Well, I completed MGS on the day of release (I received it one day early). I was so impressed, I immediately went out to buy a guide to find out about secrets, and to help with some perfect play throughs at a later date. Unsurprisingly, there were tons of secrets I'd have never found out without the guide, so I'm happy with my purchase.
Now, I could have waited for the internet to catch up. Or I could hav just played the game until I was sick of it looking for secrets, but I didn't want to. Thus: game guide = good thing.
That said, I don't normally buy guides at all. I find them a waste of money when I can normally just get all the stuff off the net; but, MGS4 was a special case.
