I also got a second copy of the LE. It also happened back when Sins of a Solar Empire was released. At that time I hadn't spoken out, I just assumed I got lucky, but now it's a pattern. Both time I had pre-ordered the digital copy, and upgraded it to a physical copy (don't remember if SOASE had a limited edition), since I wanted the bonus. My guess is the original purchase and the upgrade are treated as separate orders, the first for the online edition + LE, the second
I remember the Golden Age of PC Gaming (GAPG? GAPCG?) and its manuals. I remember the massive X-Com Apocalypse one, still see it from time to time, since it's laying around in my bedroom. But the manuals I miss most are Blizzard's, they were not as big, but the art in them was absolutely beautiful. I just bought Starcraft 2, and the absence of a unit list in the manual made me quite nostalgic for the olden days.
