film with a Veritaserum-influenced Cho doing the betraying.

** In the book, there's a D.A. member named Zacharias Smith who is notable for his negative attitude about Harry. Nick Shirm plays a similar character in the film, but he's never named onscreen, and the credits only call him, "somewhat doubtful boy." For the video game, Shirm voices the same character, and in the game, he's explicitly identified as Zacharias Smith.

Reversing course from [[VideoGame/HarryPotterAndTheGobletOfFire the previous game]], the WideOpenSandbox approach is back and in a big way. The centerpiece of this game is an elaborate recreation of Hogwarts in which you can pretty much go anywhere at any time with nary a loading screen in your way. As such, the gameplay is heavy on running around the castle and performing tasks for various characters, particularly students whom you want to recruit into Dumbledore's Army. However, any part of the original story that took place outside of Hogwarts is skimmed over quickly, including the whole sequence in the Department of Mysteries, which you'd think would have had a lot of gameplay potential.
