Do NOT buy the Guide for Assassin's Creed by Prima!

[MadaRenrut]

Hopefully this isn't to late for anyone thinking about buying the guide. This guide is full of missing flag locations etc. Just to be exact so this doesn't get pulled on page 92 for the Damascus middle district, a flag location is pointed out on the map for 34 however it does not give a discription on where to find it, it only list 33 in the checklist, on that same page number 26 on the checklist says in a small courtyard however there is no 26 marked on the map. There are other missing locations in cities and the kingdom for maps and wrong areas to look for them listed.
It is mindboggling to think these people put out an incomplete guide but they did. For anyone else who has bought this trash guide I already called the number for the company found on the first page to complain, they instructed me to just return it to the store for a refund, and if the store doesn't refund it then to call them back and they will refund it. the number is 1-800-793-2665 that is a different number in than what it is in the book cause they have a seperate consumber line that they will tell you to call and hang up, so don't bother calling the number in the book.

actually i got all flags and templars just by using the guide...

well i don't know how that is possible if you used the prima game guide. because if you go to the prima website, and go the xbox 360 forums, and then to assassin's creed guide fourm http://forums.primagames.com/showthread.php?t=1427 you will see the many other people who have purchased this guide that give even more examples of how many flags are missing, many city flags missing, kingdom flags are missing. and how the prima company is doing absolutely nothing to correct the problem, not pulling the guide off the shelves or putting a warning about how the guide is incomplete, even "bylle" prima team member moderator of the forums, is saying there are missing flags and all he can say is the company and author are currently working on the problem.

-Shrugs- Why buy guides when you can get them offa this site...For free !?

And to be honest the ones on here are much better.

Good luck getting your money back ;]

gorjira i 100 percent agree with you. the effort and great information these members give in games are great and even better than these game guides. i was just impatient (sp?) on waiting for a guide to come up on the site, a mistake i won't make again. just making sure no one else was going to make the same mistake as i did.

TBH mate, you can find guides all over the internet for free. I never buy official guides anymore (apart from Final Fantasy, but this is just to add to my collection)

I used a combination of scanned PRIMA guide pages and this website. And didn't pay a penny. I managed the 1000.

I totally agree with you who needs to waste money on guides when this site does better ones.

[she haunts me]

the prima guide was terrible....as is a lot guides published by Prima, IMO

up to now i only find one problem about this guide. and this is about damacus middle.
they correctly specify the location of 34 flag on the map but they are write the locations of 33 flag.

Using the Prima Guide I got all the flags and 59/60 Templers.
