Are old Manhattan GMAT study guides no longer useful?

I am currently using the Manhattan GMAT 2007 study guides (8 or so I believe) to prepare for the GMAT in addition to the OG 11th edition and the supplemental verbal/quantitative. I also just bought the 12th edition and supplemental verbal/quant for additional practice.

So my question is, is there any reason why this would not give me sufficient knowledge of the required material? Has anything been added/changed to the GMAT since that time?

Separately, do the newer Manhattan GMAT books present the material in a different, clearer manner?

Thanks in advance.

I haven't gone through all of both editions but I have noticed that the new edition SC book has about 100 more pages.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
