Seems to be a lost practice thanks to youtube. Older gaming manuals always had a note section. I always used a regular pad of paper. I remember writing all the notes on paper of OoT songs so I didn't have to pause. All the QTE's for Shenmue II. The right path to take in a certain part in Grandia on the rainbow road. RPG's used to always take notes. I think I still have some when I was 14 or so in old guides. Now some games include a way to used notes like Hotel dusk to write them down in the game. 3DS has an app that let's you make notes in the system.
So do any of you still write notes for playing a game or just use a guide/gamefaq/youtube?
