Title: I need scans of instruction manuals
Post by: demi on March 07, 2007, 08:45:19 PM
I need scans of the CREDITS section for recent games. North American developed games, preferably.

PC, X360, PSP, etc etc etc

Can anyone help me out? I posted this on OA to not much avail, so let's see what I can do with this board.

Sonic won't help, that is a Jappy game. Resistance would be helpful.

RB6 vegas doesn't have any credits.  the next most recent american game I have is double agent, I could open that up, if you want?

How would it not have Credits? That's weird. Ok, if you have Double Agent see if that has Credits. Wasn't Double Agent done by Ubi Shanghai though?

Hey Demi, I can scan Earache Extreme Metal Racing and NFL Street 3 for you if you want. They're the only ones I have handy at work.
Title: Re: I need scans of instruction manuals

lol, you have Earache? I think that is a Euro game. NFL Street 3 would be nice, that was done by EA Tiburon.


Just so we're clear and people don't get confused:

I need the CREDITS, if they are available. I don't need the entire manual.

North American games PREFERRED, leaning towards REQUIRED

Yes, I have Earache. It's horrible and I had to review it. It is the only game I have played this year that is worse than Crazy Frog Racer 2.

Oh, and, yeah, it's Euro. I thought when you said "preferably North American" you meant...mostly. Or whatever.

Anyway, give me a sec.

Okay, apparently NFL Street has no credits.

EA and Ubisoft = the new Atari.

Oh well, thanks for the offer though. I've been plugging in random PC games and such into MobyGames and bookmarking those. I just need something to do for work tomorrow.
Title: Re: I need scans of instruction manuals
Post by: littlemathletics on March 07, 2007, 11:25:17 PM
Yeah, Moby Games is probably the best resource for that. What are you looking for, specifically?
Title: Re: I need scans of instruction manuals
Post by: demi on March 07, 2007, 11:26:42 PM
I need the credits to look them up in the Database and see if they are in there already. If not, I look them up using the usual methods and enter them in, since they could be at a different company than the game they worked on.

Just simple data entry stuff, but from the comfort of my home. Until the website project gets rolling.
