Does anyone know a source for Xbox manuals (pdf's/ JPEG's).
I'm so sick of renting games with no manuals !!!

(Xbox.com does post a few- but only Microsoft made games it seems.)

Thanks!

I have friends that get bothered by not having manuals too and I don't understand why it's a big deal?

I don't really want to read some lame crappy story about the game's plot. I guess seeing the controls layout might be helpful but almost everygame lets you see it ingame anyway.

My proven method is you play the game once, mash each button to see if it does anything, reset, and start playin. (the only game it fails for me is football - I cant ever keep the buttons straight anyway! ):p

It's tried and true, the only use I ever have of a manual is if there are combos that you need to use. Other than that there are very few games that don't have in game in game tutorials or that have a display of the controls system lay out.

Most games just have a story line in the manual with some cheesy cartoon like layout.
