Mine also had the manual, map, and hotkey chart. But I bought mine within a day or two of release, and I'm sure most of the people here did the same. I've noticed that when a game is a couple years old and the price has dropped to $20 or under, the publisher stops shipping a printed manual to help save money. I've bought several "brand-new" games from Amazon.com and brick and mortar Gamestops that lacked a manual. Shrink wrap and security tape were in place, and it had that delicate "new game" smell, so I'm pretty sure it wasn't a used item pawned off as factory sealed.
