[glow=navy,2,300]Yeah, the FAQ's are awsome on there. They might not be as good as a Player's Guide, but since I found the site I haven't bought a players guide period.[/glow] That's an interesting point... That would be considered stealing money from the companies (or whoever makes the player's guides), right?

That's an interesting point... That would be considered stealing money from the companies (or whoever makes the player's guides), right? Well the player guides aren't really good... a lot of them are crap posted out like a month after testing the game because they want it on the market as soon as possible. Players usually find out all the secrets and more within a year by themselves.... Some guides are very useful though, and it does hjelp the Official Guides that a lot of guides from players are complete crap, it takes a while of searching to get the good ones. EDIT: after more thinking here's more flames I'd like to add to shitty players guides: I don't understand why you all think their guides are so great, a LOT of them are filled with misinformation, stuff stolen from other guides (i've found whole pages of the EXACT SAME WORDS in the EXACT SAME FONT as other guides... and the neither was sited in the other for sources...), and just crap they made up, and a bunch are mostly just a players opinions of a game (like, This is the best weapon because I like it, or... This is the best character because I use it obviously). DISCLAIMER: In case you still haven't seen, I do think that some of the guides on GameFAQS rock, some are so awesome ;D, I thank from the bottom of my heart all the people who bother to write good, informative FAQs and Guides, I've been helped tremendously on a few games by them. another disclaimer: I do NOT think ALL official guides are complete bullshit, just a lot of them. Some of them, like the ones on GameFAQs are EXTREMELY useful, and well-done. So all in all, you get bad ones, you get good ones ;D, just takes time to find the good ones, weed out the bad ones... you'd think gameFAQs would screen the guides more... Yet another edit: Duran, AWESOME SIG, can't believe they cancelled Family Guy... that's the best show since the simpsons!! and the simpsons isn't even that great anymore... (although they should NOT be cancelled, much better than the other crappy so-called comedies that the networks like to air)

How is that in any way stealing money from the companies? Unless the FAQs were like word for word from the guides. Most of the FAQs I've seen were written by the author so it's theirs, not the companies'.

I go to GameFAQs every day. I very rarely find a topic worth posting in though. And I'm a level 33 user with 800 some karma points. I should have well over a thousand by now but I didn't post much before the karma system was created.

Yeah, I post there, but I don't like the spammers and the "Read a FAQ" idiots. But the FAQs save tons of money, strategy guides cost a lot more than they're worth.
