There is a Dreamcast version of Triggerheart Exelica which is 100% arcade perfect (Dreamcast and the Naomi hardware, on which the arcade version of TE runs on, are basically the same hardware), with perfectly readable text.

Yeah, some games on the 360 pretty much demand a decent size HD TV.

To be fair, the Jpn text’s size in Lost Odyssey is at least twice if not three times the size of the English text, which surprised me. I think the Eng text in LO is relatively small even when playing on my 46″ Samsung LCD, I am much more comfortable reading the dialogue and novels from the import version.

Also Blue Dragon has 3 text sizes to choose from, but I could only imagine playing the game in SD is impossible w/ the letter box. I found that out the hard way when playing the Blue Dragon import on my 23″ LCD w/ a regular composite cable, which is essentially SD in widescreen. After 10 hrs in, I plunged down 40 bucks for a component cable and the difference is night and day… so yeah, it’s HD-specific.

What’s up with that? I’m having the same problem with Lost Odyssey It’s like all XBox 360 developers believe that everybody owns a 40 inch HD flatscreen.

Either that or Microsoft paid them off as part of a conspiracy to force people to upgrade, like they sort of do with their operating systems.
