Come for the Strategy Guide, Stay for the Art Book.......2007-08-08
The Onimusha games take a unique twist on the survival horror genre: instead of creepy modern urban locales and gunfights, you play a samurai (and other characters from feudal Japan) battling zombies and other beasts and demons through fantastically detailed castles, underground lairs, temples and mountain hideaways. And, to get the most out of these games, you'll definitely need a strategy guide, as there are some secrets and hidden items you just won't find on your own. BradyGames has always done a great job with their strategy guides, and so I can recommend the strategy guide that comes in this limited edition set without any reservations - go for it!
This set also comes with another book - an art book that displays conceptual art from Onimusha 3 and the two previous games. This book is nice to look at, and there is a good amount of art, but most of it centers on the present game - the art for the other games is less conceptual art and more simply the official character illustrations that can be found in the booklets that come with each game; this is disappointing, but still acceptable. If you like good conceptual art, this is definitely a good one to add to your collection.
Great Special Edition!.......2004-05-03
This is an outstanding value. Not only do you get the strategy guide, with a neat all black cover (cool pic of Samanoske and Jacques in Onimusha mode on the back), but you also get a Onimusha art book that contains art from all three games.
The guide is quite good, as it helps you get past those sticky points you may have trouble with in the game. For the extra couple of bucks, I highly recommend the limited edition guide.

Battle the undead without becoming one of them!.......2001-03-22
So, you have all probably heard all the hype over Onimusha Warlords. Critics say this will be ps2 first million seller, so does it deliver? Oh heck yeah! Playing this game to the break of dawn in constant amazement over story and graphics. Finally it all came to an end and victory was mine. Wanting more I purchased the official statagy guide. It brought to light all what I missed and neglected. The guide tells the story of onimusha and the backgrounds of characters. Indepth explanations of baddies and stratagies for over coming seemingly impossible situations. Detailed maps are included showing the location of all the goodies you will need to survive. Hate going back and forth between screens to solve puzzles? With the guide you have the books you need to collect right in front of you. For you more ambitious types the guide contains the extra missions you can play after beating the game. Not only is this book informative it is also beautiful. The pages are over layed with pictures of Japanese woodcuts from their mythology. This is for sure a must have book for a must have game.

Customer Reviews:
Great guide and is in-depth.......2002-09-18
If you're like me, then you like Dan Birlew and the BradyGAMES Signature Series guides. These guides are very in-depth and after the Devil May Cry guide got this off to a great start, the Onimusha 2 guide keeps it going. I'll give you tons of reason why this is the best Strategy Guide (in my opinion) then any other Onimusha guide out there.
First of all, like any guide (or hopefully any guide), there is the walkthrough. This walkthrough is very in-depth with ultra detailed maps that pin-point every item! The walkthough is precise and quite possibly one of the most in-depth organized walkthrough from BradyGAMES to date. The author does a great job explaining the strategies, and talks about the better approach for Offensive and defensive battle tatics against bosses.
The game basics section is for me especially. If you don't feel you get enough explanation on attacks etc. from the instruction booklet (like me) then the game basics section does a great job on explaining just how to get critical hits, when is best to attack and when its best to just haul you butt out of there.
There is also a list included for trading items. The only gripe I have with this list (and the guide) is that this trading list isn't in alphabetical order, meaning you'll be reading up and down the list just to find if the item is worth trading to another. But they do explain how to trade and tell you what you'll get too!
The alliances to form are listed in the back of the book in a flowchart. This shows you just what path to take! But it also explains just how you should form alliances as well. They tell you what the benefits are as well.
The secrets and sidequests and telling you how to use each character (combos and everything are explained). The side quest are brillantly outlined and easy to use. They tell you who gets what too. The secrets also explain a lot about the different difficulty levels and the Man in Black mini game.
Lastly, the guide completely covers the Oni mini game with a tear out wall scroll to go along with it. This is a great guide and if you're going to get Onimusha 2 then you should definitely get this book!
On the Positive side:
+Great Maps!
+Great Strategies!
+Crystal Clear screens with helpful captions
+Hey! Its Signature series
+Tricks of Trade revealed
+Side Quests explained
+Both mini-games explained
+Game Basics actually help you learn the game better then the manual.
+Interview with Keiji Inafune!
But on the downside
-The trading items list is out of order
-Some boss strategies are a little too focused on defense

