It is a great game for one person to play alone or several.
 Too many little mistakes to make it a good book January 20, 2006

We have been using this book while playing the game and have found that it is very frustrating. Things are mislabled, in the wrong place, and there is not enough information on some of the characters. We found better information looking on the internet. Also it does not tell you that you can only get some of the extra characters, like Cable and others, in the PSP version of the game. I would not recommend this book to people buying the game.

As usual, I bought this book after I completed X-Men Legends II, and actually used it to play through the game another time. To a certain extent, I'd say that it's a pretty handy guide for anyone who needs a step-by-step walkthrough of the game, even though it does have its fair share of errors and omissions.
The maps in this book, like those in the first book, are particularly useful. Numbers are allocated on the maps, and a table is always found beside a map to identify what you can find at these locations, be it a disc, a sketch book, a comic, a homing beacon or even a boss fight. This essentially makes the text redundant, as a player can simply look at the map, check the incidents from the table, and proceed without having to read a whole lot of text to proceed.
The characters building section of the book is also adequately written to provide the reader a general idea of how to level up your favorite characters. Players who're interested in maximising the potential of these characters should find the tips here pretty useful.
The book also has a mandatory "trivia game" section that has with all the answers for the Q&A mini-game found in every act of the game. There're a couple of errors here though, so you may be frustrated by the unintentional sabotage that causes you not to get 100% correct on the questions.
All in all, this is an above average guide that is nicely structured, well presented and informative. Recommended if you really need the assistance.
