Good, but not the best. - In terms of a strategy guide for Final Fantasy VIII, it s unbeatable.But in terms of a Piggyback brand guide, it s not the best.Quite a lot less pages compared to guides for games such as FFX and FFX-2Perhaps due to fewer content but meh...It could be a little more reader friendly also, finding the information you need can be rather annoying at times, for these reasons I give it 3 stars. For being the best guide you can currently get for FFVIII I give it another star.4/5*Good product really, worth buying.
An excellent book to accompany the game - This book is fantastic its full colour pages are packed with information, screenshots and maps. I’d been playing the game for absolutely ages and just couldn’t figure out what to do in Ultimecia’s castle so I eventually resorted to buying this guide and I’m glad I did. Everything is clearly described and it’s not just a walkthrough there are lists of monsters, cards, weapons and even details on characters and guardian forces. The only problem with it is that once I finished my game I wanted to start again and work my way through all the secrets described in the book A very worthy purchase to accompany the game.
Final Fantasy VIII Official Strategy Guide - This is a very good book, containing a lot of secrets. The only thing I don t like is all the secrets and cards are at the back of the book, although they are referenced in the text, you have to flick back and forth. Also some people might miss the references and miss out on the secret, but if the article was written on the same page it would be easier to find. Overall, a very worthwhile purchase!
ACE!!! - This is the best book I have ever read in my life!!! If you play/played FF8, you will be gripped from start to finish! Everything you need to know is in it! GF s, item lists, detailed maps, a massive walkthrough, and loads more! It is sooooooooooo worth the money! Buy it!!
Highly recommended - This is a very detailed strategy guide, including everything I expected from it and more. I especially like the characters section where you can see some stunning original artworks of the characters.The guide is packed full of maps which I found extremely useful on several occasions. The secrets section is also very imformative.Also, another good point about this book is that it doesn t give much away. By that, I mean that sequences such as the ending are left for the player to witness, instead of accidentally reading about it in the guide, thus ruining the game (at least it would for me).I would highly recommend this item.
