As a child I’d occasionally get videogame strategy guides at garage sales which largely fostered my long-term love of reading.

I’m sure others have similar stories so what were some of your favorite Brady/Prima/other strategy guides?

To start off for me:

  • Sonic Adventure 2 Battle
  • Jak 3
  • Knights of the Old Republic
  • Banjo-Kazooie

Jak 3 is probably my personal favorite as I remember liking the artwork/concept art a lot as well as blurbs written in-character.

That reminded me that at some point I ended up with a FF13 guide and, despite not living the game, really enjoying it.

I purchased an FFX guide when I was very young but unfortunately I remember it having coffee stains all throughout.

Coffee stains? Those are called battle scars. That was a great guide.
