One title:
Silent Hill
I'm not sure if you're aware of the bat*censored.2.0* insane logic and reasoning that is required to get even remotely far in a few of these titles, but it required large amounts of backtracking, looking for things in an environment that, at the time, sort of meshed together in a rusty orange-red indistinguishable piece of level design, and yes, being able to remember that tiny janitor's closet door back at the beginning of the stage so you can grab the bleach from the room in order to mix it with God-knows-what-else in a bucket you found under a urinal in the faculty restrooms so you can kill the demon bees blocking your path onward to a giant
*censored.8.1* worm.. Granted, some of that is incorrect, but you get my point. Toss in clunky controls, a not-so-stellar camera, and you have the ragefest of a lifetime.
So, what do you do? You go online to find a guide.
And since you're doing exactly what is required to finish the game or at least clear the part you're stuck on, I ask,
what's the difference? The remove the effort of searching on GameFAQs and actually doing it to make your life easier.
Yes, it will be misused, but should that really affect you?
More people will beat the game and see the ending!
It's YouTube.
All in all, if you don't like it, don't use it.
