When is a FAQ a walkthrough or a cheatguide?
FAQ stands for Frequently Asked Questions, usually explaining key terms or answering repeatedly asked user questions. For computer games, FAQs have often developed into either ‘Play Guides’ or ‘Walkthroughs’ or ‘Cheatguides’, giving detailed information about how to advance quickly in any given game or adopt tricks and aliases to give players an unfair advantage. Many websites, known as cheatsites, offer and allow sharing of this type of information.
