Most modern browsers should be able to display all three without any problems. Also, if the guide was originally written for another console, you'll see a note denoting it (i.e. "PS2" for PlayStation2, "GC" for GameCube, and so on). The next field is the date the file was written and/or submitted to the site, the next field is the author (with a link to that person's Contributor Page), then comes the version number (if it exists), the file's size, and a link to rate the file.
What do the symbols next to some FAQs mean?
•A hollow dot () denotes a FAQ that covers general points of a game (hints and tips, basic strategy), but is not a walkthrough or beginning-to-end guide. •A partially filled dot () denotes a FAQ that contains a partial guide for game, but it does not cover the entire game beginning-to-end. •A filled dot () denotes a FAQ that either covers as much of a game as is possible, or contains a full beginning-to-end walkthrough. •A star () denotes a FAQ that is user recommended.
Why don't you have a FAQ for (insert game here)?
Because nobody's written one yet. Be patient, and someone probably will. Remember, guides on GameFAQs are written for free by thousands of different people; we don't control who writes guides for which games, but we list the most wanted FAQs on the home page of the site.
How do you get FAQs and Guides for games that aren't even out yet?
We don't. 99 times out 100, when you see a FAQ for a game that hasn't been released in your country yet, it's already been released in another one. Many console games are released in one region months (or sometimes years) before others, so it's likely that the FAQ you're reading is based on that region's release.
After I rate a FAQ, what happens to that rating?
All user ratings are stored. The top 2% of overall rated files will receive the Recommended status and be sorted to the top of their |

•"Placeholder" guides: A table of contents, and a promise of more information to come. As you might imagine, this would only serve to infuriate people who clicked on your guide. •Online cheating guides: Cheating in online games is never a good thing, and game companies are cracking down on this behavior right and left. Even guides that are intended to help users not to get scammed or cheated in a game generally just give more ideas to those that would do those sorts of things. •Checklists: Checklists of items, quests, or similar things that provide no actual gameplay information are generally just based off of others' work and provide no actual help or information. •Works of fiction: Fan fiction, joke FAQs, and fan art do have their place on the Internet, but not here. GameFAQs is primarily concerned with providing solid factual information about games. •Game Manuals: Game manuals are protected by copyright, and normally cannot be legally distributed online. The exception to this rule are translations of foreign-language (specifically Japanese) manuals for import gamers, which are very useful to the import gamer and have met with no known objections from copyright holders so far. •Non-Text Formats: Not everyone in the world owns a copy of Excel or Word, so not everyone can read files submitted. HTML guides open up a can of worms with bad markup, scripting exploits, and browser incompatibilities. Executables can contain viruses or trojan horses. GameFAQs generally accepts plain text only, with a very few exceptions (image files, ZIP

the earth" would live as long as democracy itself. For the complete text of the speech, see Gettysburg Address. The victories at Gettysburg and Vicksburg had seemed to promise an early peace. But the war went on. In March 1864, Lincoln put Grant in command of all the Union armies. The Army of the Potomac started to march toward Richmond two months later. At the same time, General William T. Sherman began his famous march from Tennessee to Atlanta, and then to the sea. Print "The Gettysburg Address" subsection
Election of 1864. Grant met skillful resistance in the South, and his troops suffered thousands of casualties. Many people called him “the butcher” and condemned Lincoln for supporting him. In 1864, Lincoln skillfully turned back efforts by some fellow Republicans to replace him in the White House. Republicans and War Democrats—Democrats who supported Lincoln’s military policies—formed the Union Party. In June that year, the party nominated Lincoln for president. It selected former Senator Andrew Johnson of Tennessee, a leading War Democrat, for vice president. The Democrats chose the former General George B. McClellan as their candidate for president, and Representative George H. Pendleton of Ohio for vice president. Lincoln became less popular as the summer wore on. Late in August, he confessed privately that "it seems exceedingly probable that this administration will not be reelected." Then the military trend changed. Rear Admiral David G. Farragut had won the Battle of Mobile Bay on August 5, and Sherman's troops captured Atlanta on September 2. A series of Union victories cleared Confederate forces from the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. In a famous duel off the coast of France, the U.S.S. Kearsarge sank the Confederate cruiser Alabama, which had preyed on Union merchant ships. Many discouraged Northerners took heart again.
Tables Lincoln's second election
Electoral College vote in 1864
The Union victories helped Lincoln win reelection. He defeated McClellan by an electoral vote of 212 to 21. He won the popular vote by more than 400,000 votes.
Print "Election of 1864" subsection
Picture Lincoln's second inaugural address Second inauguration. The end of the war was clearly in sight when Lincoln took the oath of office a second time, on March 4, 1865. Grant had besieged Lee's weary troops at Petersburg, Virginia. The Southern armies were wasting away in Grant's bulldog grip. Sherman left a wide track of destruction as he marched through Georgia and the Carolinas.
As a result, Lincoln could concentrate on reuniting the nation. In his second inaugural address, he explained that the Civil War had to be fought to abolish slavery. It was God's will, he declared, that the North and South together pay the price for slavery. He urged the people to maintain their faith in God's goodness and justice even if the war should continue "until all the wealth piled by the bondsman's two hundred and fifty years of unrequited toil shall be sunk, and until every drop of blood drawn with the lash shall be paid by another drawn with the sword. ..." He closed with a moving plea for “malice toward none” and “charity for all,” North and South alike.
Picture Late portrait of Abraham Lincoln Photographs taken of Lincoln around the time of his second inauguration show the effect of four years of war. His face had become gaunt and deeply lined. He slept little during crises in the fighting, and his eyes were ringed with black. Lincoln ate his meals irregularly, and he had almost no relaxation.
