Just Perfect May 21, 2007 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
There are no words to describe this guide. It is just what you expect from Prima. I mean it is the best guide I have ever bought. Not only in detail but also in appearance. Don't think about bying it. Just do it.
Contents are OK, pictures too small May 4, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
For a walkthrough of the game it does a decent job, you will get to know what's under every patch of grass, piece of rock etc...However I have some complaints: 1.The pictures are overall too small to see clearly, might as well leave out some pictures to make others larger. 2.Sometimes the guide tells you a more cumbersome way to solve certain puzzles or bosses--following the guide will get you through, but you will spend more time and lose more hearts. 3.The book itself is printed in excellent quality, but the cloth map is an absolute joke with loose strings coming off the edges and made of the thinnest roughest cheapest material ever. Very disappointing.
If you are looking for a well-organized guide just for getting through tough parts of the game, Nintendo Power's version is sufficient. If you don't care about picture size and would like a hardcover quality print, get this one. But don't have high expectations for the quality of the cloth map.
Too much info. April 15, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Guide was great at laying out the optimal path through the game. That said there's a bunch of useless information in here. I really don't need to know about every patch of grass that comes my way that may house a heart refill. The world map that's included was very handy. The guide would describe something and I would go where I thought they were explaining and be way off. Then I remembered the world map and it was really helpful. I got the most out of the game with the guides help despite the shortcomings. I just got use to skipping all the useless stuff.
One of the worst guides I've ever seen. April 10, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
First off, let me point out that I am a HUGE Legend of Zelda fan. As soon as I saw this "collector's edition" guide, I preordered it. The guide looks great, the cover is beautiful, and the artwork and design is fantastic. Once you get past all that, however, and begin to look through it, you realize its many faults. The guide has no index, and all the locations of different items are scattered seemingly randomly throughout the entire book. Want to find one specific heart piece? Well, have fun checking through all 400 pages until you find the one you want. How about that one poe soul you can't find? Same deal. It's nigh impossible to find any specific thing in this book.
Then, you get to the walkthrough itself. So lets suppose you get into a dungeon, and want to know where to start. So you look at the guide, and it tells you to go into the north door. So you go through the north door, and look at the guide again. It says "You'll need to go here later, but for now, just go back the way you came." It will take you all over the place, half the time just making you look around, or exit through the same door you came in by. This is INCREDIBLY annoying when you want to actually BEAT the dungeon.
I have never been disappointed with a prima guide before, but there's always a first time. If you want a guide that looks pretty, but lacks organization and content, go for this one. If you want a guide that will actually help you get through the game, try the nintendo power one. I'm planning to take out the pages of this guide, and use the cover for something more worthwhile. Like a binder.