The Best Guide for this game.......2001-03-12
Well, i'll tell you this...Prima's guide is ten times better than the Brady games guide, and that's something that doesn't happen often. First off, the maps...The prima games guide has maps that actually resemble what the game looks like. The maps have all the details that are in the game, and point out where everything is...the brady games guide looks like the maps were drawn with a big marker...they just show the outline of the levels, with no details really. The prima games guide gives enough information to get you through the game without walking you step by step through the game...this alows the guide to be effective without spoiling the story. The one complaint with this is that it doesn't have a answer section to the treasure box puzzles...these puzzles force you to look around for 4 sets of these books that give you the answer to the puzzle box. If this guide had just given the answers to these puzzle boxes, you would just be able to get the item in the box without having to perform the annoying task of finding the code and then backtracking to the box. Otherwise, this is a great Guide, one of Prima's best.
Book Description
In this absorbing tale, you watch the timeless principles of servant leadership unfold through the story of John Daily, a businessman whose outwardly successful life is spiraling out of control. He is failing miserably in each of his leadership roles as boss, husband, father, and coach. To get his life back on track, he reluctantly attends a weeklong leadership retreat at a remote Benedictine monastery.
To John's surprise, the monk leading the seminar is a former business executive and Wall Street legend. Taking John under his wing, the monk guides him to a realization that is simple yet profound: The true foundation of leadership is not power, but authority, which is built upon relationships, love, service, and sacrifice.
Along with John, you will learn that the principles in this book are neither new nor complex. They don't demand special talents; they are simply based on strengthening the bonds of respect, responsibility, and caring with the people around you. Perhaps this is why
The Servant has touched readers from all walks of life—because its message can be applied by anyone, anywhere—at home or at work.
If you are tired of books that lecture instead of teach; if you are searching for ways to improve your leadership skills; if you want to understand the timeless virtues that lead to lasting and meaningful success, then this book is one you cannot afford to miss.

Poor allocation of regurgitated ideas.......2007-10-03
The only reason this book earns a second star is because the book chose good quotes and philosophies to review. This book could of been better had the Author left out all the characters in the daily classes and created a more personal relationship between the main character and Simeon where they explored Simeon's priciples deeper and with more theoretical applications and systems. But, it didn't and this book was painfully slow at times while on the tangents of the attendees of the leadership class. I really don't know how this book got such a high rating and waited for it to pick up the entire time I read it and it didn't. My opinion: Don't waste your time and money, stick with the classics - and this book it certainly no classic.
Fantastic Book.......2007-09-14
This is simply one of the best books I have ever read. I would place it in my top ten category, and I plan to read it again. James C. Hunter ties information together from several different fields of knowledge and areas of expertise. I plan to recommend this book to those I love and to those with whom I have influence. It was recommended to our class as optional reading by a professor of School Leadership in a doctoral class I am taking, and even though this book was simple and easy to read, the information contained in it was more valuable than the information I have obtained in some classes, where I spent an entire semester. Don't let the simple writing, storybook-style fool you- There are huge nuggets of wisdom in this book.
True servant leadership........2007-07-18
This book reads easily with a wonderful story of true servant leadership. Recommended for those in leadership or management roles.
Great Gift for Leadership Colleagues.......2007-07-13
This book has been a staple for new and tenured managers to communicate two very important aspects of leadership: 1. It's not about you; it's about others. 2. Balance in your life. No greater leader ever exemplified this better than Jesus. You don't have to be religious or spiritual to see the clear message this book sends.
Not just for work!.......2007-06-08
I read this book approximately 5 years ago as a loan from a friend and it has such great concepts it changed my perspective on many things in my life. It had such an impact, I decided to purchase so that I would own it and re-read it. It was almost better the second time around. It reminded of the background of many concepts I learned and now I have picked up on things I missed the first time. Definitely a great book for anyone to read whether for business or personal application - since as parents we must lead our children to success!
