Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Metal Gear Solid, the PlayStation sequel to a video game classic, is one of the year's best and most anticipated releases. The game's spectacular cinematic style and exceptional gameplay combine to provide players with a truly memorable gaming experience. Though Prima's guide to the game lacks an "official" endorsement, it is certainly not lacking in any other department. Beginning with a rundown of the game's basic controls, the book covers every one of the items and weapons at your disposal. You'll also learn a little about each of the other characters--good and bad--in the game. The mission walkthroughs are excellent and easy to follow, with lots of screen shots to illustrate key areas and actions. Objectives are clearly called out so that you always know what your goal is, and various gameplay tips are sprinkled liberally throughout the book. At the end of the book, you'll get a glimpse of the game's multiple endings (should you so desire). --Michael Ryan

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best Metal Gear Solid Strategy Guids Ever!!, August 11, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Metal Gear Solid (Prima's Unauthorized Game Secrets) (Paperback)
I love Prima Strategy guides because they don't wast there time making up jokes like Versus books do and they tell the last boss and how to beat him. The only wrong thing it is from the Japan version of the game. But the Walkthrough is right..

5.0 out of 5 stars It explains how much i like the book, September 12, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Metal Gear Solid (Prima's Unauthorized Game Secrets) (Paperback)
Hey kiddies if you want to kick some butt in MGS this is the book to choose.it gives you outlines of the missions,where the enemys are,and most importantantly,where the guns are.

(p.s in the first level go in the water,swim to where the pipe is by the wall put your back against the wall and press the attack button one of the enemys will come by the wall but dont be worried he can't shoot you just keep pressing attack and you can annoy the heck out of the enemy.)
