This guide is well written with lots of visual aids and screenshots. First it gives you an overview with the basic skills needed to play the game, then it gives you a list of characters with their special abilities. This is important because you will need certain characters to get to specific items in the game. The next chapter is a walkthrough, so you can read up to a point without spoiling the next level if you feel adventuresome enough to try your skills without the guide. Finally, there is a bonus chapter to make sure you have not overlooked anything. This should really add to your enjoyment of the game.

Star Wars Battlefront: Prima Official Game Guide Review

One of the great mysteries about the game Star Wars Battlefront is why the manual is so incomplete. It provides only a limited subset of the keyboard / mouse commands (PC version), and it further fails to describe in adequate detail the key abilities of the different character types (e.g., pilot, scout, infantry, etc.).
I purchased the "Official Game Guide" in hopes that it might fill in some of this information, and, surprisingly, it didn't. For example, it includes statements to the effect "Use your pilot to heal other characters," but nowhere in the guide, or the manual that came with the game, does it illustrate HOW to do that. (For what it's worth: by pressing "g," you have to choose heal / repair as a pilot's secondary weapon. Then, right-click the mouse to deploy a healing kit.)
The manual does however provide useful maps and a decent description of the strategies either side of a battle might use to their advantage.
In sum, the manual that comes with the game is incomplete, at best, and this "official guide" does not fill in all of the gaps. It is surprising to me that there isn't a good summary of the keyboard / mouse commands, nor gamepad commands for other platforms.
