    Who reads the manual before playing a video game?

    Do you read the manual or just jump right into the game learning as you go?
    Coarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
    not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
    and drag down the features of age,
    no folds or creases from unkempt wear
    eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
    no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
    but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012

    BigDyl doesn't read the manual, he stares it down until it gets the information he wants.
    If sense were common, everyone would have it.

    I play with my kids sometimes. I suck! I get mad and look at the instructions after getting beat in Backyard Baseball 113-4.

    ...and I still suck.

    i play w my kids. usually one of us starts playing n then whoever is reading the manuel gives pointers. i never try cheats or walkthroughs till i'm impossibly stuck and take great pride in making games do things they aren't supposed to like taking Lara thru a piece of the game backwards where no enemies are triggered or making jumps she shouldn't be able to make.

    Don't look back ~ You're not going that way!
