I use GameFAQs and GameSpot guides quite a bit. And between the two, I can
usually get thru most of the games out there. And while I haven't used a
lot of the Prima/Brady guides, of the few that I have picked up they seem to
be very sparse when it comes to covering the game.
Plus, the GameFAQ site usuallys has a couple of different guides to view.
The only problem is that they're most written using just regular text.
Sometimes it's a little hard to figure out where in the game you are (10
paces from the red wall, turn right and go 5 paces, and jump on a ledge,
.....). Whereas GameSpot was doing a couple of guides in HTML that
included pictures to go along with the writeups.
