Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation: Prima's Official Strategy Guide

Comment: When Your Stuck In a Game Read the cheat book! BUT not to much or you'll take the fun out of the game!

Comment: A very helpful book.
It gives all the best true information as possible.The walkthrough is nice because it tells you what you have to do in each level via every screenshot.
The best thing about this book is that it has a seperate section
at the end as a guide on how to find all 70 secrets .
But the only 'bad thing' is the part on getting the revolver. I mean it clearly says in ''Coastal ruins'' that you need a revolver to shoot something. Only problem is we cannot find it, until later in the level .

Comment: Tells you absolutely everything! And, as far as what the guy above said, the book does in fact tell you how to get the revolver WAY before it tells you to use it.

It helped me tremendously as far as giving me the ability to see what it was they where telling me to do via the pictures.

I would definitely recommend it!

Comment: As has already been noted, one of the biggest and most glaring problems with this guide is when it instructs you to equip a Revolver that you don't have. Specifically, when you reach the Coastal Ruins, the guide instructs you to "quickly equip the Revolver with LaserSight." The thing is, you don't have one because the revolver isn't available until much later in the game, when you reach the City of the Dead. (Where the guide states that you can "pick up a Revolver, if you don't have it already." Of course, you wouldn't have it already because it's not possible to get it before then.) The trick, actually, is to equip either the Crossbow to fire at the targets, follow the strategy another reviewer stated of using the grenade launcher followed by the shotgun, or load a super grenade into the grenade launcher and then one blow can take out all nine targets.

If this was the only problem, then perhaps the guide would still be worthwhile. This guide, however, also completely misses out on many cool secrets. This is absolutely insane, as the spine states "ALL SECRETS REVEALED." Yet it misses two very easy secrets at the beginning of the Valley of the Kings, making this a blatant lie!

Edit--- okay, so now I realize that the book actually does reveal all secrets- *in a separate section in the book of the book that isn't mentioned anywhere in the course of the normal text!* How, I ask, is that helpful? (Which means, of course, that they stuck in some time after they were originally finished writing the guide, just so they could claim on the cover, "All Secrets Revealed." Sorry, doesn't wash.)

Add in descriptions that often confusing (despite provided photos) and you have a guide that, while it may get you through the game, is definitely not worth of the title of "Prima's Official Strategy Guide." Don't buy this strategy guide. Instead, just locate one of the many walkthroughs available online. Not only are you more likely to get complete information because site readers can e-mail in if the guide-writer misses something, but you can also check against other walkthroughs to make sure you're not missing anything. The only problems I see with this is if you must have something to hold in your hands (you could print one, if you don't mind using up printer ink, or you have a hookup where you can print stuff for free), or if you don't have Internet access (in which case you wouldn't be reading this.)
