The only time I read a manual is for any storyline covered in there. Or if its an FPS game like Halo I'll read the weapon stats and whatnot. But I don't read manuals for technical assistance like for TVs or how to set up a console or whatnot.

Well from my experience Manuals always give basic crap info a hardcore gamer like me already knows. like what HUD is , what minimap does , where your ammo count is and all

And if you come across a complex game? You will eventually have to check.

The point I made is this... Why waste a few mins going online to a forum to ask a basic question that can be quickly looked up on and that can be explained clearer than someone else posting, and from there actually read more and understand more.

Some games have unique systems in perhaps making of items etc, Sacred 2 had an annoying system of stuff, great game but if you didn't read the manual you would get a bit lost in how to craft things.

Oh and Don't forget some tuts on ASM and defeating DMA
