Dead Rising 2: Prima's Official Game Guide | Paperback

I thought the guide was well written and clear and gave you every hint and tip you needed to complete the game with ease and complete all the tasks required.A few of the messages come out of sync but thats more to do with the game engine rather than the guide being incorrect as I played through the game 4 times and the messages came through in different orders each time.It would have been mighty hard to get all the achievements without the guide.All in all a decent,clear and concise guide.

I was quite disappointed in this guide generally. It's handy to use for reference when you just can't quite remember where to find that fireaxe or chainsaw but where this guide falls down is the walk through section. After completing two or three tasks you will notice straight away that side missions happen at totally different times in the actual game. This renders the strict pattern of completion that the guide offers completely useless. Ho well at least I can do it the old fashioned way, trial and error with a touch of exploration. Final verdict? Buy it if you love the game and want a keepsake for your collection. Otherwise just look online for weapon guides etc.
