"Eragon also has an extremely frustrating camera. The game employs fixed camera angles, so you have no control over your perspective on the action."
--Greg Mueller, GameSpot
"Tweens or teens could play through this game with their thumbs cut off and a frontal lobe tied behind their back."
--Scott Sharkey, 1UP
"The poor presentation doesn't stop with the options or the lack of storytelling. It continues straight into the menu screens that look like they're straight out of a Super NES game."
--Erik Brudvig, IGN
"The targeting system isn't great, so exercising a dragon's God-given right to belch fireballs at entire armies is frustrating."
--Chris Antista, Games Radar
"Eragon feels rushed and slapped-together as a low-budget attempt to cash in on the holiday film release and make a quick buck from the fans before word gets out that it's not worth half its retail price."
--Bryan Stratton, GameSpy
"The game covers a lot of territory while doing a great job of bringing a decent amount of challenge and thrills to the masses."
--Greg Wilcox, Ace Gamez
"There is really only one “boss fight,� and the lack of tactical strategy in that one fight makes it the most boring ten minutes of the game."
--JP Hurh, Game Revolution
