Nice to know. If they would have fixed this from the beginning, maybe I wouldn't have canceled my pre-order and bought other things instead.

But then I remember that the Demo made we want to kill myself. A shame really.

Awesome, I'm happy about that. It strained my eyes and I have a HDTV.

I'm not sure why people dislike it, but to each their own. Well I guess I am sure, but I like the things about it that some dislike.

To me building a car to fly up somewhere is not all that different than finding some contraption (or ability) and flying up somewhere... which is how the game undoubtedly would have handled it otherwise. At least you have some say in how that works for once.

And actually... I hope this does increase it for ALL users, not just SDTVs. It's hard to read on anything.

I'm near sighted so I couldn't even play the demo as that text was too small. Might I'll give the game a rent when the update hits. Although I think I'd rather buy the XBLA version.

Good to hear. I tried playing the demo and couldn't read ANYTHING and just said 'Wow, Screw it' and turned it off.

Same happened with Dead Rising. I don't see why companies cater to those with HDTV's when a larger base own SDTV's

I *still* haven't played Dead Rising and I bought it over a year ago ... I popped it in once and couldn't read the text on my SDTV :( Waiting until I can upgrade the TV to play the game ...

Yay, we got something done. Regarding Dead Rising, who still plays that game?

Good call on their part. I pre-ordered it and looked at the demo after. For a game so dependent on reading the text was way too small and I almost cancelled the order. I'm looking forward to it now!

Wasn't aware it came out, let alone went gold.. how they or Capcom didn't notice the small text.. aren't the games supposed to be tested in different resolutions....?

Yeah, I'm sure they test it in 720p and 1080i/p. Anything else is sort of digging back in ancient times.

Hopefully this won't affect the text size on HDTVs.

The second rare achknowledged the complaint, and then said they wouldn't fix it for money driven reasons, they were pretty much given no option but to fix it.

Good to know, I have a SDTV and didn't have a problem reading the text... it's just that damn auto-scroll.

Wouldn't it be simpler to have a setting that simply adjusts the text size to the players preference? Is that at all possible?
