As far as user guides go, I think I prefer the Elder Scrolls wiki. http://www.uesp.net/ Though many of the games came complete with a pretty detailed manual *and* replica of a book referenced in game. It’s pretty spiffy.

Guild Wars games have also always come with neat manuals.

I also like Blizard’s games because they have great manuals which you don’t actually need due to the in-game tutorials.

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic also had a nice manual; which was a good thing, because the differences between classes wasn’t explained very well ingame.

As far as depth and length go though, I don’t think I’ve seen any game that beat the Civilization 2 manual. The thing was a whopping 150 pages or so. Which was understandable; it was a pretty complicated game and a lot of people didn’t have internet when it came out, so they had to make sure the manual included *everything* the user might possibly want to know.
