Is it me or is the 360 almost unplayable on standard def tvs. I bought dead rising which plays like crap in standard def. Graphics wise its okay but the text is unreadable.
Rainbow Six: Vegas, which has to be my favorite game, is totally unplayable on my 27" regular tv. I effectively can't see anything unless I'm zoomed in with a scope. Now, I dunno if it is just because I just got back from vaca at the rents where I was playing it on a 50+" hdtv, but I don't think so. But I don't think so, since I have only ever played Dead Rising in standard def.
I feel a little alienated...or rather, I feel like standard def wasn't even a consideration on the part of developers.....
I'm going to grab a set of the vga cables today and see how it looks on my 19" lcd. If it looks better + plays better, I'll grab a 22" lcd for the 360. I know it doesn't look as good as the hd components, but as long as it is playable I'm happy.
