Book Review: Live and let live!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
The two negative reviewers seem to have forgotten that there is no law about using cheats or guides when gaming - each to his own. Some people will slave away at a game for weeks refusing to get help, others rush through a game in a few hours by following a walkthrough to the letter. NEITHER WAY IS WRONG. It's no-one else's business how you choose to play your games. Personally, I like to try to make it through on my own first, but if I get really stuck I'd rather have the answer to hand than spend ages getting nowhere. And despite all the advantages of the internet, some of us still take pleasure in a well-produced book.
Piggyback are a small company who have been producing guides for a number of top games (including the Silent Hill and Metal Gear Solid series) in Europe for a few years now. Their guides are always beautifully produced, vastly superior to either Prima or Brady's efforts in terms of art design, and packed with clear information - and this Halo 2 guide is no exception. I'm really pleased to see their work is now available to USA gamers as well. Take it from me; if you want help with Halo 2, this is the guide to have
Book Review: INDESPENSIBLE GUIDE FOR HALO 2
Summary: 5 Stars
Well on just the first day of it's release Halo 2 made over 100 Million dollars...a figure any Hollywood movie studio would be envious of. So now you've bought it and you say your stuck?
Enter the Halo 2 offical guide by the premiere company for game guides, Prima. EVERYTHING you could ever want to possibly know about the game is jam-packed into this 224 page book.
You'll get level maps and guides, step-by-step walkthroughs of each level, power-up locations and more. The book details all of the weapons, vehicles, and enemies with their strength and weaknesses. EVerythig you need to beat this great game.
But it doesn't stop there. Since Halo 2 is online and multi-player the guide charges into full gear. Detailing all of the multi-player maps, game types, power-up locations, secret locations, and custom game set-up.
The book features hundreds of detailed screenshots as well.

Review:
This guide was made in Bungie Studios itself. It is very complete and, if you are having trouble with Halo 2 it will help you. There are 57 pages of basics, a near perfect walkthrough,beautiful screenshots, great multiplayer guide, oh need i go on? I would definitly buy this guide if i were you. It is better than Prima or even Nintendo Power. If you have Xbox live plai
y it online. My gamertag is Bug 23.
Book Review: 38 and still playing!
Summary: 5 Stars
I got this guide for the game that I had to buy again for my son, and even thou' I've been around since the game "Pong", (ask your parents) I've seen the growth of video games to today's runners, and I have to say that I've played lots of games, I find this book to more than helpful. After playing the level, you can save your progress and go back and search out more items. I use it along with the game, my 9 year old boy laughs at me becuase I puase the game and look over the plan of action before going into battle!
