Wing Commander: Prophecy : The Official Strategy Guide (Secrets of the Games Series,)

Rating:
Summary: Wing Commander in full detail, but without colour.
Review: A well structured, full detailed guide that serves not only as a "what to do" book, but also as an improver of your stats on replaying the missions. Think of it as the mission notes every pilot has strapped up his right foot in the cockpit. And as it has the ORIGIN approval on it, it is well thought to be a masterpiece (my experience in all ORIGIN approved guides for the Wing Commander ga- mes, tells me so). Then you will say why the four stars (with five stars top rating) ? Its black and white layout compared to WING 4 colour enhanc- ed guide, seems like a step back (viz WING3 guide) When everything else is in full detail, from the backstory, your ships, allien ships, original Mead's skteches, mission profiles, full games paths, aso, the user would at least expect some full colour screenshots and ship photos, not to forget the lavish plot frames of WING 4 guide. Finally, a must have of all Wing Commander fans and also a comprehensive sidekick for all space simulation fans. And it saves your eyes from Dalt- onism (dicease where you see the red colour as green - have you seen "Colour of the night" with Willis ?).
