Amazon.com Review

An epic book for another epic role-playing game from Squaresoft, this exhaustive guide provides everything you need to know about SaGa Frontier. And the book doesn't waste time with introductions and other pleasantries--it jumps right into the thick of things. You'll find complete game walk-throughs for each of SaGa Frontier's seven characters and colorful maps--each comprising 10 or so screen shots that illustrate each of the game's beautifully detailed locations. In addition, each boss and sub-boss confrontation is described in detail, as are the many side quests. A complete bestiary, with statistics on each creature in the game, is also included, along with statistics for every weapon, accessory, and other items available in the game. Attack and magical data is similarly outlined. Simply put, there isn't an aspect to this ambitious game that the guide does not cover. --Michael Ryan

More About the Author

I'm nothing more than a guy that loves video games.

I managed a software store in Indianapolis when I encountered Brady's publisher. The company hired me to assist in developing their new line of video game strategy guides, which was a very limited assortment at the time. They had published on a few Electronic Arts sports titles for the Sega Genesis, Mortal Kombat, and Sonic the Hedgehog.

It was a very interesting time for our business. Strategy guides were transitioning from tiny booklets into full-size, full-color, magazine-like books. We had the opportunity to make a huge impact and try something very new and unique. I'm very thankful for the experience. It was simply an amazing opportunity.

"Virtua Racing" for the Sega Genesis was my first project as an author. It took a week to write and some of that time was spent sleeping on an office floor. It was not a book I wanted to write. Our publisher made it clear I didn't have a choice. As painful as that first project was, it shot my career down a completely unexpected path. It led to projects like Turok: Dinosaur Hunter and eventually, my favorite, Final Fantasy VII.

Final Fantasy had always been a favorite series since it released for the NES. VII proved to be a monstrous task. We had no idea what we were getting into at the time. Final Fantasy projects now require a team of authors, but I'm proud of what we accomplished given the resources available. It was a learning experience for everyone involved.

I continued to write for several years with Conan being my final project. It has been a wonderful ride and I met some amazing people along the way. The people at BradyGames really care about the products they produce. That is not something you find with every publisher.

I tried numerous times to finish the game without buying a guide and it was next to impossible (for me) and once the guide arrived I understood what the game wanted from me without telling me what to do word for word. I highly recommend it.

You will be lost in this game from Squaresoft without this guide! Detailed walkthroughs for all of the characters, character storylines, explanations of the side-quests,tables explaining the enemies and items, and much more in this very comprehensive guide. Definitely worth your money if you have the game.

3.0 out of 5 stars so-so, July 20, 1999

This review is from: Official Saga Frontier Strategy Guide (Paperback)

this stratagy guide had a lot of stratagy, but all the lists were incorect, it seemed like David cassady (writer) had played the game but he should go back and check how many hit points the bosses have. I recomend it but don't depend on the stats.
