    I'm the same way, Erica. I hate eBooks and reading long stuff on computer screens too. I miss the days of full-color, informative manuals that have a lot of detail and artwork. The 4-page, black-and-white garbage that comes with Activision or EA games was bad enough, but now that we're going fully digital with manuals it's even worse.

    The old Donkey Kong Country instruction manuals were awesome. Cranky Kong would insult you or the game on every page.

    Those days are gone.

    I prefer the digital distribution, I love downloading games through Steam.
    The convenience is great, I don't have to get off my fat butt to actually get a game, I can just download it! :D

    This, entirely. I also like to simply have the packaging of the game; it's fun to look at.
