Prior to getting this book, I've already started on God of War III. If you've already played bits of the game, you'll realise it's not a very complicated a game. Even without a walkthrough, clearing the game should be no problem. Having said that, the walkthrough is still there if you need it, clear and complete. If you don't want any spoilers from the walkthrough, you can just use the maps provided without reading the walkthrough. Each map has all the collectible items listed, including treasures of the gods (some gods like to throw their stuff everywhere). Interspersed with the walkthrough are interesting stories on the mythology and characters, although they left me a bit confused with the supposedly real world mythologies because of some discrepancies. The usefulness of this guide is more on the information on the weapons, collectible items, challenges and trophies. They have everything listed. Button combinations for all the...Read more 6 of 7 people found the following review helpful:  Not As Carefully Compiled As It Looks...., By This review is from: God of War III: Ultimate Edition Strategy Guide (Hardcover) THE GOOD : Great layout, VERY comprehensive info on anything you could want to know about this game and as an added bonus it provides a history lesson on each of the Gods and many of the creatures in the game, throughout the book. Quite a nice little bonus to be sure. A videogame guidebook with some brains instead of just brawn! Also, this 'Ultimate Edition' includes some nice artwork for serious fans of the series.
THE BAD: This book seems like a rush-job. The many noticeable spelling errors led me to ask if anyone ever proof-read this thing before it was published. It was that bad. Additionally, and even worse, this book has altogether omitted one of the 7 challenges of Olympus. Also along these lines, one of the 'Godly Treasures' (Hephaestus's Ring) is not called out in graphic detail like the others are. It is mentioned in the text of the walkthrough, but again, it is not called out / presented in the same fashion as all the other collectibles like this are...Read more 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful:  Solid strategy guide but not quite perfect..., By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: God of War III: Ultimate Edition Strategy Guide (Hardcover) I'll start by saying that contrary to what others have said I find the guides cover, thickness and quality to be great for the price. However, that is what the "greatness" ends.
The guide itself is probably more eye candy that it is functional. Some of the descriptions on how to beat the bosses (and do small things like open doors, getting past Gaia's "heart" etc) are not great and they can still leave you with the feeling that you are solving the puzzle on your own. It is not very detailed and often times it will have pictures that don't really give a good idea of what you need to do. Overall I would recommend this for any collector, however if you are stuck on an area and/or want a complete "God of War III for dummies book" I would look elsewhere because their are unofficial guides (online and in print) that will help you more in your quest of finding everything in a quick and timely manner! |
