Battlefield: Bad Company 2 - Prima Essential Guide

The guide is nice and compact with excellent descriptions of the weapons and the different kits you can unlock and what you can do with them. It offers advice on types of load outs and has a pretty good walk through for the campaign, but the only gripe i have about it, is that the images and maps are small and hard to see especially for multiplayer map lay outs and campaign maps for the hidden weapons. I'd recommend only if you're in serious need of a guide otherwise wait until its cheaper though 10.xx is pretty good. They should have made it like the regular guide. I'd guess the writer did not have too much to say about the game to make the guide into a regular format. If the maps had been full size and detailed i would recommend it to anyone (as it would be useful for multiplayer use).
Bottom line- get it if you really want a guide to accompany the game. don't buy it if you're looking for detailed maps.

Small compact size, by far the smallest strategy guide I've came across, though this is not a bad thing. Deeply describes all weapons pro's and con's which is the main reason I purchased it. Gives you collectable weapon locations and campaign mission tips. But if your looking for more, you might want to rethink. Cool if you like the game and just want to have it though..

Nice booklet, easy to turn the pages and sit in your lap. Great for finding the com stations throughout the singleplayer campaign.
