Brady Games' Misprint in GTA:SA Strategy Guide

angry.gif I think that in the next GTA (GTA4?) there should be a big building with a sign that reads "BRADE E. GAMES" and there should be a continually protesting force outside of this building! It would be a great spoof on how we are feeling about this piss poor quality and customer service that Brady Games has provided. devil.gif

Im sorry if I sound stupid, but even though I havent read all the posts, and seeing as the first link doesnt work. What is exactly wrong with the Photo Ops and Horseshoes? Just before I start on them, thats all.

Apparently the photo ops in the guide are all about 10 meters to one side of where they actually are in the game.

 

I don't remember the horseshoe problem exactly, but I think their map only showed 99 or 100.

They also originally had all the pictures of the photo ops switched around so that they didn't match. Meaning that photo op #x would show a pic of photo op #n. They at least released corrections for that and a few other things.

 

If you go to their website and type in the ISBN# on your book you can get a .PDF of the fixed page(s). (or to save some time click here and click "updates and corrections")

So, what do we have? A potentially lethal paramedic book, a dodgy MCII guide, and the worst guide for SA ever known to (wo)man. I got mine half price, 'cos the guy in GAME reccomended me not to buy it confused.gif . Oh, well, I let the dog chew it up tounge.gif . It took her a while with all those wasted pages of crap. The next day I got one in PowerStation mag, which also listed hints for schools, glitches, a hidden interiors guide, hints on exploring Liberty, and all cheats. For £4, plus the rest of the mag.

die.gif BRADY.

Oh, BTW, I really agree about the Brade E. Games building, or you could have some BRA D. SUX license plates.

My friend and I had a bet, he betted me that he could get all the ‘collectables’ before me… he was all happy and smug because he had a Brady Games Guide… I wasn’t that confident because I thought that the guide would really help him.

 

How shocked was I when I won the bet!!! lol.gif All because the guide sucked big!!!

 

We found so many errors in the guide that we burned it!!! lol.gif

 

 

In the next GTA... rahkstar2.gif should have a Brady Games factory in a mission that at the end gets burned down!!! lol.gif

First of all. All you people pissed off at the maps of the brady games players guide. If you looked, you'd notice a pattern. They're ALL off. They're ALL shifted to the left a bit. So instead of complaining, just look at where it is on the map, and look to the right of it bit. They

are all equally shifted, so you should be looking about 3/4 of an inches to the right of where it says on the map. I have found all the horseshoes and packages and tags and such using this method. I think the same may hold true for the vice city guide.

 

I was wondering, what is Mystery Weapon 1 & 2?? Anybody find them? I'm thinking that I've probably walked over them several times, but you'd need to hit L1 to actually get it, and I didn't realize I might until now so I'lll continue looking. But if anybody has found them first, let me know

i just hope they dnt f**k GTA IV's guide up!!

I wonder if Rockstar will be actually using Brady Games as the official strategists; because of the poor quality, it might not be surprising to see them change.

Dude this guide is SHOCKING! It's like they've hired a bunch of monkeys to work on these and not smart monkeys either. We should all write our own guides, as it only tells you what to do and the maps are shocking. Snapshots are out of this world, lituarly! a 2 year old could do better. End of rant, see you. angry.gif

Chuckle...Chuckle.... Man, you are a bit late (a couple of years), avid players know that the Brady Guides are only good for beginners. And, that they have significant errors (for copyright reasons).
