    Was the font ridiculously tiny for anyone else? Maybe I just need glasses, but man. The intro text looks like elvish LOTR jibberish.

    lol, hells yes. hdtv came out like, 5 years after this one. I was hoping there was a magic "make the font larger" option, but i think the real solution is high-def.

    If there was enough complaints I'd imagine they would have released a patch, like Banjo Kazooie did after awhile.  I don't remember hearing anything particularly bad about the font around the time of the games release, so it must not have been that bad.  Sit closer to your TV? :P

    Dead rising was another bad game when it came to font size on a SDtv.

    @zombie2011: Dead Rising was the thing that pushed me to get an HDTV.

    Yeah. Typography and menu systems in games are just generally headed in a direction where HD is almost a requirement. Kind of sucks being stuck in standard definition. :(
