The Prima Guides for Sims 1 were packed with information that wasn't easy to find in-game. I consider those guides almost essential -- and fun, too!
The writing style of the Sims 2 Prima Guides is completely different. It is too "chatty and chummy" and meanders around before actually getting to a point. And it doesn't actually seem to make many gaming points! They seem to want to talk about the game, and be cool, rather than actually assist players.
I find the writing and formatting styles so distracting that I can't actually read this guide without my mind wandering off. It is difficult to locate information I need. And it doesn't really tell me much that I can't easily find on my own while playing.
I have the Pets guide, the Nightlife guide, and the basic Sims2 guide. I bought them all at the same time. Otherwise, if I'd gotten one, then others, I wouldn't have gotten others!

Perhaps I should have only given it 4 stars, because I feel that families are incomplete without pets, and probably should have been included with the base game--that said, I'm very happy with the product--I love the create a pet especially. It's easy and fun to use and fairly versitile.

It's worth buying for a number of reasons. Creating a past owned pet is just too cool for words. Getting turned into a wereworlf is quite a bit of fun too. On the negative side, (why I didn't give it five stars) owning a pet can be quite distracting to a Sims career. If you want to build up a sims career, wait to get a pet until a bit later.

The game guides always have information that would be hard or impossible to figure out on your own. I buy one with every expansion.
