4.0 out of 5 stars Has everything you need.
While this isn't the best guide I've ever seen, it's only real problems are subjective ones as regards layout and such. The guide itself is full of information, makes it easy to not completely spoil everything for yourself it all you're looking for is a quick hint (has sections on how to find the Colossi, sections on how to scale them, and sections on exactly how to beat...

1.0 out of 5 stars unhappy!
Unhappy with this game. Some may like the fact that it is all big bosses but for me it was too repetitive, you kill a boss then end up back at the starting point to then journey to another boss to kill him and return to the starting point . . . you get the jist. Nothing to fight on the way just land to travel on and that takes a lot of time so you end up spending loads...

This review is from: Shadow of the Colossus Official Strategy Guide (Paperback)
While this isn't the best guide I've ever seen, it's only real problems are subjective ones as regards layout and such. The guide itself is full of information, makes it easy to not completely spoil everything for yourself it all you're looking for is a quick hint (has sections on how to find the Colossi, sections on how to scale them, and sections on exactly how to beat them if you still can't figure it out). Has some very nice high-res artwork from the game as well and is very slickly presented. Features a few hidden elements of the game as well. Overall, an excellent guide worth owning if you enjoy using or collecting them.

5.0 out of 5 stars The book is extremely useful, April 13, 2009
This review is from: Shadow of the Colossus Official Strategy Guide (Paperback)
There are a ton of hidden secrets in the game, and it's nice to have them all in illustrative detail right at your fingertips. The poster is a nice addition too, and it has everything you could expect from a great strategy guide.

4.0 out of 5 stars Colossal, July 31, 2008

This review is from: Shadow of the Colossus Official Strategy Guide (Paperback)
I really liked this game despite the rough handling and amazingly challenging gameplay, but a game is supposed to be a challenge. I hate games that are too easy. It makes gaming basically pointless.

This guide was a good source of information and it helps you find a couple of easter eggs here and there.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good but needs some fine tuning!!, November 29, 2007
This review is from: Shadow of the Colossus Official Strategy Guide (Paperback)
The game is good but it needs some work. Sometimes your guy doesn't want to do what you want him to do. like grab or let go... They need to use other buttons and quit only using the same button for several actions..
