Posted: Mon, 27. Nov 06, 14:22
The purpose of this sticky is to list the links to various game guides that have been written by the community. If you have a new link to add or find a dead link please report it in this thread (don't PM me direct). Note that guides are only for the latest versions of the X games.
Just so everyone is aware. There is a review process by the moderators for each proposed new link.

That is not to say it will never be included. We will always re-review if you've added new content.
Sometimes the process can take a bit of time so please give it a week before chasing.
Note that the date for story guides is when the link was added, not when new episodes are added.
