Final Fantasy X-2: The Official Guide

Don't do review that much but this one deserved one. The delivery took only 3 days, 2 once it was picked n ready. arrived via signature which was more impressive as it means they made sure i'd get it quickly and excellent condition. The guide itself arrived sealed and in mint condition which explains the smile on my face when i saw it. :) The guide itself is just like FFViii, it has everything you need to know from the enemy, the items in game to the little mini things that make the game more interesting and at times - easier lol I still haven't FULLY read it just skimmed through it and couldn't be happier with the purchase. If anyone is wanting to play this game, or is currently playing it i would advise them to get this guide, it's well worth the little bit of money for insanely many hours worth of play :). (the key thing for me atm i would say is the full intel about the dress spheres)

With RPG's I tend to complete the game myself first and with such games as this where you have multiple endings as well as a percentage completion I redo the game with a guide. If you've ever bought more than a couple of different guides then you will most likely know that piggy back never fail to deliver when it comes to strategy guides. They are well presented, full of secrets and contain a more than adaquete walkthrough to boot. This particular guide is not as good as some of the previous ones in Piggyback's repertoire. I myself think the Final Fantasy VIII one is much better. The X-2 guide is extremely well put together. However, Even with the guide gaining 100% is a lot harder than it sounds. It is easy to overlook certain points and you could miss certain events that may be required to complete in order to achieve the elusive 100% completion. I believe with the guide I managed around 98% which isn't too bad and I managed to see the "best ending". I won't give that away though as it's a bit of a spoiler. If you like guides for games then you will love this. If you genuinely need a strategy guide because you can't actually complete the game without it then this will help you as well. If you want to uncover all the games secrets then this guide is for you. I highly recommend this.... I'm still missing one costume though, luckily it's mascot which is a poor costume.

Trying to maximise your % completion of this game can be a nightmare, this guide covers pretty much everything you'll need an is filled with beautiful official artwork. Very important thing to note - this does NOT cover the international version of FFX-2, so all the additional content including extra dresspheres, monsters, and the monster capturing and arena systems are not mentioned in it.

The book is in almost perfect condition, there is a little wear on the corners but that is expected from a used, also a great price

The ffx-2 official strategy guide is an extremely helpful tool for those wanting a 100% completion score. This guide boasts fantastic artwork and an easy to follow walk through which explains all 'hotspot' missions (which are essential to the story) step-by-step. The secrets section contains information on the side missions and a checklist needed for the 100% completion score and thus the secret ending every fan of ffx needs to see. Maps for all areas are readily available in case you get lost. These include points on interest and chests holding valuable items. All foes are listed with stats and weaknesses if you're having trouble in an encounter. Many aspects of ffx-2 differ from the previous game. As such, the beginning of the guide explains new concepts, like dress spheres and the garment grids, to allow the player to jump right into the game. Overall, a brilliant guide. I highly recommended it for those looking to play ffx-2 for the first time.

As always the Final Fantasy Strategy guides are extremly helpful! they tell you everything you need to know about that game! and with FFX-2 being different to the rest of the Final Fantasy series, this guide is a must! Especially if you are wanting to achieve the "Perfect Ending" scenario (100% Completion) The FFX-2 title is such a massive game, although the main story will take you about 18 hours to complete, the secondary missions that aid to the development of the story takes the completion time all the way to 50+ hours! This guide does justice as it tells you where to find everything, how to do things and important scenes that are not to be missed. This guide is a must of ALL final fantasy fans, even to those who don't want to cheat, this is essiental if you want to see the full ending of the game (you cannot do this alone! trust me!) The only downside is that you have to do alot of flicking through, the main maps of the locations are in the walkthrough section, but in the secrets chapter, it doesn't print you a map for some missions but tells you to "refer to pages XX & XX for maps and keys" which can be annoying at times. Overall, worth buying! So stop reading and BUY IT! go on! Do it for the "Perfect Ending"!! :D

The cover was very dirty and took 15 minutes of careful cleaning to remove the dirt but otherwise the book is in great condition. As far as I know there aren't many differences between FFX-2 and the HD remaster version so this guide is much cheaper, and any differences can easily be found online. Would definitely recommend.

Ideal for my game
