New Eragon screenshots

 

Eragon is a story about a boy and his dragon. I guess something like that would be pretty common in fantasy medieval societies, but nowadays it’s just “a boy and his dog.” I really think our generation got the short end of the deal. Now, if the dog in question was a 50-ft long flying engine of mass destruction I wouldn’t mind, but my parents bought a chihuahua instead.

Anyway, enough about that. Eragon the book is about to be reincarnated as a movie and videogame, and while some fans of Christopher Paolini’s Eragon novels have expressed their discontent with the videogame version, from what we’ve seen it looks like a very enjoyable game. It may not be as true to the novels as some people want but it still does feature a dragon, and we like dragons – especially if we can ride ’em and use ’em to fry us some filthy Urgals.

The multi-platform game Eragon will be released on November 14 for the Xbox 360, PS2, Xbox, Game Boy Advance, PSP, DS, mobile, and PC. Check out the screenshots below for a taste of what’s to come.
