4.0 out of 5 stars The book is good,but I wouldn't get it if I wanted real stor
Ok. I have played FF7 since the beginning it hit the shelves in Harriman TN. This is a good book but it has some Materia Mistaken for something else...Example "Ifrit Ice Damage to all foes?" Everyone knows that has played this game it is Fire Damage...This book only has 2 code to this game...1 that does not even work..The Heros to Level 9999....If it works...

1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible, hope he hasn't written an FF8 guide
This is a terrible guide. There isn't enough info on how to get all the rare materia. It doesn't mention that if you master a materia, you will get another with 0 AP. It doesn't talk about the Ancient Forest or Cactus Island. It even says "Ifrit-Ice damage to all foes". Can't the author tell the difference between Ifrit and Shiva!

3.0 out of 5 stars A good walkthrough, but not much "how-to" information., November 14, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Final Fantasy VII: Ultimate Strategy Guide : Unofficial (The Final Fantasy Series) (Paperback)
I thought this was a decent book. It has a good walkthrough, which I need. But, I think I will have to buy the official guide for help with playing the game (ie., keyboard, materia, weapons use, etc.)

1.0 out of 5 stars It had a good walkthrough but it lacked many secrets., June 28, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Final Fantasy VII: Ultimate Strategy Guide : Unofficial (The Final Fantasy Series) (Paperback)
I for one have played FF7 countless times. This unnofficial guide did have a good walkthrough. It really helped me get through the game... But it lacked many important things.Unlike the Official FF7 Strategy Guide it lacked detailed boss information and weaknesses. It did not show how to defeat the Ruby and Emerald Weapons. Plus it didn't even show the easy way to get a gold chocobo. I have stated that this guide has a satisfactory walkthrough. I wouldn't recommend it. If I were a prospective buyer I would stick with the official strategy guide!

1.0 out of 5 stars isnt very good, December 3, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Final Fantasy VII: Ultimate Strategy Guide : Unofficial (The Final Fantasy Series) (Paperback)
Let me say out which sections of the game this BOOK lacks: 1)How to get to Vincent's waterfall and what to do there 2)Same here for the Frog Forest 3)how to defeat the Weapons 4)Item list 5)Yuffie's sub-quest (he missed out the fighting of the 5 families part) 6)CHOCOBO BREEDING!!!!(This is so common and a MUST for all ff7 guides..i cant believe he actually missed it!) 7)hints for defeating bosses are not detailed 8)what about the 7777fever? the Cactus island? the key to midgar in disc 3? the shortcut way to get a gold chocobo? bonus materia location? in disc 3, what if you choose to take the right route instead of the left...you'll be stuck cuz this author only tells us how to go to the stone steps using the LEFT-UPPER route In general, this author doesn't take writing this book seriously enough.

This review is from: Final Fantasy VII: Ultimate Strategy Guide : Unofficial (The Final Fantasy Series) (Paperback)
This book leaves out so many important parts it's sad. Also, the amount of errors just keep adding up. Every time I look at it I find a new typo, error, or missed information.
