Spore: Prima Official Game Guide (Prima Official Game Guides)
David Hodgson
Prima Games, 2008
Handy Reference but could use better visuals
I've found the guide to be a very handy reference when I need a quick explanation of something. It could use some better visuals when describing certain functions, such as the terraforming panels, etc.
Overall, it's good to have it around so you don't get lost. It's ...

Prima Games, 2008
Completely Useless
I recommend NOT wasting the money on this guide. It seems only half-finished with very vague descriptions of the different character and item uses. The guide may help you get through minor areas of the game, but it does nothing that a few moments of game-play problem ...

McGraw-Hill Osborne Media, 2007
Wouldn't have passed without it!
I can honestly say that if it weren't for this book I probably would not have passed my CISSP exam. Unlike other prep-guides, Shon engages the reader and keeps their attention. Also, this book doesn't read like a "read this book and pass an exam" book. It reads like a ...

The best gets better every year
I still buy and read the Guinness Record book every year, because it's become like an old friend that I like to catch up with, but I have to disagree with Birch East. I like the way it has changed and brings out a fresh look each year. The changes, like holograms, 3D ...
