Book Reviews of Halo: Prima's Official Strategy Guide
Book Review: Great game, but really no need for a strategy guide...
Summary: 2 Stars
Halo is a *great* game, with stunning graphics, immersive gameplay, and a great storyline to back it all up. Although the game is not completely "scripted", the objectives are clear enough that there should be no need for a strategy guide for the average joe gamer.As said before, this guide serves not much more of a purpose other than a more complete manual. If you need help/are stumped with the game, there are many resources online, be sure to consider it's value.
Book Review: depends
Summary: 2 Stars
If you are just going to play single player there is no reason for this book. However, if you are playing multiplayer this book is halpful for the maps, but you can probably find those online.Book Review: A simplified walkthrough, no strategy
Summary: 1 Stars
This guide may be helpful for someone playing on Easy, but on Legendary you have to have a strategy. A strategy, is not included in this guide. An excerpt from the guide: "Two more troop carriers show up
almost simultaneously, in spots that
have already hosted alien infestations.
You know what to do." For those who know the game, troop carriers are equipped with 2-3 Elites, 2-4 Jackals, and 6-7 Grunts, one troop carrier is difficult to get past, but two is almost impossible. 'You know what to do' is their suggestion on how to get past this difficult part(on Legendary). I would not recommend this guide at all. The only thing helpful is at the very beginning, where it lists some effective weapons, and it has maps of the levels, other then that, there is no guide.
Book Review: strategy guides are for losers
Summary: 1 Stars
Strategy guides are horrible. They ruin the entire game and lower the replay value a lot. ESPECIALLY with HALO! IF UR REALLY STUCK, BEAT IT IN CO-OP WITH A FRIEND, THEN BEAT IT URSELF!!! I beat the game with no help on the impossible ones like Two Betrayals, so why cant you??? Plus you can just get them online free from the internet.Book Review: Hahahaha.

Are you serious about playing games? Are you sure, POSITIVELY SURE, that you want to be told, much like a small child, how to play this game?C'mon. Get skillz. Play the game without the guide and people will know you learned how to play on your own.
...Totally clueless?
Why do you own an Xbox?
