Final Fantasy VII, VIII, and IX strategy guide box set available for pre-order

[escobert]

I had VII (still have it but it's about dead) VIII, and IX. Lost VIII somewhere years ago. And my last roommate stole my copy of IX.

The VII guide was like some kind of holy text in its day. I remember borrowing it years later to replay the game and I was still impressed with what a quality guide it was. I really want to get these for collector's purposes.

The one book I really kick myself for not getting was this hard-cover artbook for Final Fantasy XII. I was kinda meh on the game when it first released but I remember flipping through that thing and it was just gorgeous page after gorgeous page. A cursory internet search couldn't find it for me just now...

I have learnt that with strategy guides I will look at them once, and think "Ooh! Prettiful layoutness", then place it on the shelf to collect dust for 10 years.
