This book was published before the explosion of internet game FAQ and cheat sites so it's not as relevant now as it once was. However, it's a well written book with walkthroughs and cheats for many of the Jaguar's best games (AvP, Doom, Iron Soldier, Raiden, Cannon Fodder, Zool 2 etc).
There are also interviews with Jeff "YAK" Minter and the programmer of Fight For Life for added interest.
It's a shame that the book does not include the full roster of games originally advertised as none of the CD titles or later games (Ultravortek, Defender 2000, Missle Command 3d etc) are present.
Worth picking up if you're an enthusiast or like having a hard copy of texts rather than reading everything off a screen.

A Pretty Decent Hintbook For Beginners...
14 Dec 1999
By Gary T. Duvall
- Published on Amazon.com
I got this book after having a Jaguar for two years previous to my purchase. It's very informative, and quite packed with some good tidbits for the earlier games in the Jaguar library. Why they didn't make another one taking into account the later games is beyond me (other than the fact that Atari went out of business).
Unfortunately, if you're searching strictly for cheats, you're better off today checking around the Atari Jaguar sites on the Internet, as there are an unbelieveable amount of sites that carry cheat sheets and FAQs for these games.
If, however, you're a beginning gamer with some of the earlier titles for the Jaguar system, and needs some visual walkthroughs, I'd suggest purchasing this book. If anything, it's a great addition to your Jaguar collection, and even contains some screens from other games that were upcoming in the library that you may want to check out as well.

Must own for Jaguar owners!

If you own a Jaguar you need this book! Sure you can find most of the stuff in it online but not all of it! Some good interviews in here and its always nice to have a hardcopy for when the net goes down or something that and come on its dirt cheap to pick up!

This book was pretty helpful - it gave hints on stratigies, and on games with multiple levels, it gave hints on every level. It also has codes for the games, and it has information about the Atari Jaguar features. My advice is is if you have many of the games in this book, it is worth the money.
