For the most part, unless I am truly stuck, I don't use a walkthrough. On the first playthrough anyways. If I ever wanted to do a Master Game, I'd have a GameFAQs page right next to me and read it through. But Master games only come after the first playthrough anyway (at least for me) so there aren't any surprises, so to speak.

Good god, this thread makes me feel old.
In any case, even 3 years later, my position really hasn't changed, unlike some others. I still prefer to slug it through a game figuring out things myself. The thing is I usually play RPG (usually JRPGs) which are already pretty linear. Getting from the beginning to the end is usually relatively straightforward and therefore, wouldn't really require the use of a walkthrough whilst playing.
When I go through a game the second time, however, I'm very likely to be following a guide just to get the most out of the game. The only reason this isn't the first time through is because I don't like reading about spoilers, and there's a sense of achievement that I get when I figure something out on my own.
But really, RPGs are the only types of games this applies to. I'm not into fighting games really, so I wouldn't need to look up movelists, not to mention most of the new ones give you the moveslist in the game. Every other genre, I can't imagine why anyone would need a guide.
There's nowhere I can't reach.
