Rare releases new Text-Enlarging update

21
If you load up Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts today, you'll be prompted to download an update. If you're playing on a High-Def TV, then you won't really notice much, but those of you playing on a Standard-Def tube will be happy to see that the small text problem has been solved!

Banjo Kazooie is a really fun game. You should try it. Great plaforming elements, the contraption building is fun, funny, great art-direction, graphics and tech are top-notch.

Please, spare us the empty FUD.

It's a game that people who haven't tried or played to a greater extent love to hate just because the initial reviews were bad.

I've always stated it was great and it's definately one of my GOTYs. Reviewers seem to have come to terms with that since I've only seen high scores for it lately.

Once you get into it you get hooked.

Why can't they do this for Dead Rising? I've since gotten a projector since that game came out but I remember having to squint back then.

The Japanese were too busy laughing at the worlds low HDTV adoption rate to do anything. :O

In all seriousness, Banjo was probably patched because it was a first party title.

3.2 - I was thinking
the same thing buddy. I stopped playing dead rising right after they explained the save system because the font was so small. I was playing on a 32'' Sony Vega back then. I heard it was a good game, but i couldn't get past it.

As for banjo kazooie...the jury is still out.

I still don't think people with an SDTV would enjoy now that its legible.

Thank god. If they only they would still format games in 4:3, I think its pretty ridiculous that they don't because the majority of 360 owners still use SDTV.

I have an HDTV so its not a problem for me, but I'm just saying its ridiculous for the people that don't.

Will add this game to my collection soon. I like it when Microsoft releases Family friendly game at $40 instead of $60. Sony needs to do the same to LBP.

Nope. Its at about 350k. And it is still selling well for a family game like this.

It's pretty damn hardcore when you get to later levels. Demands some constructive thinking as well. Which is awesome! =)

Lots of value for money. It probably takes +30 hours just to run through the main quest. Then there are side quests aplenty...

A lot of developers don't really think about the players experience while making a game!

I'm a console gamer God Dammit! I slouch on the couch approx 3 metres away! I'm not a PC gamer sitting at a desk leaning forward towards my screen in eagerness at only 30cm away!!!!

Radar in GTA4 is too small!!! BAD!!!!!

COD4 menu & text etc nice and big... GOOD!!!
