Got stuck in the game, read this wonderful guide!!! July 14, 2008
I have played all previous Metal Gear games, so I am a big fan.
This last MGS4 is of course the best game Konami has made.
The official Game guide is very useful because there are so many secrets to discover. Also it gives you a lot of advices regarding the gameplay and how to kill the bosses.
If you need to know more about Metal Gear story, this guide will gives you all the informations you want.
I must say the game cannot be purchased WITHOUT the guide !! It is essential to read this guide if you want to get in Metal Gear world.
First Impressions July 11, 2008
I just received this book from Amazon two days ago, and I've only had perhaps 30 minutes or so to look through the book.
A book like this for less than $14??? Finely printed, and chock full of help and background information on characters, tactics, weapons, etc. I'll purchase another copy to keep as a collector's item. Yes, this paperback book is that good!...and definately worth the money! If you have MGS4 for your Playstation, this is a MUST have.
It's perfect game guide!!! June 27, 2008

Great Guide and Well Worth the Money June 23, 2008

I typically do not buy video game guides. My previous experience with Brady guides for Unreal Tournament and GTA IV, left much to be desired and are collecting dust on a shelf. My iternet research indicated this guide was different because it was published by Piggyback and was drafted in-house by Konami. After reading and using the guide, I agree. The writing is interesting, the inforamtion is helpful and the illustrations are great. I would highly recommend getting this guide. FYI, unless you are a MSG fanatic, I would avoide the deluxe hardback edition, the paperback has all of the same game information which is what I was looking for. Good luck to all the Snakes out there.
The 99% complete guide, with an excellent overview of the entire MG story June 23, 2008

The short story: If you're new to MG, BUY THIS BOOK. If you want to completely* understand this game, BUY THIS BOOK. If you want to have a book that you can be glad you spent every penny for, BUY THIS BOOK. :D
MGS4 is my first experience with the entire Metal Gear 'saga.' Since MG has such a complicated storyline, my first playthrough involved a whole lot of listening to the cut scenes.
However, despite all that, I was still a bit lost.
Not only does this guide cover 99%* of the game, but it also contains a very readable synopsis of the entire story. (WARNING: Be careful if you read it before you've finished MGS4. You can get away with reading a lot, but ...) This is what really made this book worth it, to me.
Of course, the rest of the book helped a great deal as well, and is what I'll be consulting during my future runs through the game (one of which started the day after I completed MGS4).
*: This guide doesn't cover the passwords that Konami hasn't released yet. Oh well.
