Alot of the gaming web site gave this game horrible reviews. I on the other hand do not understand the harsh judgment. Eragon is not all that bad. Yes I does have glitches here and there and the camera is iffy in a few spots, but all in all it is a good hack and slash. I reminds me of the Lord of the Rings games. You travel along a set path and are involved in pre-determined events. The dragon flying scenes are also entertaining. All in all this is an entertaining game and stacks up well considering most movie titles are below sup-par.
Eragon relies entirely on tedious, unenthusiastic gameplay that's way too shallow to sustain interest for more than a few minutes. The Good: Some of the magic attacks are fun to use at first. The Bad: Combat is extremely repetitive and tedious. Poor hit detection, buggy artificial intelligence, frustrating camera angles. The game is short and has very little replay value. Local multiplayer only, no online play. Ugly character models, jerky animations, and an all-around lackluster presentation. Overall: Poor Game... Portions of this review are by Gamespot.com
My son loves this game. Swords, dragons, bows and arrows..just what boys like!
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
The gameplay is pretty good. It follows the movie more closely than the book. I think it would have been a little better if it had followed more of the book storyline making it longer and more challenging. I beat the game on normal within a week, so I am trying it over again on the difficult setting. I bought the game because both the movie and the book were really good.
price was great so i said let's give it a go. haven't played much of it yet, but it's ok. not great not horrible. i would recommend this for younger players as it isn't bloody and is easy to play. for us adults it doesn't really have the gameplay or graphics we like, and as expected the acting is pretty cheesy. if you can get it cheap go for it, otherwise i'd leave it alone. hope this helps you decide whether or not to purchase it
