The guide is fairly good, giving info of characters, weapons, and many other things that are helpful when lost. You don't need to get this for the game, but I found it helpful for mine.

The poor quality of this guide does not exist within the spoilers the guide provides, but rather the content of the guide that is essentially not in-depth. The guide is full of lots of screenshots but they don't really depict anything, just what's going on in the story. The walkthrough doesn't help much. It's more of walkthrough designed for the one who wants to go through the game quickly without getting the secrets and such (which the guide doesn't exactly touch base with either). The walkthrough isn't too confusing but the information provided is just for those who only care about completeing the game. If you're one who actually needs help with the game then the guide can be a life-saver. But if you're looking to find all the secrets and such then look to GameFAQs or somewhere else on the net.

For those gamers who have become used to spoiler-free guides, avoid this one, because it makes playing the game redundant. The guide duplicates much of the dialogue (for what possible reason, I don't know) and is strangely organized.

Lots of pictures (to fill space) and doesn't deliver on "strategy" anyway. The game is enjoyable, linear, and not too difficult. The guide is essentially useless.
