I actually used the manual for Dragon Age 2... For games, the online / electronic manual (like with Witcher that I bought online) is a bit of 'n mission if you have to alt-tab the whole time to look something up. I hope they at least reduce the prices of new games in the future since we'll be getting less.
wont miss the manuals and will save several tree's by not needing to print the manuals. I think digital is the way to go and in game tutorials should be in every game as they are much easier to go through than reading a manual.
Bring back the old gaming manuals with the 10 odd pages about the back story of the game!
