I studied German with a method that appears to no longer be available called Méthode 90.
I was called "L'allemand en 90 leçons et en 90 jours"
(http://www.livrenpoche.com/livre/L-allemand-en-90-lecons-et -en-90-jours/126036.html)
I had quite enjoyed it actually... I also had the Russian version.

I'm using the same kind of materials with Italian as I used for learning French: Michel Thomas (but his accent is awful!), The Schaum's Outline of Grammar, and the Mastering Vocabulary series. From there to dual-language books and TV programs with Italian vocal tracks and subtitles.

I think Michel Thomas French is fantastic. The German course is great too, but it leaves
out a lot of the very basic grammar.
I have used Assimil for French, German and Japanese, and I am currently using the Arabic
course for French speakers -it has more material than its English counterpart.
I think that FSI is incredibly dull, but the drills can be useful for speeding up the
processing of a language. I wouldn't use it unless I was already fairly competent in a
language.

I love Pimsleur for Russian. Using LingQ at the moment or it and love that too. Tried
Michel Thomas and it really annoys me.
When I was learning Spanish I used Linguaphone. It was perfect for me at the time as I
was new to language learning so I liked the slow pace.
