Learn how to shoot skags

My title may sound a little gross, but this guide really tells you the best way to NOT become skag vomit! The guide shows you all the various missions and side missions in this game. The weapons are all here and you know before you are eligble to get these weapons which ones are the best for that mission. The maps are very good and show you exactly where the bad guys and the best swag are. The images are from the game and give you a real good idea of what you are up against. Bradygames always does an excellant guide. Now, go kill some skags and get the money and ammo they vomit up.

Best game ever!!

This is a truly awesome game. Seamless transitions, huge world to explore, awesome treasures and weapons everywhere. On my third playthrough and I amm not bored yet!!

Great Guide

Despite all of the negative reviews of this guide i thought it was a pretty good guide. All of the complaints about not being able to find a certain quest/area in the guide are rediculous considering all of the quests both in the guide and game are presented in a fairly linear fashion. The maps are incredibly useful, especially for finding all of the hidden gun/item chests, or if your having a hard time finding an item for a particular quest. The weapons guide isnt as inclusive as i would have liked it to be, but there are SO many guns in Borderlands youd likely need a completely seperate guide for it to be complete. They do however cover all of the different manufacturers and types of weapons, and all of the legendary weapons. The bestiary part of the guide is nice but not particularly useful, even on the boss fights, since the loot is random and even the static drops have random stats. My only real complaint is the lack of info of the 3 Borderlands DLC that are currently available. Even though they werent available at first, the game isnt that old, and the content was likely already finished before the guide was.. Probably means there will be a "Game of the Year" edition of Borderlands and the guide

A pretty good guide from bradygames

I don't usually like Brady guides (which tend to be hard on the eyes and not terribly helpful), but this one is quite good. While it's true it doesn't fill in much of the story or flesh out the characters, there are good maps and helpful suggestions on how to order the quests as well as how to approach them. The only complaint I really have is that the weapons charts aren't very useful. As for the comparisons with the one of the best guides ever written for one of the best games ever made (Fallout 3), I don't think they're fair. There are so many choices in Fallout 3 that are game effecting and that guide covers those things in depth. The choices in Borderlands, on the other hand, are not so vast. It's about shooting things and getting stuff and this guide covers those things quite well.

Huge Guide, Lots of Info

No idea why there are nay-sayers for this guide. It's huge and packed with great info. Contains maps for all the areas and info for all the quests. Breaks down the skills and talks about some of the cooler weapons you can find. It's everything I had hoped for and more!
