Game Vortex writes: "The recent history of licensed games has given us an optimistic outlook. In the past, the relatively low quality of games associated with movies or television shows suggested that they were thought of as just another disposable product to sell to kids, right up there with Taco Bell cups, temporary tattoos, and cheap digital watches. The latest crop of licensed games have included a few bright spots, games we'd be into playing regardless of whether they were associated with any license."
"For this Movie Magic Monday, we are taking a look at how many hours have been reported trying to train dragons!
How to Train Your Dragon was released for the Wii on March 23, 2010, just a few days before the movie it was based on. Surprisingly (to me anyway), this movie tie-in game was developed by Etranges Libellules, the same studio that developed the last Movie Magic Monday game we looked at, but it was published by Activision. The game received an ESRB rating of "EVERYONE 10+" with "Fantasy Violence" listed as content for parents and gamers to be aware of.
About how many U.S. Wii owners have gameplay data reported and how many hours have been reported playing How to Train Your Dragon, since it released just over 3 years ago? Brew yourself some coffee, and let's take a look!", writes CoffeeWithGames.

Loot Ninja writes: "I haven’t seen the movie but I volunteered to play this game and give it a review. I didn’t have a very good attitude going in, in truth I kind of dreaded it. With that said, the game pretty much met my expectations but I did have a bit of fun. It wasn’t great but I could see how it would appeal to the right people. It just was not my cup of tea."
