Manual based protection
 

Hi guys last week I bought a bunch of amiga games from Ebay . Many of them Konami games . And my package arrived and when I want to play this games on my amiga , I am shocked . Because many of them asking a password from the manual . But this is not brand new games and not comes with manuals . Only the disks . Many of them Konami and some another companys like Moonstone . What I need to play them ? Could you help me ?

can find the manuals on HOL :)

Some cracked games require you to press enter......

What is so shocking on copyprotection???

Because they are original only without manuals

Of course original disks were supplied with manuals. You bought incomplete games and you are shocked that they ask for manuals?

Yes . First time I saw a protection like this .

Usually the password pages in the manuals also had some kind of Xerox protection.
or the password procedure asked for page 'x' line 'y' word 'z', requiring you to have the whole manual.

Yeah it's the second one :/
