PlayStation Blog Teases Killzone 3 Strategy Guide

February 10, 2011 By Keri Honea Leave a Comment

Killzone 3 Strategy GuideLook at this thing of beauty that Sony has teased us with on their PlayStation blog. If you’re looking forward to the Killzone 3 strategy guide, this visual should make you froth a little more. What makes it better is the fact that Sony has revealed some of the bonus features of the guide, all while touting the expertise of the guide writers, Future Press.

Future Press is covering every aspect of the game, from highly detailed overview maps of the single player campaign to minute details on obtaining each of the trophies and secrets. Killzone 3: The Official Guide is no less meticulous, with an extensive breakdowns of the single- and the multiplayer modes as well as useful tips and strategies for players of every skill level.

In addition, Killzone 3: The Official Guide contains lavish concept artworks depicting the development of the characters and environments of Killzone 3, accompanied by interviews with key Guerrilla designers describing the process involved. As a special bonus, purchasing the official guide gives you access to 3 Unlock Points that you can use to get a head start in unlocking abilities and weapons for your preferred career. The guide even recommends the right time to spend them!

Future Press has made us happy in terms of their high quality guides, and it looks like we’re getting graced with another one.  All of us over here are quite excited to get our hands on both the game and the guide.

The Collector’s Edition Comparison: Dead Space 2 Strategy Guide

February 10, 2011 By Keri Honea 5 Comments

Dead Space 2 Collector's Edition Strategy GuideOne [amazon-product text=”Dead Space 2 strategy guide” type=”text”]0307890090[/amazon-product] costs $19.99. The [amazon-product text=”Collectors Edition” type=”text”]0307891011[/amazon-product] costs $39.99. What justifies the $20 difference other than a deep love for the franchise? For die hard Dead Space fans (and I haven’t really met any other type of Dead Space fan), there is plenty.

Outside of the standard hard cover and additional artwork, there are 48 additional pages of extra Dead Space 2 content. It contains the expected art section with concept art, which is quite standard these days for CE strategy guides and some regular standard issue strategy guides. In addition, there is a chapter that details the creation of Isaac’s Live Action Suit along with interviews with its creators. An interview with Ian Milham, the Art Director for the Dead Space franchise, is also included and an art section dedicated to Christopher Shy’s artwork, who is the artist of the Dead Space graphic novels. As an added bonus, there is a letter from the Church of Unitology, which is only legible to the fans who have bothered learning their unique alphabet. [Read more…]

Two Worlds II Progress Report

February 8, 2011 By Keri Honea Leave a Comment

Two-worlds-2-boxartEven though Two Worlds II doesn’t have a strategy guide as of yet (although I keep hearing that it is in progress), I’m reviewing the game for my other fabulous gaming site, Games Are Evil. I haven’t played it very much because I have so many other distractions, like the Super Bowl and Plants v. Zombies for XBLA. Oh and I went to the Dallas Aquarium on Saturday. So last night was the first time since last Wednesday that I’ve played the game.

I was having issues with it just because of the display on my screen. The picture spilled off the sides, so I wasn’t able to see any of the game hints, mini-map, or my health bar. I assumed it was my TV, so I wrangled with my TV settings, the Xbox settings, and last night, I went as far as to switch TVs.

Now this is the only game it has happened for. I see nothing in the game settings for shrinking down the picture. It’s now 1 in the morning and I’m not thinking rationally. As I logged off, I saw one of my friends logging on with the same game. I frantically emailed him asking if he had the same issues. I then announced my frustration on Twitter, and another friend said he would help me out. [Read more…]

Weekly Poll: For which genre do you buy strategy guides the most?

February 7, 2011 By Keri Honea Leave a Comment

Epic Mickey PollAfter talking to another friend this past weekend, I may be crazy for having problems with Epic Mickey, but eh, that’s something I can live with. In other random Wii news, a friend from my Super Bowl party last night asked if I would come over and help her kids get through this one area in LEGO Harry Potter for the Wii. I got a chuckle out of it.

This week’s poll focuses on genres for guides. I now get guides for all genres, because hey, what would be the point of this site if I only bought guides from one genre? But before I purchased this domain, I primarily bought guides for JRPGs and Legend of Zelda games. For LoZ, I needed the guides just to help me figure out where to freaking go. Bosses never really flustered me, but the insane puzzles of the dungeons always made me throw controllers. [Read more…]
