Two of my best internet buddies recently set up a site called PlayItHardcore (http://www.playithardcore.com/pihwiki/index.php?title=Main_Page). We're currently constructing a wiki-style site that offers guides on how to beat a game without ever relying on saving and reloading. Saves are only for when you stop playing and have to go do something in the real world!
I myself am going to be heavily involved in making the site work (I am planning on doing Call of Duty and Half-Life 2 here soon, and I also made the difficulty ratings images) and offer you guys to go take a look and participate. So far, we've really only got a couple snippets of soulmata's hardcore Morrowind run, as well as an entire youtube'd walkthrough of his Deus Ex 2 massacre playthrough (the videos are still being uploaded, but I've watched up through Lower Seattle and it's hilarious), and a FallOut 2 guide.
We realize this is going to take a lot of work for what we plan to be doing. That's one reason I'm saying, come give us a hand! Any game is welcome, as well, regardless of system. I will likely be doing some runs of the 3 SNES Megaman X games, so it doesn't have to be an epic long game like, say, Baldur's Gate 2. The rating system wasn't invented purely so everything would be a 5 or above, after all.

Isn't the idea of a guide/walkthrough that guides someone entirely through "hardcore" gaming a complete and utter oxymoron?

There's only so much someone can tell you about what you'll face. The rest is up to you.
Besides, they aren't "guides" so much as maximum lol blogs regarding a hardcore playthrough. If you go watch soulmata's Deus Ex 2 movies (http://youtube.com/profile_videos?user=playithardcore), and don't laugh, then maybe you're not the gaming type.
