No font patch for D.Rising
If you've played Dead Rising, you've probably noticed that some of the text is quite small on the average HDTV set. The problem is amplified several times over on a "standard definition" set, where the smallest text can be completely illegible. It had been hoped that Capcom would provide a patch enlarging the game's fonts; it seems however that this might be technically impossible. 1UP reports a spokesperson as saying, "Due to the amount of text and the size of the patch necessary to change the text, a patch isn't possible for this issue. We had asked the team if it was even possible but...due to the scope of what a patch would need to cover, it wasn't possible." Hopefully, Capcom will at least learn from its mistakes in future HD games.
