This review is from: Virtua Fighter 3 Unauthorized Arcade Secrets (Secrets of the Games Series) (Paperback)

Incredibly inaccurate and incomplete. Poorly edited. Desciptions and pictures don't match. Move commands and descriptions don't even match! If you use this guide to play the game you will be terribly confused and misinformed and proceed to get your butt kicked by anyone who has played the game for more than 15 minutes, which the author obviously didn't do. Avoid this book like the plague. You're better off dumping your $13.00 into the arcade machine, you'll learn more from that than reading this book. (Actually 0 stars but they don't have that option.)
