Finally, the text is no longer lost on SDTV (as is Capcom's mind). Reacting to all those complaints of unreadable text in Lost Planet's multiplayer demo, the company has implemented a fix that automatically increases font size for those text boxes if the game detects your Xbox 360 is connected to an SDTV.

Capcom even went as far as to mail Kotaku their press release with pictures of the before-and-after just to show them and teh intarwebs what wonderful people they are. Perhaps the Angry-Gamer guy who hated the Lost Planet MP demo got his own copy too, which should go very far in alleviating that guy's review of the multiplayer.

In addition to this, Capcom also tweaked the single-player a bit. New objectives will be delivered by voice and by text, and will be saved to the in-game PDA for future reference. So there should be no more excuses for "WTF am I supposed to do now?!" moments from the forgetful.

Screenshots above show the before and after-fix. It shouldn't be too hard to see which one has the text fix, would it?

» Wtf How dare you diss Capcom

No matter what system you're for, capcoms making the best games for them so shut the ***** up.



Where would GC be without resident evil, where would ps2 be without devil may cry, where would nintendo, sega, sony, and microsoft, arcades etc. be without capcom.

» ok

I'm not even going to rent/buy Lost Planet until they fix the small text for Dead Rising (then and only then would I rent/buy that game). Capcom may have fixed one little thing for a game but they are still as hated as EA to me. I still hate both companies.

» Then you might as well go ***** yourself

Since most games are made by Capcom, EA, etc.



but why stop there hate on ubisoft too since theres a million tom clancy games out, how about konami, and ***** lets go first party NINTENDO, give me one reason to hate on capcom, you dumb *****. Just because you cant afford a good tv to see the letters doesn't mean capcom *****ed you over, here's an idea RAISE THE VOLUME IF YOU CANT AFFORD A VGA CABLE OR HD TV YOU PRICK!!!! oh wait maybe capcom shot waves into your head to make you deaf too. Well if thats the case, then read the title.

by BlaseCasper316 - 2006-11-29 18:29
» yeah ok

I take it you haven't played Dead Rising, because not all the text based communications have voice with them... maybe you should thing about something before you open your mouth moron...
