Stay clear of this Prima guide!!! September 7, 2008
11 out of 15 found this review helpful
This is one of the worst Prima guide i have ever bought, from start to finish its full of mistakes omissions, print errors and so forth...
I will give you just two examples from the start of the game , but believe me this are only the "little" mistakes this guide has:
On page 60 for example there is a lame map of Venezuela which practically tells you nothing about the available contracts and factions - it only give you the vague location for each faction - as you turn the page though , you can read the following statement " due to the branching nature of the narrative - you often choose the order of the contracts you wish to undertake - (and now for the big lie) - CONSULT THE TABLE IN THE PREVIOUS CHAPTER(along with the map) to see when contracts become available..." but when you try to find this lost table you come to realize that THERE IS NO SUCH TABLE , they just forgot to print it!!!
Example number two :
when you go to free General Carmona at some point during this stage you receive a TANK ( which is a big game factor in this game - as you all know) - But of-course the guide fails to mention this "little" fact!
There many other examples for the amateurish job Prima did with this guide and i was deeply disappointed because usually they do a much better job,
So for conclusion:
LEAVE THIS GUIDE ALONE!!! - You have been warned :)
Have a nice day.
