[font=Times New Roman][size=3]I use walkthroughs if I can't find secret items on a specific game or can't complete a list of items. Usually i use walkthroughs on RPGs when i already finished the game.

I usually try to figure out whatever it is that has me stuck...if it takes me forever and a day...then I might find a walkthrough for the particular section of the game...and leave it at that...

"When the going gets tough the tough use walkthroughs" (usually after about the 30th time trying something and can't get it) or just to complete something after the game is already done (ie: zelda mini toy game or to get that final heart piece)

i use then a lot since i play so many games in japanese. other than that ill only use them to find all the items in a particularly large area in an rpg, just to avoid all the tedious random battles while searching everywhere for them

The only time I personally use a walkthrough is when I have beaten the game and I am going through again to look for things I may have missed the first time through.The one exception to this was in Final Fantasy III, I was stuck in a dungeon and couldn't for the life of me figure out how to get out, so I had to go to the walkthrough >.<

Usually i don't use any walkthrough, but if i'm stuck i rather ask my friend than use any walkthrough. I use walthrough if i curious about the storyline that's all :waaa:For some my opinion if u don't try game without walkthrough it's more fun than when u use a walkthrough... <3
