Rating: Summary: A great help, but... Review: This book is a great resource if you only consult it when you need to. However, I was very dissapointed with the Squaresoft interview included. Depending on what point in the game you've reached (or how good your memory is), certain parts of the interview can totally ruin the ending, spoiler-wise. Since the book seems so set on avoiding spoilers when possible, even ommiting the name of the last boss, it seems odd that they would allow this in another section of the guide.Additionally, there were flat out errors in the guide to the Cloister of Trials for Bevelle Temple. The whole sequence is vauge, but in at least one instance, the wrong direction is given. This is picky, but one assumes that if you have to use a strategy guide, a puzzle is already frustrating you, and there's no call for the guide to add to this frustration.
Rating: Summary: Most helpful guide I've ever used Review: I got through Final Fantasy X just fine but when I beat it, I realized I had not done much of the secret, hidden, or special stuff, mainly because I couldn't find it all! So I saw this guide in a store and bought it after I flipped through it because what I saw was the greatest information on a game ever published. The book is presented in such a way that the visuals are interesting to look at even in the walkthrough section. It tells you exactly how to get each secret item, aeon, weapon and anything and everything else you did and didn't want, which is exactly what makes this guide perfect. Because of this guide, I am still enjoying the game months after beating it. ps: With all of the aeons, I am incredibly powerful, and you can be too.
Rating: Summary: Buy it you'll probably need to! Review: Uh, small spoiler ahead, very small : All I can say is buy it, and there is really only one reason: The Closier of trials. The puzzels in them are very confusing. The first 2 aren't, but the final one is so hard I had trouble with the guide (even though it goes step-by-step.) The guide is very easy to understand so you should go and buy it if you think you'll have troubles. It's also very helpful with the legendary weapons part.
Rating: Summary: You need this guide Review: This guide is very useful it has stradagies for fighting bosses, blitzball players status, And infomation about every character, Their weapons and the aeons and how to get them. The game is pretty hard to beat without this stradagy guide. So i think you should get it.
Rating: Summary: Worth the money for most. Review: This book is worth it. Why? Two words for you: Skill Map. That's right; a full-sized (and smaller sized ones in the book) of the skill map for your characters is included as a poster, along with ALL of Rikku's attacks. Nuff said. The book is an excellent example of what a hint book should be. It's nothing you can't get if you aren't internet savy, however, the convience of having a full-color guide in your lap while playing is invaluable. And for the skill map which you can uh, mark your progress on with a post it note. So you don't study any erroneous paths accidently. Not that I would do that myself, heh. If you're heavy into the weapon-customization track as well, this is handy for assisting you in getting the blade/staff/whatever of your dreams if the Ultimate Weapons don't quite cut it for you. Downsides: some of the area diagrams are off. The items listed that you can find in a few cases are incorrect as well. Other than that, it's pretty decent.
Rating: Summary: Wonderous Review: Could be more complete, but certainly a indespensable piece of the wonderous game put together for us by Square!
Rating: Summary: Excellent Review: two words- Love it this guide, if you have any trouble with the game, is EXCELLENT. it has everything, from all of Rikku's OverDrive combinations to detailed walk-throughs. if you are stuck anywhere, this guide will help you out. Can't delete the boss? no problem. just check the guide AH
Rating: Summary: a pretty good guide for someone who is stupid about FF Review: For one thing, this game was my first introduction to the world of Final Fantasy. I found this guide to be somewhat helpful in my travels through the game, (although I am still stuck on one of the battles). Great pictures and will definately help with some of the foes. I gave it 4 stars though because it needs to be only a bit more detailed on helping fight the monster you are up against.
Rating: Summary: Great Review: you should definitly buy this if you have FFX. It makes the game a lot more fun.
Rating: Summary: Me Review Review: Ok, I owned, I played, and I loved it. First off...I'm a big RPG addict...seriously. I played many games and this was one of the best there. The Story line is not one of the best Final Fantasy story, but if it made me cry in the end...Two thumbs up!!! The graphics and music are excellent for a game. Their voice were magnifit...but one thing to add...learn how to lipsync programers. It would of been better if their voices moved with the words. The last thing I loved about it is the length (very long), battle and walking style, and last but not least...the characters, e.g. Yuna (hehe).
