Re: No Manual

In Response To: No Manual (Phoenix_9286) : Am I seriously the only one here upset there's literally no manual to be : found anywhere? Be it in the box (the contents of which are quite : literally pathetic, they might as well have just used a paper sleeve) or : online? You're not. Having to learn things through bad experiences sucks. : For ten years, every Halo game, before I've even put the game in the tray, : I've spent upwards of 30 minutes leafing through a reading the manual. The : gorgeous full color manual. I learned about the weapons, the characters, : the enemies, the plot. I learned about the game modes and got brief : overviews. But more importantly, I got a piece of reference material I : could look back on any time I wanted, anywhere I wanted. Me, not 30 minutes, but I agree with everything else. Any manuals that are done aren't even in color anymore. My manual for Sonic Generations is one page(front to back) with a URL of an invalid link to download a "real" manual there. Sad. : I'm really looking forward to a year from now when a full length, full color, : manual becomes a bullet point on the backside of limited editions. Sure : feels like that's where we're heading. That's because we've been there. It's been that way for years now. Budget cuts. Cutting corners. Paper cases, black and white bookmarks, flimsy easily ripped posters. It's America's plummeting economy.
