  1. An excellent treat for fans of the books and soon to be fans of the film. The game covers a lot of territory while doing a great job of bringing a decent amount of challenge and thrills to the masses.
  2. Unless you're a hardcore fan of the book series and film, I'd take a pass on Eragon.
  3. For a mediocre movie to game translation, $40 is just too much coin to drop for a game that can be played from end to end in a single weekend of casual gaming.

    Eragon isn't worth the brief amount of time it takes to play through it. The gameplay and presentation aren't up to snuff and the storytelling cutscenes don't do their job at all.

    I rated it a ten because it was good game. It was good because you could go to neat places and fight cool enemies and it follows the movie really good! Expand
