 Brilliant February 25, 2007

I'll keep this short - it's superb. The best guide I've seen. The hardback edition comes with a protective sleep, and a handy placemarker. The guide is EXTREMELY detailed, and packed with all the information you could possibly want. The walkthrough has extensive maps, showing you exactly where you have to go in what order by use of arrowed-lines. There is also a quick guide for those who only want a quick reference or prompting, as well as a detailed step by step section. These are both split into paragraphs which are headed by a letter, referring to a place on the map for ease of use.
Definitely worth investing in, even if just for a collectors item. It's stunningly beautiful, with artwork galore integrated into the pages.
Another fantastic piggyback guide February 24, 2007

Piggyback have always produced the best guides when it comes to final fantasy games and this is no exception. The guides are have a good layout and are beautifully illustrated. The information provided in the guide is almost always accurate and written in a clear, easy to understand manner. None of the forementioned attributes can be said about the guides produced by bradygames!! This really is the war and peace of strategy guides as it really is THAT big. It doesn't really matter if you buy the paperback version or this guide as either one will tell you everything you'll ever need to know about final fantasy FFXII but i have to say...removing the front cover on this version to reveal the lovely antique style hard cover is a real treat for the eyes. I highly recommend this guide.
WONDERFUL PRESENTATION, EXCELLENT GUIDE!!! February 22, 2007

This limited edition guide book is even bigger than it sounds, with 340 pages and a hard cover it's massive and pretty hefty. The book is as shown with a brown leather-look hardcover and gold embelished symbols, and comes with a protective white slip-cover and a placeholder. As for the contents I've used the Piggyback guides for previous FF games and I've always been impressed with the layouts and vast diagrams, but this FFXII guide (created by a 30 man team) is crammed with so much info and so many tables I just know I wont be needing anything else. Plus, piggyback have made it even more user friendly and easier to find what your looking for. So if you need to complete every nook and cranny of Final Fantasy XII then I suggest you buy this guide. It's a great collector's item and an invaluble companion for the Final Fantasy nutters out there - and contains fantastic artwork.
Very good, absolutely love it! February 22, 2007

The above review sums it all up. Got the guide yesterday and superb delivery!. Piggyback's Final fantasy guides has always been at an exceptional standard and they just get better all the time!. The quality of the pages is very good as each page is glossy and provides a good look and feel.
With the guide being 340 pages long it's more than very good to buy at its price.
The leather combined with the foil makes this a must have buy!
Brilliantly displayed, exceptional statistical tables and built to last February 21, 2007

Having received this just today in the post, I can personally say that this is the finest Piggyback guide produced to date. My initial reaction was that this guide- or rather book, was very thick; over 340 pages to be precise. Increasing the weight and support of the book was the hardback cover, which no doubt will prevent curly ends which even the best kept softback books are subject to suffer from.
Having had a deeper look into the guide, Piggyback's use of maps, detail and presentation instantly convey towards the reader that it is an extremely detailed resource which has been very professionally designed. If you had any of the previous guides from Piggyback, particularly the Final Fantasy X guide, you will notice a far larger enemies section, as well as more statistical tables.
For those interested, this Limited Edition guide is as pictured on the Amazon photo, but comes with an additional white traditional cover slip over the book, as well as a placeholder.
If you prefer to have guides to complete games, get this guide. If you don't normally use a guide to complete games, get this guide. It will prove remarkably useful for the plethora of extras in this game, as well as for obtaining the best equipment and more. A must buy.
