But you WILL need a stapler. Im not kidding. The binding is TERRIBLE! Everyone I know has had their book completely fall apart at the seam. Read the other reviews...you'll see.

But this IS an indispensible guide to one of my ALL time favorite games. The best game (in my humble opinion) to carry the name Final Fantasy. Thats saying ALOT. And this book is the only "official" strategy guide Ive found that didnt dissappoint me.

Stapler, you're not kidding!  Oct 31, 2000 By Jades Eternal
This is a great strategy guide with full-color, detailed maps for every battle. There are minor spelling mistakes and translation errors, but that is expected with every strategy guide. In all my years of role playing, I've never come across a guide that is 100% accurate. The biggest problem is the binding for this book is terrible. The book will fall apart in no time, but it's still worth it. It's nothing a little tape won't take care of. Gea!

Little things are wrong  Jul 12, 1999
One major problem with the book was that the battle hint guides were far too vague. Also, there were tons of little errors in it. But I probably would have enjoyed it more if it hadn't completely fallen apart.

This book is the best for detailed guidance in tough places.  Feb 07, 1999
Prima's always been goodm to me and proves the same in this guidebook. Final Fantasy Tactics is a hard game to play without knowing what to do. This book tells you all the secrets, all the strategys, and everything you could possibly want to know about the game! I couldn't get pass the third battle without it! This guide is spectacular and can give you the edge in the game without spoiling the fun.

This book is awesome!!!!  Sep 27, 1999
This book is very, very helpful in battle strategy and in helping you with what is to come next. I wouldn't recommend it your first ime through the game if you want the true gaming experience, but after that if you need it for some hidden item that you just cannot find, go right ahead. This book is the ultimate in strategy guides.
