Resident Evil 5: The Complete Official Guide (Prima Official Game Guides)

 (10 customer reviews)

Whenever a Piggyback Interactive guide comes around, you know exactly what to expect. A lot of depth. And not just for those wanting to get through the game... for those wanting to conquer it all. Even better is that the guide could be useful whether you're a veteran of the series or new to it all together. It's an easy guide to navigate and use.

The "How to Play" section might be worth a peak, even for Resident Evil veterans, if only to learn a bit more about cooperative play. It goes into a lot of detail on mechanics old and new. If you mastered Resident Evil 4, however, you might find this section repeats a lot of what you already know. However, if you're new, this is a good place to learn about some of the basics. It covers both the 360 and PS3 versions of the game, so it doesn't matter which version of the game you have.

The walkthrough is more than likely what you picked the guide up for in the first place. It works in a very well organized way...Read more

I got most RE guides, MGS4 and even the old FFVII guide. I go to say this is one of the most accurate guides out there.

This help me saved time and frustration with finding all the items, BSAA emblem, and treasures. All the maps and items found are exactly like the PS3 version of the game. Image of the maps and screenshot are very clear to understand. There are a lot of texts here also. All the weapons grade, level-up, bosses tip and strength are well done. Have a few pages for verse mode also. The layout on the walkthrough is like this. One page (left side) got the map a 50-75 percent of the page. A couple of 1x2 inch screen shoots. The right page is mostly texts and some artwork background and some screenshots also.

The only think I found that isn't in the book is you can knock out the light beam (laser) in the worship area in chapter 4-2 with a couple of hits from the rocket launcher.

Most guides are useful to find all the items and tips,...Read more

I was so very impressed with this guide. One of the biggest and best thing they did was not spoil the cut scene's and surprises that were ahead. The art and detail were awesome and everything you needed to know was all in this book.
