To revive this thread a bit:
I miss actual, text-form walkthroughs. I really do.
Instead, we get stupid wikis (which often do little else but summarize what you already know from the in-game descriptions ). Or videos, videos, videos.
Seriously, if I'm stuck in a game, because of some specific riddle/quest/problem, I'm not interested to stop playing for an hour to watch someone shuffle through miles and miles of in-game landscape, in the minimum speed possible. Call it a gameplay video, call it a let's play, but don't fucking call it a walkthrough, it's messing with my google searches!
(I know, I'm stretching the "modern" term here )
