5 out of 5 stars Are the reviews for this particular guide?   November 4, 2008
This guide only released today November 4, 2008.
There are already reviews for this guide.
I think the reviews here are for older guides of this game by Prima.
Past guides either covered just the Wii or just the GameCube version.

An older guide had a gold foil stamped hardcover and was a Collectors edition released November 13, 2007
Find this guide with this isbn 0761557857
New Content! - Sixteen pages of new content added. Full Legendary Checklists for quick ref of all collectibles.
Cloth Overworld Map - A collectible poster map of the Overworld printed on cloth to keep you oriented in Hyrule. (the cloth map isn't that great it has strings coming off it one reviewers said)
Every item is covered in Prima's Guide - Every collectible item and Rupee location in the entire game world revealed.
Premier Maps - Exclusive maps for every Dungeon in the game.
(The legendary checklist at the back didn't detail the location of Poe Souls or Golden Bugs, which could've helped in many cases. The heart checlist is pretty good, though, telling you where to find them. The checklist also details on finding equipment and items. So it's not so bad. )

Another guide was a Wii Version Paperback released November 28, 2006
Written specifically for the Wii version!

This guide released November 4, 2008 is suppose to cover both Nintendo GameCube and WII versions of the game.
432 pages
This guide should have isbn 0761561595

Anyone who buys this guide and reviews it should see if it lists the following:

Is there a checklist telling you where to find all of this stuff so you don't have to do a lot of page flipping?
Is the guide well organized?
Are the pictures large enough?
Does it tell how to beat the Cave of Ordeals?
Does it have a fishing guide?
Does it tell how to catch legendary Hylian Loach fish?
Also include pictures of this guide.






5 out of 5 stars good walkthrough   November 1, 2008
This guide book really helps. I like that the side quests are not in their own section. The book tells you when the side quests are available.


3 out of 5 stars Sometimes I feel like I'm reading a novel instead of gaming   August 7, 2008
If you are the kind of gamer who likes to do things on their own and simply look at a guide for occasional hints, be wary of buying this guide. The writers take paragraphs to describe a course of action that can be summed up in two sentences, which gets very frustrating and honestly, annoying. The biggest downside to this guide is that it doesn't have charts on where to locate certain items such as heart pieces, golden bugs, and poes. So, if you miss something, good luck trying to find it again somewhere in the 432ish pages of fury.

Despite my criticism of this guide, I am actually glad I bought it. The battle tactics are effective and the maps are great. It really isnt a bad guide all in all, it is just too long.



3 out of 5 stars how many pages?!   June 13, 2008
I am having a hard time with this guide. Some of it is helpful but there are parts that just go on and on. I'm completely lost at this point and time with the game because I have no idea where to go and I can't see where I am in the book. I should have just paid extra for the Nintendo game guide!


5 out of 5 stars Great guide   January 18, 2008
I bought this guide with the game and thanks to this guide I am actually making it through the game. Its a great guide and is able to get you everything while not distracting you to much from your journey. I'd highly recommend it
