I personally didn't buy it. But I had a friend with me who decided to get it. Since it didn't have a manual, the employee threw him an extra 10% off.
He won. I lost. No biggie.
Btw, it wasn't about reading the manual. It was about the perceived lack of completeness of a game that was...
I got the coupon yesterday.
I went to the local gamestop and got Ico and the Jak collection. They only had one copy of the Ratchet collection but there was no manual to go with it, so I didn't get it. Was there supposed to be a manual in there?
In any case, I'm pretty happy with my purchases.
