Who would pay $30 for a strategy guide when you can go on gamefaqs.com and get the same thing for free? I don't like strategy guides, sure they may have pretty pictures and nice maps, but gamefaqs is ABOUT as good, usually with these people with no lives who like to write walkthroughs all day long and do nothing else. Just wasting away....

I like being able to reference a well-placed together book as opposed to wading through a text file.

Hope the guides in the UK will be the same. I'm going to try and get my mitts on a Balthier one ^^

I actually have to have a guide as I cant have my PC and PS2 on at the same time, not enough plug sockets. Plus I'd rather be able to flick to a page, then scrowl or try and find what Im looking for.

I find using a strategy guide takes away from the challenge of the game. Sure there are going to be points where I NEED to look something up, but thats what gamefaqs is for. I also use gamefaqs to reference my progress as far as levels/equipment etc., but thats usually later on in the game.

Wanted Basch, and I got Basch! WOO-HOO BABY!~! The game rocks so far! The license board is gonna rock Mike Tyson's socks off!

I got the viera. I wanted the dude with the sword.

**Strider** · 10-31-2006, 08:27 PM

Whee, I got Penelo!

I know that the strategy guide is better, many people buy them, but I like to be a little more conservative with my money.

Anyway, I'll see once I purchase it.
