Rating:  - Organization-NOT
Not a lot of specific help issues. Maps not of great help. No one-page overview map of the whole game. Had to consistantly flip back and forth to find specifics for even the same section of game. Overall, not very well organized or of great help.
Rating: - Why do I keep buying Prima guides?
This guide is more buggy than the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. game it purports to bring to light. It is basically a hard copy of the guide which is already installed at the \Program Files\THQ\S.T.A.L.K.E.R. - Shadow of Chernobyl\ directory created at installation. I will not get into what I think about the game, this review is for the guide and I am trying to save some people a ten spot or more in avoiding this inept work. The primary usefulness of this guide is to beginning players, but even then it is hardly ... Read More
Rating:  - Somewhat dissapointing
If you are looking for the best path through the game, it may be better to find a free online walkthrough, especially since I heard that there are bugs in many of the side missions, making a fair number of those unstable. So, it is possible that some of the book's information about side missions is useless. I'm unsure how well the new patch, or future patches, fix these problems. The character and weapon art in the margins is extremely good, except that there is no closeup drawing of the fascinating ... Read More
Rating:  - Really cool, minor problems
It wasn't as open ended as I had hoped but still and amazing game. The atmosphere alone is worth the money. Really sweet concept and monsters however I was really disappointed by the online play. I have horrible lag problems with it and I'm running cable internet with dual 4200 processors, 2 gigs of ram and a x1900 pro video card which leaves me to believe it's simply the servers. Oh well, single player is definetly enough fun. Buy this game, you won't be disappointed:-D

This game is unique. I advise buying the Prima Game Guide and obtain a download of the IGN FAQ on the game. Even with these you will find it a confusing and tough game but it is worth the effort. I sculled around in the game at first and got used to its strange russian ways. Its a good idea to do this because you then get used to some of the rules and the odd morals of the game. Good gun battles - fun wepons - good monsters - the the humanoid phychic mutant has a mind weapon that really puts the ... Read More
