a real help 5 out of 5 stars.

This book is great it gives the low down on all badies and stats about each character. It even tells you how you should use each character in battle.

Best Sonic Guidebook EVER! 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

I recommend this guide book even if you're a person who doesn't use it. It has good pictures, a list of all the Chao and some of them which you can only get in certain conditions, character stats, and how to beat certain bosses It also recommends which team you should use and why. For example, your first battle with Imperator Ix, it says what unless you use certain characters, it will be a difficult match. For example, the guidebook says that the easiest way to defeat Ix is to use a team of Sonic, Tails, Dr. Eggman and Omega. Sonic can be used to both heal the party and dish out a fair amount of damage to the boss. Since he always attacks first, he is crucial. Eggman can be used to attack all three enemies with Bombardment because he can kill Ix's men in two hits if his attack is level 3. Omega can be used to attack Ix directly because all of his attacks do mega damage to one opponent and Ix is the big threat. Tails is used to heal both HP and PP to two party members per turn and then use other moves to increase the defense or increase the number of turns one can attack after that. The boss will probably be dead though if you can input all the commands on the touch screen.

Sure the guidebook forgets to add certain things on the map which is very detailed and accurate if you want to get every ring and Chao Eggs in the game. Getting rings in the game is important because not only do you need them to buy items from the stores, but you need them in order to continue your game. If you have no rings when your party dies, you probably have to start all over from chapter 1. This might be false though as I have not gotten a game over yet. Who would want to get a game over anyway? As for Chao Eggs, they are important to the game too because they give the character a special ability when bonded with the Chao itself. While it may be annoying to get a common chao, you might get lucky and get a unique or rare chao. If you decided to help Cream in chapter 3, you automatically get her Chao Cheese which is one of the best Chaos in the game, increases the chance of an ambush and a critical enemy.

This is the reason why I recommend the guidebook. With it, you can get so much detailed information. You even get notes on what the creators of the game think and their strategies that provide helpful hints. You won't even need an FAQ online if you have this guide book. So if you're stuck, get this prima guide before it disappears because that happened with Sonic Adventure 2 Battle strategy guide!

Penny Arcade Delivers a Fifth Time 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

If you are looking at this book most likely you are all ready a fan of Penny Arcade. If you are a fan and wondering why you would buy a book containing strips freely available in the Penny Arcade archives, I will tell you that Tycho has, as with the first four volumes, gone back and written new commentary for all the strips in the book. As Penny Arcade fans know, a great part of the Penny Arcade experience is enjoying the strips again through Tycho's commentary on the thought process behind the strip and/or the events that led to it. There is a section in the back which includes sketches made on various convention table tops from across the years which is fun bonus material as well.

Great to have if you're new to the world of Viva Pinata. Attract any animal. There are extra cards in the book for your camera. With the first Viva I didn't ever buy a guide and just looked up on the internet how to do different things. I prefer having this book because the game is brand new and nobody has a website up yet.

Editorial Review:

The Star Wars saga continues! The Force Unleashed: Art of the Game chronicles the four-year development of the anxiously awaited, action-packed video game (releasing April 2008) developed by LucasArts from conception to completion. The book reveals innovative game design concept and images, three-dimensional renders, and behind-the-scenes photos. The Force Unleashed game casts players as Darth Vader's "Secret Apprentice" and promises to unveil new revelations about the Star Wars galaxy. The expansive story, created under direction from George Lucas, is set during the unexplored era between Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith and Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. The game re-imagines the scope and scale of the Force by taking full advantage of new technologies that will be seen and experienced for the first time, such as Digital Molecular Matter (DMM) by Pixelux Entertainment and euphoria by NaturalMotion Ltd., paired with the powerful Havok Physics (TM) system. These new technologies create gameplay only possible on the new generation of consiles. DMM incorporates the physical properties of objects in the environment so that every element reacts exactly as it should--wood breaks like wood, glass shatters like glass, Felucian plants bend in their unique way, and more. Meanwhile, as a revolutionary behavioral-simulation engine, euphoria enables interactive characters to move, act, and even think like actual human beings, adapting their behavior and resulting in a different response every single time. Well before its release, The Force Unleashed game is already buzzing on blogs and gamer websites, at gamer conferences, and among Star Wars fans. LucasArts is fully backing the promotion of the game to the tens of millions of Star Wars fans around the world.
