Differences Between Versions
There are three distinct versions of the game. The GBA version is a role-playing video game, which more closely resembles the GBC versions of the previous two games rather than the PC versions of the previous two. The PS2/Gamecube/Xbox is the typical action/adventure platformer game. The PC version is also an action/adventure platformer but a different game entirely than the console version.
The GBA version follows the storyline the closest, and the PC version was farthest from the original plot. The console version is made up mostly of quests, whereas the PC version is made up more of lessons and exams.
The PlayStation 2 version features mini games compatible with the EyeToy.
The Gamecube version of the game features the possibility to connect with the GBA version. If the player has a GBA Connection Cable and the Player Connects a GBA with HP PoA GBA version in it, it gives you the possibility to play the minigames from the GBA version on your TV screen. Besides that you can also send an Owl Caring package to the GBA game, so you can play an extra mini game on the GBA where you have to take care for an Owl.

Famous quotes containing the words differences and/or versions:
“I may be able to spot arrowheads on the desert but a refrigerator is a jungle in which I am easily lost. My wife, however, will unerringly point out that the cheese or the leftover roast is hiding right in front of my eyes. Hundreds of such experiences convince me that men and women often inhabit quite different visual worlds. These are differences which cannot be attributed to variations in visual acuity. Man and women simply have learned to use their eyes in very different ways.”
—Edward T. Hall (b. 1914)
“The assumption must be that those who can see value only in tradition, or versions of it, deny man’s ability to adapt to changing circumstances.”
—Stephen Bayley (b. 1951)
