I miss manuals, same as song text booklets and background info with lps and cds. Same with movies, laser discs had some beautiful artwork with the movies. Blu-ray could really use that since it takes a long time to actually start the movie...
Most games have day 1 patches, install times, perfect time to check out the manual. Sure you can usually start playing after a few minutes without the patch, but there is that nagging feeling that maybe it will run better if you wait for the full install and patching to be done.
Those old pc boxes were the best. No need for a special edition, cloth map, aged paper manual, tarrot cards or other extras standard included. Concept art still looks better in printed form than viewed on a tv screen.
