Has anyone else bought this specific game as mine didn't come with an Instruction manual and I'm wondering if it is supposed to......

I'm getting a bit miffed as its one of the things which should come with all games....

A box, a manual and the game disc....but now producers want to get all cheapy and give PDF instruction manual files to read (how in the hell am I supposed to read a PDF while the game is fully running I don't know!). So I'll have to print it out costing me money!

Sorry its just one of my pet peeves.....especially with RTS games for which I find you need a manual to understand all the commands, units, hotkeys etc etc

Re-release games hardly ever have a paper manual these days - at least the in game tutorial for AOEII is pretty good.

I thought that might have been the case....still I think that they should....