In spite of his exhaustion, Lincoln continued to see widows and soldiers who called at the White House. His delight in rough humor never deserted him. More than once, he shocked members of his Cabinet by telling stories or reading to them from such humorists as Artemus Ward and Orpheus C. Kerr. Even so, the strain of melancholy that had first appeared in him as a young man deepened. Lincoln came to have a quiet confidence in his own judgment as he met the trials of war. Still, he remained a man of genuine humility. The war brought out his best qualities, as he rose to each new challenge. Lincoln was a master politician, and he timed his actions to the people’s moods. He led by persuasion. Horace Greeley said: “He slowly won his way to eminence and fame by doing the work that lay next to him—doing it with all his growing might—doing it as well as he could, and learning by his failure, when failure was encountered, how to do it better." Print "Second inauguration" subsection
End of the war. On April 9, 1865, Lee surrendered to Grant at Appomattox Court House in Virginia. Under authority from Lincoln, Grant extended generous terms to Lee and his army. A great wave of joy swept the North when the fighting ended. A few days before, Lincoln had quietly entered Richmond, accompanied by his son Tad. There, he was greeted as a savior by the city’s once-enslaved African Americans. On the night of April 11, before a crowd that serenaded him, Lincoln spoke soberly of the future. Louisiana had applied for readmission to the Union under Lincoln's plan of reconstruction. Many Northerners wanted to impose harsher terms on the state. Some complained that blacks would not receive the right to vote under Louisiana's new government. "I would myself prefer," said Lincoln, "that it [the vote] were now conferred on the very intelligent, and on those who serve our cause as soldiers." The speech marked the first time an American president had spoken of extending the vote to blacks. An outraged member of the audience that night, infuriated by Lincoln’s speech, vowed to kill him. That man was John Wilkes Booth. Many people insisted that Lincoln decide if "the seceded states, so called, are in the Union or out of it." No matter, said the president in his last public address on April 11, 1865: "Finding themselves safely at home, it would be utterly immaterial whether they had ever been abroad." Lincoln admitted that the new government of Louisiana was imperfect. But, he asked, "Will it be wiser to take it as it is and help improve it, or to reject and disperse it?" Print "End of the war" subsection
Assassination. On the evening of April 14, 1865, Lincoln attended a performance of the comedy Our American Cousin at Ford's Theatre in Washington. At 10:22 p.m., a shot rang through the crowded house. Booth, one of the best-known actors of the day, had shot the president in the head from the rear of the presidential box. In leaping to the stage, Booth caught his spur in a flag draped in front of the box. He fell and broke his leg. But he limped across the stage brandishing a dagger and crying: "Sic semper tyrannis" (Thus always to tyrants), the motto of Virginia.
Picture President's box at Ford's Theatre Lincoln was carried unconscious to a boarding house across the street. Lincoln's family and a number of high government officials surrounded him. Lincoln died at 7:22 a.m. on April 15.
As president, Lincoln had been bitterly criticized. After his death, however, even his enemies praised his kindly spirit and selflessness. Millions of people had called him “Father Abraham.” They grieved as they would have grieved at the loss of a father. The train carrying Lincoln’s body started north from Washington, to Baltimore, before heading west. Mourners lined the tracks as it moved across the country. Thousands wept as they looked upon him for the last time. On May 4, Lincoln was buried in Oak Ridge Cemetery in Springfield, Illinois. The monument over his grave is a place of pilgrimage, as are other spots that his life had touched in Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois, and, above all, Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. Print "Assassination" subsection
The trial of the conspirators. After shooting Lincoln, Booth fled to Maryland on horseback. A friend, David E. Herold, a former druggist's clerk, joined Booth there and helped him escape to Virginia. On April 26, 1865, federal troops searching for Booth trapped the two men in a barn near Port Royal, Virginia. Herold surrendered, but Booth was shot and killed. Several people were believed to have been involved with Booth in both Lincoln's assassination and a plot to kill other government officials. Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton ordered agents of his department to arrest them. Besides Herold, the accused conspirators included George Atzerodt, a carriage maker, for planning the murder of Vice President Andrew Johnson; Lewis Paine, a former Confederate soldier, for attempting to kill Secretary of State Seward; and Mary E. Surratt, the owner of a Washington boarding house, for helping the plotters. Booth and the others supposedly planned the crimes in Surratt’s home. The Department of War also accused Samuel Arnold and Michael O'Laughlin, boyhood friends of Booth's, of helping him plan the crimes. Samuel A. Mudd, a Maryland physician who had set Booth's broken leg after the assassination of Lincoln, was charged with aiding the plotters. Edward Spangler, a stagehand at Ford's Theatre, was charged with helping Booth escape. Some people accused Confederate President Jefferson Davis and his secret service of approving and funding the plot, but the charges were never proved. A nine-man military commission tried the accused conspirators in Washington. The trial began on May 10, 1865, and lasted until June 30. The commission convicted all eight defendants and sentenced Atzerodt, Herold, Paine, and Surratt to death. They were hanged on July 7. Arnold, Mudd, and O'Laughlin received sentences of life imprisonment, and Spangler received a six-year sentence. O'Laughlin died in prison of yellow fever in 1867. President Johnson pardoned Arnold, Mudd, and Spangler in 1869. Print "The trial of the conspirators" subsection
Presidential library. The library portion of the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum opened in Springfield, Illinois, in 2004. The library serves as a center for research and study about Lincoln. The museum, which opened in 2005, offers interactive exhibits and dramatic presentations about Lincoln's life and times.
