PSM3 Magazine UKThere's nothing particularly special or exciting in this game. [Jan 2007, p.81]
-
Unless you’re a hardcore fan of the book series and film, I’d take a pass on Eragon.
-
Games Master UKBest played with a friend, as it's too repetitive otherwise. Nice dragon, though. [Jan 2007, p.65]
-
Most of us were better at these kinds of games when we were young. Tweens or teens could play through this game with their thumbs cut off and a frontal lobe tied behind their back.
-
Quality took a backseat to just getting it done in time for the film’s premiere. Our loss.
-
The graphics and sound are average, and nothing really jumps out and grabs your attention. Gameplay is very linear and built around the same engine that brought you "The Two Towers."
-
Littered with occasionaly glimmers of hope, Vivendi’s attempt to create a true killer-app sadly falls flat, with most of the game feeling uninspired and largely by-the-numbers.
-
PSM MagazineThankfully, Eragon on the PS2 is an entirely different game than on its portable counterpart--a better game, to be sure, but not enormously so. [Feb. 2007, p.85]
-
All in all I’d have to say avoid. The camera is a real let down.
-
There are simply too many issues that override the tidbits of "good" sprinkled throughout.
-
Eragon isn’t an awful game. The problem is that what is there isn’t good.
-
Eragon's redundancy and simplicity just offers too few reasons to keep playing.
-
Official Playstation 2 Magazine UKA likeable adventure hidden beneath a catalogue of design errors. Still less painful than sitting through the movie. [Christmas 2006, p.72]

Apr 1, 2023All I remember about this game is that eragon sucks. map design is horrible and gameplay is not fun.
-
Dec 30, 2022The game was outdated a bit when it came out but generally it was still acceptable
