Excellently Thorough November 23, 2009

This guide is magnificently done. All of the information you want to know about the game can be found inside, and it is organized very well. Screenshots, original artwork, and fully detailed maps underline all of this information.
Only the first few pages recap the simple instructions of how to play the game. It then jumps right into the Walkthrough section, which includes detailed information, including maps, collectibles, secondary missions, and even just game concepts that are introduced. None of the storyline is told without it being in context to what is required for the current mission, keeping the content of the game "safe."
While the walkthrough section is inclusive enough, the last two sections will probably prove the most useful for players who don't want to miss anything, but don't need the walkthrough either.
The Reference & Analysis section gives strategies, special moves, equipment lists, and shops. All of these lists and references include locations, prices, and when it is available in reference to how far you have progressed through the game.
The Extras section starts with an Achievements & Trophies list, but it is more than a simple list, as it gives page numbers to help you find information on completing them and the "Special Feats" are actually described in detail with their own individual breakdowns. The section continues by revealing all of the Free Missions, secrets, collectibles with maps and screenshots of the locations, and puzzle solutions. For some, the included wall poster with all the collectible items marked will solve the achievement/trophy hunter's problem by itself.
The last section includes a recap of the first Assassin's Creed, which is a great refresher for old fans and good background for new fans and then even brings more speculation to light with a section recapping the storyline of Assassin's Creed 2. A fun read for fans interested in the story.
The icing on the cake: a keyword index at the back for looking things up quickly.
Exactly what you want to see 100% of the game content, plus the artwork, plus a recap and analysis of the storyline. Highly recommend for anyone who purchases the game.
