I bought this book for my boyfriend... I bought this book for my boyfriend several months ago and he sincerely loved the book. (Not to mention that this hardbound version coped well with the rough-and-tumble life of a college student.) I have since fallen into the Fallout 3 craze and I personally love this guide and would recommend it highly to any lover of Fallout or those seeking for some good information.

Not bad, could be way better. This is a pretty nice thing to have if you're a big Fallout fan or can find it somewhere for less than $30, it has all of the same info as the $25 standard guide plus a nice hardcover, some art in the back and an extra large poster map of the Wasteland.
I can understand the difficulty involved in writing a guide for such a massive and mostly non-linear game, and most or all of the info you will ever want is in this guide... somewhere. That's the only problem with the guide, if you have a question and need to look something up, good luck. It could be in a number of different places, and with no index, you'll find yourself going to the Table of Contents and guessing at different places to look. The organization of the book seemed strange to me at first, but the more I thought about it, it's probably the best way to do it considering the size of the game. It starts off with an in-depth look at the SPECIAL system and the different skills and perks, then follows up with some general tips for playing the game. Next up is the Bestiary, listing the different factions and enemies you will encounter, followed by a walkthrough for the main quest. Next up are walkthroughs for each of the many side quests, with explainations for all of the different branching points you may encounter in each. Following that is the Tour section, which exhaustively lists every location, item and person that you can find in the game. This section is probably where you will spend most of your time when you have questions while exploring, and it could really use an index. Next is a quick description of the different endings and how they are achieved, then some appendices which are actually quite useful, and finally an extras section which is mostly artwork with comments on how they made the game.
Overall, I'm happy with my purchase, having ordered from Amazon for $23.09.
I used the guide very little on my first way through the game, only checking it if I got stuck or had a specific question about consequences of certain choices, but I'm looking forward to starting a new game and using the guide extensively(this time I'm going to be a very bad character...)
