With MvC3 hitting the streets, I can't help but miss this introduction every time a new fighting game comes out.   
It was always indicative of the quality of writing and the accuracy of the information in the FAQ.   
Of course, nowadays, crowd-sourcing is the new "thing".   
Everyone can contribute, everyone can edit.  
 
Still, in the early days of internet FAQs, writers could really make a FAQ something personal, gives a certain flavour to the otherwise faceless screen or sheet of paper, filled with Courier New and weird ASCII representations of a joystick. As if someone sat down next to you, explaining every detail of the game at your own pace, trying to keep the otherwise dry walls of text entertaining.I really, really miss it.
