@ AlanC9, Sorry you think it is nonsense. We can agree to disagree.

Besides, my point was more about the overall financial gain for game developers with the current setup. Not the quality or content of manuals vs. strategy guides. I think strategy guides are worth the money in general. Still prefer to have a decent manual included with the game.

People actually read the manuals. Played games my whole life and i don't think i ever read the manuals i usually just threw it aside.

^well just cuz thats what you usually do doesnt mean others do the same. And judging from the very large amount of posts in this very topic its clear a lot of people still love manuals and miss them very much.

I actually fully support BioWare's actions with regards to the manuals, and the holstering decision also makes sense (holstering your weapons in the middle of a combat zone is kind of stupid...)

No, I mean holstering weapons in a combat zone, period. If you can't holster in hub worlds, then it's a problem (like on Tuchanka, in the area where Wrex is).

Running with your arm streched out when the immediate area has no hostiles  is a waste of energy

I don't think that's what he means (Could be, but I don't think so). If you're on a battlefield, even if it looks like everyone is dead it's not necessarily safe to lower your guard and holster your weapon. Shepard doesn't know whats around the next corner...

He really should continually be scanning for hostiles, though, if he's in a war zone.

Wait. There's no holstering?

...wtf?

I haven't been paying attention to the in/not in status of this feature, because I figured it was, you know, a given.

Nope. And you can blame the PS3 version for it.

Why is it the ps3 versions fault? ME2 on ps3 had holstering, if you read the manual you would know that.. o wait.

^LMAO!!! "oh wait..."  lol  that was good.

Well to be fair, most games are disposable. Most people don't own copies of all the movies they watch. It's also fair to say that as technology changes, older games just won't play on the new computers without some work. So people saying they want to keep the game for 10-20 years down the road will likely have to purchase them again as they get ported to iOS or whatever the new version of Windows requires. In this case, it probably makes more sense to have the manuals on-line because that can be ported along with the game. Eventually I see an end to hard copies of games as things get more digital and the Internet becomes more ubiquitous.

It's very hard to take a person's complaint about manuals seriously when he (a) likes to make fun of other people with such dismissive posts and ( when you can't form a proper sentence--capitalize the first letter of a sentence.

why else would there be a freakin' Manual tab in the game? God bioware, what the hell happened to you?this is just trash. I happen to love manuals, especially in my RPG's.

You tree killer......!!!!!!!! Dude, I am not sure if this is a serious thread, but EA made it pretty clear with the ME2 PS3 edition that manuals are included, just not in paper form. At first, I was bummed, cause I love my paper manuals when on my 'MAN THRONE' as it were, but I am over it.

Exactly. I want my manual IN MY HANDS that I can FLIP THROUGH.

To make things worse, no codex apparently (atleast in demo).

[xSolclaim]

There is definitely a codex btw. there is the codex entries leaked already, (i didn't listen to them ) furthermore, I fail to see the problem with a digital manual, honestly i've been reading the thread and I still don't get it. holstering, yeah ill miss it and be frustrated the first 5 or so times i try and nothing happens. but then ill move on, because you know, oh well, i cant drop my guard in hostile territory, what is this world coming to, or not. As far as game companies getting cheap, in regards to the entertainment industry, a 70$ game, that lasts for 50-200 hours (replay value) and up to 500+ hours if you're really stuck in multiplayer. (or something like that.) thats what between $1.10 - 0.10c an hour, for quality, high production value entertainment, Yeah, what a big ripoff, right?

[Scorpion1O1]

I think BSN is just so bored that we'll pick anything to **** about. ANYTHING

I'm glad there is no manual. waste of trees. Digital is more sustainable.

Bioware is going green.
