Where to buy game guides SA?

Hi all.

Last year I was fortunate enough to go oversea to the UK. One thing that stood out for me was the wide variety of items sold at very small game retailers, one of these being dozens of game guides in the form of books.

This is something that I have actually never seen being sold in the game shops here in SA.:confused:

I am currently looking for the Piggyback-Interactive Final Fantasy 13 game guide, however I have only found it on online stores. I checked with BT-Games who neither sold them or could assist me, on phoning Kalahari.net I was informed that it would take more than 3 weeks for them to actually get the book. :eek:

Before I consider ordering it from an online store, does anybody know where you can find a (games, books, etc) shop that would sell game guides?

I can't believe I'm going to be this helpful after the little sleep I had, but, we're a friendly forum so:

Here is the link to the book / guide you want from www.amazon.co.uk: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Final-Fantas...0126570&sr=8-2

Through the MAGIC that is www.take2.co.za, you can import the book through them....I'm already made the link for you:

http://more.take2.co.za/request.php?...570%26sr%3D8-2

It's flippen expense though: R811.00? Ouchies.

You can bring in ANYTHING from amazon (UK or USA) through www.take2.co.za , it's a great service, but sometimes expensive

Look and listen stores most of them still have them but for the one you looking not sure.

wow, thanks for such speedy replies.
yeah that limited EDT is very expensive was actually looking for the soft cover

My reply was better. Crzwaco: you amateur. LMAO.

Also too my surprise try exclusive books, they have had a few at the pavillion branch. But its mostly older games like GTA4 WOW etc etc

Your second part of your comment pwns my original reply to his thread lol.

You can buy the pdf version of most guides from prima guides: http://www.primagames.com/guides/ Most are about $19.99.

Also, keep an eye on these guys: http://guides.gamepressure.com/game_...testgameguides

I love their guides, and they're free!

They don't have a FF XIII guide, YET!

Hehe just play FFXIII without it. There is not much you can miss, and anything you might is not important unlike previous FF's. Also the user-made ones are great on many occassion. The forums also have amazing info.

Worry about getting a guide on a 2nd playthrough, (unless this is). I like guides, but I feel if one uses them too often they can ruin a game experience, and make a person lazy. Remember this only if you use it on your first playthrough.

I personally just get mine from Amazon UK. Yeah it takes a little while, but its close to half the price than some local retailers are charging for them. And I rather wait for a better deal.

Online guides are the way to go, but I have seen BTGames selling some game guides. Didn't check the prices.
