Amazon.com Review

If you already know how to wipe out the heinous hosts of hell in id Software's Quake, but can't quite figure out where they all are, the Quake Unauthorized Map Guide is for you. This book provides no-nonsense maps to each of the game's levels, along with a brief commentary on the creatures and objects found within each level. The maps are good and easy to read, but keep in mind that maps are all you're going to get in this one.

This review is from: Quake Unauthorized Map Guide (Prima's Secrets of the Games) (Paperback)

In all seriousness, what is the use of buying this map guide when you could buy the full guide with ACTUAL strategy (and the maps)? The maps aren't that great either, but they are accurate and I give them credit for that. The book lists the secrets (again, which you can find in the full guide). The only things relatively new here are the tactical notes for every mission, but still, what is the use of this guide? Don't get the map guide. It's a waste of time and money. Get the full guide by prima which has all of the stuff thrown in this book...but more!

I've been playin quake since it came out and I have beatin it millions of times. Though I've played every level too many times, it becomes very easy to get lost in these addictively horrifying ruins. If you want to beat the game this is a must.
