well, i wanna know about it.... are you guys completed the games all by yourself? like Final Fantasy or anything else.... or if your friends have help you to beat some of the session? well, i'm probably is completed the games all by myself....

Strange thing someone wants to know ><
Well, I've finished every game by myself

I completed the main storyline in ffx-2 in four days. I had to use a strategy guide to get the secret ending. I still have to get the extra scene between Tidus and Yuna, but my ps2 broke.

I always complete games myself. I dont like to get help from other ppl.

I always finish mine by myself. If anything, I sometimes help friends who don't play games as much finish theirs. I don't do it for them, but I help them get past places where they are stuck and can't get past wherever they are at no matter what they do. I like to see them make it to the end, but I want them to feel like they get the credit for it.

I finish games by myself. Then I finish them again, making sure to get everything ... THEN I'll look on the net for cool things I may or may not have missed.

I also pass all the games i buy by myself. I dont like using strategy guides. i only would use them after i already passed the game on my on and want to get everything in the game.

Most games I complete them without help. There was a period of time when I was slightly younger and I wanted to get all the stuff in one shot n used faqs/guides. But, somehow doing tat seemed to make the game feel boring.

Since then, used this formula for most my RPGs (worked for me at least):
- First play - Search n try to get all stuff myself without help (usually led to 80 -100 hrs...)
- second play - check walkthru n if many fun stuff haven found or done, go and play again

Yhe first time I always beat it by myself, then I might get a walktrough for those few extra gimicks I missed.

I always finish games on my own and without any guides (unless I absolutely cannot pass through certain stages).

I'd rather play games alone, if I get stuck I'll look in a walkthrough on GameFAQs or try to find my own way out of the situation. I don't want anyone else playing my games for me.

But when I was a kid I'd let some of the bigger kids in the arcade beat bosses for me sometimes, but I was like 5 back then

Sometimes I use guides ONLY for Horror or Thriller games
(fatal frame series, anyone...)
I... just don't want to die young because of heart attack, that's all

Man don't worry using guides is perfectly fine, buying them on the other hand is dumb unless you are a collector GameFAQs has everything you need for free.

And IMO the guides on GameFAQs are much better and much more in-depth than most official guides.

Depends on the games, most games i play myselft or sometimes i get together with some friends and we play games like halo 2 and burnout revenge, but i play all other games like ff's and others rpg's by myself. Sometimes its fun to play a game with friends nothing beats the classic split screen action or just lagthing at how u can't get a gold in burnout and keep trying takeing turns.

Nope... Usually I use the guides on GameFAQs as well...

I play multiplayer games with other players of course. But as far as completing a game, I never:

- Have other human help
- Use Cheat codes
- Use Guides

I always complete a game by myself without aid.

i prefer to play a game by myself because if somebody else plays it for me i always get the feeling that i would miss something important.

I always complete a game by myself. After completion, i sometimes use FAQ's to see if there was anything i've missed.

hum... Most of time I finished the game by myself, I kill the final boss (when there is one), and I come again at my last savepoint. After that, I watch on the net if I missed some things, and I do the quests. If I can't do because I'm too far, I just begin a second time the game

If you get helped, then you're a loser.

Maybe that's why i even level up by myself in MMORPGs and whatnot.

Using FAQs are like cheating to me, and I dun like it.

I usually beat games all by myself. Unless if I get stuck then I look at a waklthrough.. :3

Same here...

I usually beat the game myself, then use a guide to see what I may have missed. There have been a few rare times that I used a guide to beat certain games though.

Dude no, using guides is nothing like cheating. You still have to do things yourself and the guide is there just to point you in the right direction.
For example if you want to get all 108 stars in a Suikoden game it's good to use a Guide cause some of the characters can be missed and just for that your whole game can get messed up and I strongly doubt you'll have the time to replay a Suikoden game cause they are huge and long.

Well it depends on the game but still guides are nothing like cheating.
