Grand Theft Auto V Signature Series Strategy Guide Paperback – 17 Sept. 2013

Like the title says, this is a Great game guide to a great game.Personally i brought it to help towards getting 100%For the story mode missions its not needed in my opinion.Onto the book its self, I'm really happy with it, yeah the paper used is probably not the best but its certainly not the worst.The details in the book pretty much cover everything, It tells you whats needed to be awarded a Trophy/Achievement.Detailed Maps throughout the book with clearly marked Locations/Events.The art work and layouts are nicely done too. Bradygames have done an Excellent Job, A must have purchase for the Hardcore GTA Fans.The only Downside (kinda) and this has nothing to do with the Book its self but mine, Like some other customersarrived looking as though it had been stored in a damp place before shipping.mines not overly rippled, nor has it effected any of the artwork/printing.taking the above into account id still recommend this to anyone, plus at the time of purchase it was £7.00way cheaper than other retailers.Go on treat yourself.....:)

I rarely buy game guides these days especially with the majority of the answers I need been online or the fact as I get older games just seem to get easier. That said this game is enormous and working all week and so means I will struggle to find the time to find everything the game has to offer such as hidden collectibles.The problem is there was one thing putting me off....Rockstar offer via their Social Club an online checklist for 100% Completion and a map highlighting where everything is that you have and haven't found. This works perfectly for the one thing your probably going to buy this guide for - the hidden collectibles. That said though the guide is 400+ pages in full colour and documents everything from all the vehicles to every mission. If your a veteran GTA fan or just skilled in these kind of games there really is unlikely to be any need for this guide to help you with those kind of things, Just make sue of the Social Club and then buy the guide if neccessary.Thing is Amazon amazingly are selling this for £7.00 which is less than most magazines these days. At this price you'd be insane not to buy it just to look at the pictures and artwork and consider it an extended instruction manual. At RRP though I personally as a GTA fan wouldn't bother because all the info is available for free elsewhere unless you don't have access to the internet of course.

As I've been involved with 3D graphics for some years I've tended to take an interest in computer games, not meaning that I always approve of the content. GTA is violent and debauched, no doubt about that, but as a piece of software engineering and artistic creation it's brilliant and exciting. I love the scenery and lighting- marvellous, must have taken a lot of work involving a large team. I don't mind too much the content as far as I'm personally concerned but without doubt this just adds fuel to the fire which is destroying society today. I know for sure that this game will readily fall into the hands of well under 18s, in fact I would think most of the players are under 18. As for this guide it is moderately helpful, but doesn't give controller commands which is one thing you do need from the very start of and as usual instructions are sparse with the game.

Wanted this as a Kindle download but it didn't seem to be available as one, though there were many unofficial ones. So I ordered the paperback and to be honest I am glad I did. An attractive soft-bound 420+ page manual designed to help you get the best and full potential from the awesome game GTA V. It tells you all about every main and side mission, with a step-by-step guide on how to complete them, if you wanted to. Plus it has details of all the extra bits such as random events, hobbies and pastimes in the game, vehicle and weapon details, and information on the "freaks" and where to find them. Vary clearly laid out with many pictures to help you as you play.A must have addition to the awesome game.

This 'Grand Theft Auto V' guide book is quintessential to any fan or newcomer to the franchise.A brief overhaul of what you're getting with this guide:Colourful artwork and illustrationsCharacter skills analysis (i.e. stamina)Vehicle/boat/plane locations (very extensive given the choice!)Weapon locations (brilliant if you happen to be out of pocket in the game!)Tips and hintsMap of Los SantosTrophy listStory mode mission guideOthers have argued that other sources such as IGN would have summarised this guide, however old school as I am, I prefer to own the physical product. It's a great collectors item to own, and if like me, you find Los Santos a tad overwhelming to venture out in, then this guide will pave your way to successfully completing the game.

This is a lifesaver when you just can't figure something out in GTAV (like where to find the hookers), even after trying for the millionth time! Like when you can't complete a mission without finding something that is irritatingly small which is stuck in the most remote part of the game, or those bloody helicopter missions that are damn near impossible to complete. In fact, to be honest, I ended up cheating through most of the game as some parts were so frustratingly difficult, but this book helped me with some of the most important parts of GTAV, such as how to get the lap dancers to come home with you and where to find the hookers! Good buy!
