Must have for those who aren't TopNotch Players, January 4, 2004
This review is from: The Sims Bustin' Out (Prima's Official Strategy Guide) (Paperback)
If you are anything like me and aren't an ace with Video games but adore the Sims. Then you'll want this guide. This game has a lot of different goals you must attain to gain items/clothes/actions. Sometimes those things determine your progress in the game. As in certain goals allow you to go to different places Club/Gym/Etc.
This guide tells you a lot of the information about the game itself even with information on how other Sims react to your actions. I play this game in stages and it's nice to have this guide to help me discover hidden items that you are supposed to search for or who to talk to accomplish certain things.
This book had enough information to help me learn the best way for me to play the game.
Now for the only thing I found lacking was a bit more description or hints for what is best to have or sell once you've completed skills, etc.
There are certain things that once you acquire them you'll want to have in all of the houses such as the Miss Gyrotic, the Gourmet stove and Hellagraphix (all items that have to be unlocked). Once you have these items it makes pleasing your Sims much easier.
Luckily this guide tells you were those items are and how to gain them.
For a game guide I find this one very thorough and I'm glad I have it to go with my game.
I highly recommend it if you own or are planning on buying the Sims Bustin out game. Also even if you just rent it it's worth the $12 for the book

An Excellent Guide, December 29, 2004
A Kid's Review
This review is from: The Sims Bustin' Out (Prima's Official Strategy Guide) (Paperback)
I purchased this guide day-before-yesterday at my local Wal-Mart, and I must say that I am incredibly satisfied. The guide provided a quick and easy tutorial for the game. This guide tells you how to improve your relationships with Sims, it includes a guide for the GBA version of the game as well as the GCN-PS2-XBOX version, a dizzying catalog of every object in the game, detailed descriptions of jobs and careers, and practically everything else that you need to know! A special section for GCN-GBA connectivity adds to the value. All in all, a must-buy if you are getting the game.
