Fans of Harry Potter and movie-themed video games will be happy to know that this year's Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix will use not only the motion sensors in the Wii, but in the PS3 as well.

Executive producer Harvey Elliott told GameSpot:

Instead of pressing buttons to fire off specific spells, we use each console's unique controls... If you want to use 'depulso' to push an object away from you, you press the right analogue stick forward on the 360 and PS2, you push the Sixaxis controller away from you on the PS3, and, of course, you flick your 'wand' away from you on the Wii.

Right now, I'm imagining what that scene from Forrest Gump when father and son start leaning to the side simultaneously would look like if it were two grown people and swearing. Kim Phu
