Adequate, but disappointing by A. Rose
I am one of those completist gamers who likes to get everything available the first time through the game; therefore, a strategy guide is usually an absolute must for me. Unfortunately, there is a wide variation in quality, and this one leans pretty heavily towards the lower end of the spectrum. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still useful, but on the whole it feels sloppy and thrown-together, rather than comprehensive and helpful.
One of the things that really mars the presentation is how badly organized it is. The walkthroughs are relatively helpful, but oftentimes a crucial bit of information that was mentioned previously is left out, leaving you to flip back through trying to find it. Another problem is that the guide was apparently written for a beta version of the game - it talks about gameplay and story elements that aren’t available in the game itself and leaves out others that are. Taken as a whole, it just feels like it was done in a hurry by someone who wasn’t paying attention.
On the whole, the guide does work, but I wouldn’t recommend purchasing it - you can find much better-organized and more thorough collections of the same information for free online. It’s far from unusable, though, so it’ll work if you need to have something nearby for reference and don’t own a laptop computer.
Prima’s Strategy Guides by Ben Lemmon
Despite the beliefs of others, I believe this guide is actually helpful. Of course, the guide is not going to pass the game for you, you have to do that yourself. More or less, this gives you an outline of what you need to do, you just have to be smart enough to comprehend what it is that they are telling you. All one should need when playing these games is to know the answers to the most difficult puzzles. If you cannot accomplish something on your own, then Knights of the Old Republic isn’t for you, so look elsewhere.
Of course, with everything, there is also some faults, but then everything can’t be perfect. The maps are helpful to guide you to where you need to go, especially on Dantooine. From what I’ve seen, there are times when the guides can be wrong. They also sometimes use pre-production graphics which you look forward to and then are let down. That is practically it.
One should look at these guides basically as outlines. For the most part, outlines help you learn and remember things, but they are not going to teach you everything on the subject. So learn to deal with what you’ve got.

Better Than The Others Say by
Every time I looked in this guide it made me want to play it, but unfortunately I’m not very far. That’s because my skills in this game aren’t good. I did manage to get from the Vulker base to creating my own light saber. I do think you should get this cheat book. It helped me get through an area when I couldn’t do it on my own (in the sewers on Teris). But above all, it’s a good cheat book.
