TwiNCannoN Posted August 2, 2004 ...more or less sucks. I don't recommend buying it unless you're a collector, or, like me, are just trying to pass the time in any way possible. As usual it's information is shakey and poorly laid out, and focuses on entirely the wrong things. 0 Share this post Link to post
AirRaid Posted August 2, 2004 Make sure your crosshair is over a monster when you pull the trigger. Best tip I can give. 0 Share this post Link to post
Trilinear Posted August 2, 2004 Yeah those strategy guides are usually a waste of time and money. Unless you get cool game trivia and concept art included in it (like the old Wolfenstein strategy guide - man that was awesome). 0 Share this post Link to post
TwiNCannoN Posted August 2, 2004 Yeah, I know 99% of today's guides are worthless, but I just wanted to let you guys know that unless you just want the pretty book with doom3 logo then don't even bother. edit: doesn't even come with a poster :\ 0 Share this post Link to post
Amaster Posted August 2, 2004 Yeah, I only bought it as a collectors item. It's the first time I've ever bought a guide since they strike me as being worthless. 0 Share this post Link to post
Combustable Posted August 2, 2004 Unless it's for an RPG, dont buy it. Strategy guides, as i see it, are only good for RPGs, so they can point out all those unnaturally impossible secrets to find, like "Talk to villager A, in random town B, 12 times, then kill the boss that's approximately 30 times more powerful than the final boss in the game, then kick villager A in the face, and you get yourself an ultimate weapon that is now rendered useless!" For shooters, all they say is "The best way to kill a revenant is to shoot it enough times, until it stops moving." I mean, for Max Payne 2, they actually said "If you use bullet time, it makes sniping easier" whaaat? slowing the game down makes it easier to shoot people? WHO KNEW 0 Share this post Link to post
