GameFAQs
Strategy guide website
GameFAQs is a website hosting user-submitted video game guides, walkthroughs, and FAQs.
Founded in 1995, it became a central resource for gamers seeking help with difficult levels, hidden items, or obscure mechanics.
The site also features message boards where users discuss games and vote in character popularity contests.
I found a walkthrough on GameFAQs.
