Do you read the instruction manuals?

Anybody here read the manuals? or is it a male thing
Uh, I flick through them to see if there is any character bios or story line but that's about it. Half the games I get I haven't moved the manuals from their original position.

I flick through them when i originally buy them, like on the way home or something, just so i get a grasp of the controls theninever look at them again
Never read them.Never ever ever.
I take them to the toilet on the day I buy the game, that gives me enough time to read through it.
Do you mean game manuals or instruction manuals? It sounds like instruction manuals but ^^ are talking bout game manuals????

hes talking about 1. the manuals that come with your xbox game i.e. the one in the case. or 2. the manuals that are made usually by a third party. usually called "strategy guides". go to your local eb. they are made for all the popular games
Ah right I thought he just meant games, I never read instructions for anything, I just wing it and if that doesn't work I ... uh.... hit it I guess.
Lol, so much confusion over nothing. He's talking about game manuals that come in the case. Not strategy guides, because he would have asked "do you buy instruction manuals" if that was the case.
i never could be bothered
If a game has a coloured manual, most of the time it's a great game to buy.


If it's Black and white, I avoid it

Cept MW2, but that had the worst manual I've ever seen!


Anyway, I read them if I'm bored on the way home getting them

Hell no. I am a man, I need no instructions.
With games I never read them unless there's some background info on the game's characters or story. So in essence I just skim through it.

But for some instruction manuals I real the whole book at least once particularly with music equipment. There are often small things that make a huge difference to the playability later on.

This is basically what I was about to post.

Gone are the days of cool little, information packed, booklets.
I might read them on the toilet if there is absolutely nothing else to read.
If I go out and buy a game at lunch i'll sit at work and have a flick through. Yes, on the toilet too!
only if i suck at the game or cant do stuff on it.

like on frontlines: fuel of war.

i was used to call of duty so i looked at the manual

What happens when you go to trade it in and they know its been "tagged"
makes note not to trade games with Kero ,Tano or stevros
Yeah I just flick through them on the way home

HAHA, sometimes the manuals have a notes section in the back which can be doubled as toilet paper if you’re in a bind.
