5.0 out of 5 stars
excellent, as good as it gets, December 23, 2000
By A Customer
I haven't seen the "Perfect Guide" by Versus, but I REALLY doubt it could be better than this one. I can't think of 1 thing this guide doesn't have except a list of Enemy Skills, which enemy you get them from, and what they do. However, they do list them in the Enemy List in the back. Other than that, this guide has everything, including all the Ultimate Weapons and Limit Breaks, every kind of Materia and useful combinations, a list of all the enemies, weapons, armors, and accessories, complete strategies to beating enemies, bosses, and mini-games, and anything else I might have missed...oh, yeah, and don't forget how to raise Chocobos and how to get the 4 special kinds. It really couldn't get better than this, and as far as the Enemy Skills go, if you don't like to keep looking in the back of the book, just go online and print a nice list out from a site. Even those skilled and experienced in the "Final Fantasy" series NEED to get a guide, preferably this one or the one by Versus (they make excellent guides, especially for the "Zelda" series), otherwise they'll miss all the secrets and things you would not be able to figure out by yourself. Trust me, GET THIS GUIDE and you'll be able to fully experience the fun of "Final Fantasy VII."

THE definitive guide on Final Fantasy VII., August 8, 1999
By A Customer
One of the most anticipated RPGs ever, Final Fantasy VII is a classic game. A classic game deserves a classic strategy guide, and Brady Games' FF7 guide is nearly unbeatable. Whatever you're looking for or need help on, this book has it.This version of the guide is especially for the PC version of FF7, but I have the PlayStation version and it works just fine with that too. The tips and tactics are solid, the screenshots crisp and clear, and the information on Materia and Chocobos contained in this book is invaluable for gamers ready to master Final Fantasy VII. One complaint that gamers may have with the guide is that in some areas of the game, there isn't really much detail or tips to get you through. Overall, this may be a good thing, because it doesn't give away too much of the story, but for certain areas the guide may just say something along the lines of, "Find the exit, making sure to pick up the items along the way". However, this is the only real situation where this happens. A consise, thick, and well-worth-your-money book, Brady Games' official Final Fantasy VII strategy guide (boy, that's a mouthful) is a must-have for fans of the game, and gamers who want to get the most bang for their buck. --Darryl Da Silva

4.0 out of 5 stars
helpful, June 26, 2000
this guide is helpful for finding all the extra hidden materia, weapons , & side missions.But it did lack something, for example it does NOT have all the enemy skills ( it's missing 3), whats up with the tissues, 1/35 Shinra attack soldiers, autographs, Dio's Diary etc.The bestiary could also use some work, for example the Master Tonberry CAN be morphed into a ribbon, Cactaur CAN be morhed into a tetra element, all the creatures on the Crashed Gelinka CAN be morphed into a source.Also in the bestiary the Gi Spector is shown twice.I know it may sound like there is alot wrong with the guide but there really isn't , it's a huge helpful guide & it assists you alot in this huge colorful & beautiful game.In other words if you are looking for a guide for this game this is it.
