5.0 out of 5 stars A must have for those who plan on leaving the Vault..., October 28, 2008
By 
This review is from: Fallout 3 Collector's Edition: Prima Official Game Guide (Hardcover)
In short, this guide is remarkable in every aspect. David Hodgson and the folks at Prima have constructed an incredibly detailed (500 pages!) guide that is not only useful, but dare I say invaluable.

The first thing I noticed about it was that this Collector's Edition is hardcover - a superb idea for a guide that is bound to get tons of use. For those of us who have used a guide so much that its pages fall out, having a hardbound copy is truly appreciated.

The content itself is what truly makes this guide special. You can tell that the folks at Prima painstakingly played the game to construct this book. Briefly, there are 7 chapters (the last of which are appendices) spanning 500 pages. Each chapter abounds with *useful* information and maps, instructing you on how to best take advantage of the game's open-ended structure. Primary and derived statistics are covered in extreme detail, followed by a description of weapons and the many beasts they can be...Read more

This review is from: Fallout 3 Collector's Edition: Prima Official Game Guide (Hardcover)
The Good:


Holy Details: Nearly 500 pages of game's every nook and cranny is described here: Traits, skills, perks, weapons, levels, enemies, secrets and much much more!

Great Package: A handsome text-book style hardcover that is very eye-catching to even just have it on your bookshelf when not in use. Includes a giant poster, which is a map of the game.

Organized: Greatly organized and ever has an index up-front, so that you can find the information you want quickly.

The Bad:


Spoilers: While there are some spoiler warnings, its tough not to look away and spoil yourself.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Bottom Line:

A great guide for a rookie and veteran vault-dwellers alike. An absolutely amazing in-depth coverage of anything you...Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Comprehensive, November 2, 2008
This review is from: Fallout 3 Collector's Edition: Prima Official Game Guide (Hardcover)
Sometimes strategy guides are disappointing, but this is not one of them. First off it's almost 500 pages, comes with a huge detailed map of the whole wasteland, and for the game's multiple-ways-to-quest system, has maps of all your options and what rewards they give you.

As far the collector's edition version of the book, the back of the guide has tons of cool concept art, Bethesda staff notes, and easter eggs you can find in the game. Plus it's a nice hardcover.
