  1. Skilled players can probably blow through Story mode in a day or so, but the multiplayer modes make up for the brevity of that part of the game.
  2. Fans of the book (or movie) will certainly enjoy this fresh perspective of playing as Saphira with support from Eragon, especially since the other game variations do just the opposite.
  3. For a game apparently seeking a younger audience, it can be far too difficult at times, and most children will probably even realize just how shallow the game's single-player experience is after 30 minutes.
