First, I would like to say that Shadow Man is one of the best video games I have ever played. It has a higher maturity level, beautiful hi-res graphics, and tons of levels and objectives. I would definitely buy this game if I were you. As for the guide, it is very helpful. This is not the kind of guide that tells you exactly what to do every second, but rather a guide that will help you if you're lost, and give you a general direction if you don't know what to do next (you have to find many items on your own).

The only thing more tedious than playing this infuriatingly redundant game must be describing how to circumnavigate the maddeningly homogenous and sprawling levels...Seriously this game makes tooth extraction look like an attractive alternative. It's reminiscent of MacDonald's Kurdy; an eternity spent breaking granite with straw. In fairness to the programmers', Shadow Man is absolutely beautiful, the interface is simple and relatively clean. The immensity of the environment makes the game incredibly boring: Lara is more graceful and athletic. Gordon is much faster, and not as prone to endless meandering in go no where levels...

the game was cool.The only problem I saw was that you had to shoot each enemy so many times.I think it's a great game to buy and rent.

This book was an excellent way to get everything out of the game, but why would anyone want to do that? Everything is so bland in the game, and the color scheme is mundane. It gets very tedious very quickly, I am impressed anyone could have bothered with it long enough to write such a wonderful strategy guide for it. But it is a wonderful guide.
