I got this book mainly to find out some strategies for games I already own, it does a great,detailed, very thorough job of that. But now I've found its great to look up reviews of other games that I see for sale to find out if they are worth purchasing. The only bad thing is the authors corny sense of humor sometimes gets in the way.

It's difficult to find good resources and references for the long-out-of-production 3DO system, which was by far the best product to come from the now-bankrupt 3DO corporation. Decent screenshots and good walkthroughs are the main feature of this book, but I especially appreciated the "buyer's guide" at the back of the book which graded all of the then-currently available games. No fan of obscure, obsolete game technology should be without this book. The first in the series is also worth a look, as it follows the same format.
