look at the survivor i found

076
Name: Tad Hawthorne
Age: 31
Game description: "Was held captive by Kent."
Location: Columbian Roastmasters [Paradise Plaza] (Day 3
noon) {Photographer's Pride}
Notes: You have to be on time for Kent's meeting, noon, to
save him. If you are late, since the scoop does not expire until
about 1PM, he will already be dead and you will have an
alternative battle with Kent. You must defeat Kent to untie
him, if he is not already dead.

I'm just trying to get into the game, but the tiny text is driving me nuts. I like to kick back and play, but everytime I get a radio message or talk to anyone I have to get up and get closer to read the stupid things. Anyone know if there is a way to change it? Looked through all the menus, but no luck and I rented it so no manual.

no there is no way to change the teaxt but all you can do is when you hear the radio check you watch and select the mission that you have enough time for you dont have to save everyone.

I love this game! I just beat it with the true ending as well, so I am going back to GRAW for a bit. If anyone here wants to play some games, I have GRAW, PDZ, DOA 4, and Table Tennis, so give me a shout! My GT is jackburke05 so hook it up!

Yeah I guess using the watch is the only alternative, seems like they hashed alot of the mechanics of the game together with little thought to practicality. Like the tiny text, not being able to select save spots (i dont like the idea of saving myself into a corner and then having to restart, which from what i've read isn't hard to do), random lvl advances, and probably the worst is making a "sandbox" game and then putting a timer on it. Of course I could just run around and say screw the game, bs around check out weapons, but then the time's ticking down and i can't even save the progress of my "fun game" and go back to playing by the clock.

I still haven't given it a real go yet though so I guess I really should before I bash it to much. Just seems off and definately wasn't what I was expecting.

I heard changing your 360 settings to Widescreen will fix that... HDTV also works.

A little diligence makes this a negligible aspect.

Advances are points based. There is even a "next level" bar that shows you how far you are from your next level up.

I will admit I really liked this game at first but have lost intrest in it. The gameplay is smooth and the graphics are very well done it's hard to find 2 similar zombies (excluding cops).

I will say that anyone who has a 360 should try this out, as for me, mine is in the trade thread,

No I mean what you recieve with your level up (ie skill, more item slots) is random.

The saving you could make do with, but I tend to be a pit of a perfectionist and i'll constantly want to go back and try to fix mistakes. Only having one save won't allow for that. Who knows maybe I will get use to it, but the point is there's no reason for them not to allow you multiple save slots. What would it really hurt; I don't think it would effect the game dynamics any.

Hmm I thought all you got for beating the game was overtime mode (extends the story) and then survival mode which is live as long as you can. So theres another option, once you beat story mode, you can go back and play with no time distraction? Might make it worth it then.

Still sloppy to not have a setting to change the text if they're gonna make it that small. I wouldn't do widsescreen, cut off the edges and not sure what hdtv would do on a normal tv. Guess i'll try it out.
