Re: PS3 and TV Help?

[pantswarrior]

Haha, funny you should mention FFXIII.

I was on a 19-inch standard-def TV that had been just fine for my purposes, up until FFXII came out, and my girlfriend and I couldn't read the text on the menus. But I happened to spot a Black Friday deal at the store where I worked at the time, and used my employee discount on top of that, and got I think a 25-inch SDTV for like $150. And FFXII was BEAUTIFUL.

And then FFXIII came out and once again we couldn't read the menus. :P And then one day we were in our favored thrift store, and spotted this GIANT old HDTV. Like we looked up the model number and found out it originally cost $4000 when it was new... which was like ten years ago. But it was big and HD and cost $100, so we got it. And then FFXIII was BEAUTIFUL. (Though I still don't care for the game itself, it's visually pretty.)

At this point I'm sort of afraid of getting another FF game for fear that I'll need yet another larger TV.

That's kind of a tragic story, actually.

I think my current TV (which I've had since about high school, iirc) is a bit bigger than your 19-inch, which is probably why I haven't had trouble with FFXII. But I'll remember to go as big as I can reasonably afford if/when I get a PS3.

Yeah, it's like the developers just ASSUME everyone with a console is going to have a giant HDTV, so they don't need to make anything readable in standard def at moderate sizes. I will admit though, the games look WAY better with an HD connection (whether it's HDMI or whatever else) than in standard, even on the same TV. Since that large HDTV was so old, it predated HDMI and we had to get a special cable for it - but in the meantime, we used the typical old red/white/yellow plugs. Same TV, same size, HUGE difference when we got the right cable.
