The game manuals SUCK!

Has anyone else noticed how horrible the game manuals are? They dont tell you ANY details of the game.

I saw the Kameo one and it looked pretty colorful and detailed. The whole point is to play the game, not read the manuals.

guys

Guys, here's the thing though. I agree with you. I don't use the manuals for game play.

However there are "icons" in the games (like on Tiger Woods, and NFS for example) that are NOT explained in the game or in the manual. So basically you are left to sort of just assume what they mean.

i think they have notes in the back. the NFSMW manual is noticably awful. its like 4 pages. the PDZ manual is actually pretty good though. i think the MS games have better manuals: Kameo, PDZ, PGR3

AAA titles always do. Especially RARE titles as they always have colourful in depth manuals even dating back to Banjo and Conker's BFD.
