Advantages: Helps you how to play Disadvantages: Long lists of items makes reading the book a little boring
...not bought my copy of the Prima Official Game Guide for Sims2 for the PC, quite a while after I bought the game itself. I paid £12.99 for it from a High Street shop. I think I paid full price for it, but you can find it now for 34% less on Amazon and on line shops, and there are probably lots of copies on Ebay.
The book starts off with the basics of how to play Sims2 and gives some outline as to the basic needs of a Sim. Even though I had owned ... ...the first chapter and first few pages that I had not realised, so the book was starting to pay for itself already. The book itself is over 350 pages thick and it is bright and colourful and it would not be difficult to read the whole thing through in one evening.

There is full information about objects and how they are to be used, how much they cost and the impact of them on your Sims and even their depreciation!
From this wealth of information, you can easily ...

...it tells you all about the Sims 2 not just hints and tips it's also for beginners who don't know what the Sims 2 is all about, and I had a friend in my school and he didn't know much about the Sims 2 but this PRIMA guide taut him how to play the Sims 2!
This Guide also has lots of parts like The basics (How to play with 2 chapters)
Creating neighborhoods, families and Sims (Has 3 chapters in)
Its a lot like life (11 chapters)
All in the family: ... ...tell you a lot about the game, you can also get these prima books on lots of other games including: the Sims 2 Nightlife, University, and Open for business. From my point of view I don't think they would be a time where someone would NOT like a Prima book there not really the sort of books you don't like or even like!
I give this PRIMA GUIDE a rating of 10/10 because overall its very interesting and helpful and I would like to encourage more people ...
