    I'm way too impatient to sit and read a manual. When I open a new game, I want to play it asap.

    [/quote]GL trying that with the long intalling times on consoles. You don't need to read the manuals ASAP. You can take your time and read it whenever you want.

    --------------------

    A lot of gamers supported this BS and ridiculous excuse to not include manuals. The same that always support Devs/publishers greedy ideas so now is too late to change it.

    When I was a little kid I'd rip open the game on the drive home and read the manual to see what was new in madden this year....but they really aren't of use anymore. All the info in a manual is already known before the game is released. I'd rather they
    save their money.

    For most people it isn't the manuals information that they want. It's just the feeling that you're getting a complete premium package and the cool stories and imagery inside the manuals.

    I miss manuals too . Is good to see some few Devs not being lazy or stingy to include manuals in the copy. I hate when i do receive the new crappy an incomplete manual but i do receive a complete catalog to buy from their online stores.

    I'm almost actually inclined tos ay that I don't missmanuals as much these days seeings as how many of today's games don't really need them,despite the in-game tutorials. I never really needed them in the past, honestly, and this
    is gonig back since the Atari 2600; Even during the NES-SnES era, maybe even N64 I'd just pick up the controller and try things without ever really needing the manual. However, my being an owner of at 1 of each from the big 3, I
    will give credit to Nintendo as to how they've implimented the option to access (what appears to be) sort of a digital manual on their 3DS cartridges and Wii U game discs; Basically whenever you need to, hit the home button, and among lots of your
    pause menu options is a manual, select it and from there you can thumb page to page left and rightas well as up and down on each page. So, it kinda could be a good idea to include these but kinda not when you consider the majority of games on XBox One-PlayStation
    4, it'd kinda be replacing game guides to a limit.

    I remember when I was about 10 - 12 and I'd walk in to town, buy a PS2 game that I'd spent weeks, even months, saving for and then catch the bus home so I could sit and read the manual before I could get home and fire it up :p

    I remember one particular ww2 flight sim game I had, Think it may have been Microsoft combat flight sim 2, had a manual that must of been easily I've 150 pages long. It had very in depth history of the conflict and aircraft, plus a great manual for every
    aspect of the gameplay. If it weren't for the gameplay part it could almost pass for a book in the war section of my local bookshop. Half the time these days you wouldn't get that kind of thing in a collectors edition of a game. To me that was part of the
    joy of buying new games.
