I got the guide. Love it. It's smaller than the Nocturne guide, but it seems to have just as much info. I haven't looked at anything beyond the intro and section that goes over the Japanese school system.

I suggest everyone get the guide for the Japanese school system/culture section alone, because I'm sure it'll help out during the experience. It goes through all the holidays, rules, and Japanese terms in case you don't know what the fuck some character says in the game through moon speak.

Highly suggested. I like the feel of the paper a lot. Gives it a professional feeling in my opinion.

Great job as usual Double Jump.

Is there a lot of art in it? And is it really worth it? $20 is a little too high for a guide for me...

I'll probably get it either way.I did buy the guides for Nocturne and Devil Summoner,but not for DDS.Didn't think it was necessary at the time.

DDS didn't have a guide.

The guide has a lot of art in it, aero. And think of it this way, Nocturne's guide costs as much as the game online now. Even if you pay 20 bucks for it now, the resell value will likely triple in due time.

Most normal guides are like, what, $15? If it's anything like the Nocturne guide, the extra $5 will be worthwhile.

My bad...I did not know that,that's probably why I don't remember it.I was using GameFAQs at the time,so that's why I didn't even bother with the idea of looking for it.

And I have to agree,I think it is worth it...I mean,it's under 30 dollars,sounds about right to me.I would say....get it now,or regret it later.I had to find the Nocturne guide off ebay.I can't remember how much I paid for it,but it wasn't really that much.

After looking through the guide I have only one complaint: how come there's no section that goes over how to get specific Persona?

Since they've delayed the game, I've decided to pick up the guide to help me move through the entire game faster. Should I order online or go to a Gamestop/EB and pick one up?

Go to your eb/gs and see if they've got them in.

I usually buy my stuff at www.play-asia.com, but the guide is too expensive there... and the shipping at Amazon is highly priced... anyone has a suggestion? It has to be a place that send things to Brazil...

It doesn't even have, say, a Fusion guide? That's kind of weird.

It's got a fusion table. I just missed it. Plus, there's no need to have a guide on how to get specific Persona because the only way you get Persona outside of fusion is through shuffle at the end of battles.

I thought the game had a conversation system, hence the confusion. :(
