Pretty much. It isn't ideal, but it is indeed better than others in its genre.

I like simplicity in my controls. A hundred key combinations is not necessary and becomes a headache to memorize. I rather my challenge be based entirely on the environment and how I react with the basic tools at my disposal.

That would be wrong... Super Star Wars was made officially by LucasArts a year prior.

EDIT: The thoughts of the X-Wing strategy guide I was reading in the first video has spurred on a new set of questions. I don't plan to bother with that much anymore, since I feel seeing the game will be enough X-Wing for me. But it has led to an interesting question.

There are at least two "Authorized" Quake Strategy Guides out there. The Unauthorized is easy enough to dismiss, but Authorized begs the question of what that word in particular means. Is it something to splash on the cover to draw people to one in particular? Basically, what I am asking, is how official the content in such guides should be treated? We obviously treat the manual as canon, but where does an "authorized" strategy guide fall in the grand scheme? Do we accept the information? Feel it isn't from id and thus isn't the same?

I am not sure what information can be provided. Neither exists as a PDF, so they would need to be purchased and examined, which I am of course crazy enough to do. It is just a matter of knowing if it is even worth the effort or what authorized even means. Do we treat these as fan works or official sources, especially when not from id? What does authorized mean?
