Here we go! This strat guide was better than I thought it would be its one of the biggest guides I have ever seen {beside Radiata Stories}. I also would like to say that the walkthough portion of the guide is about as detailed as you can get. It explains just about every item locale on the map like ring fragments, stellars, accessories, and where key npc's are. The item lists, weapons, and equipment are all listed in detail, also gives you in depth ways on dealing with all the boss fights. The best part of the guide is the sidequest parts I don't think I have ever seen a more detailed sidequest index in my gaming life[except for the pifight portion]. There is a few minor flaws in this guide to make it a five, but a strat guide is to help you if you get stuck not to hold your hand and powder your bottom! What I am saying is if you are a gamer {RPG} then you should play the game without the guide first and then use the guide to see what you may have missed. In ending I would like to say I do reccomend this book Prima did a great job, unlike the job bradygames did on SH2!

This review is from: Shadow Hearts: From the New World (Prima Official Game Guide) (Paperback)

This is a simple, businesslike guide that does an excellent job of giving you what you need to get every enjoyment out of the game. Prima seems tospecialize in this time of guide - printed nicely, clear maps and diagrams but without the extreme glitz of less useful guides that spend too much effort being souvenirs.

From The New World in an interesting change of pace from the first games in this series. There are a lot of interesting side details, thand Prima makes sure you know about them. These guides get hard to track down after the game has been out for a while, but if you can find one consider getting it as a good companion while you are saving the world.

Just like an Prima guide, this one is a good addition.

Prima have their feet on the ground and their hand's in the dirt, this guide is no exception, you actually get the feeling they really played this game.
