It depends on the person, and it depends on the game, and it also depends on how far you are into the game.

In a game with extreme diffuculty, and a huge lack of instructions from the manual... Strategy guides can make the game much more fun. For me, games that fall into this category would be Perfect Dark and Goldeneye. There are also a whole host of other games I had to access online sources or get some type of help for.

I've never came accross a game where the strategy guide acctually hurt the game's fun factor... but then again, I only use guides when I absolutly need them.

GTA3 is pretty easy if you ask me... but there were some points in which I had to go to gameFAQs.com to get a little help. Chances are a guide won't be needed for Vice City.
