Unfortunately I have a standard television( with a VCR, oh my), and i can't read dike on the top of the screen. It's cut off, I can only see the little legs of the letters and the bottom half of the compass. c'mon baby, break a brotha off!

I have heard of a lot of people having this problem, a little too much for Bethesda to not be aware, they should fix it in their next patch and maybe they will add a screen adjust option. Do you not have any HDTVs in your house? Maybe you could use another one for a while or play something else until it's fixed, Skyrim will still be there when you get back.

Hope I helped.

gotta get my butt to work and get one off amazon, but still it shouldn't force me to get a better tv lol. If they payed as much attention to these issues as they do to forum censorship, we'd all be happy little Skyrim campers. Who knows, maybe ZeniMax has a deal with Samsung to sell more tvs lol

I'm guessing Bethesda only tested on HDTVs to see the best quality of their game, I don't think there's anything sinister about it. The development team doesn't moderate these forums, they have a separate team for that as far as I know. There forum does have censorship for a reason and I think that the moderators may find it hard to distinguish troll threads from genuine threads. Just have a little patience and it will be fixed, I'm sure they're working their butts off to fix the bugs.

**draws a square in air**

Agreed. needs to have a screen sizing option. also should have optional text size increase in display options.
one thought i had is that if you have a crt monitor for your pc you could get a cable for your 360 for 12 bucks that has the hook up for standard pc monitors, which are higher def then tv's anyways.

Whoa, now that's a golden idea, Hails! could you point me in the right direction? what would that cable be called?

It's called a VGA Cable, this one should do the trick www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0030CGMAC/ref=mp_s_a_1?qid=1321233656&sr=8-1

Lots of people have been having this rproblem. Bethesda mentioned in another thread that they are working on fixing this for the next patch, whenever that is (hopefully soon).

nearly bought the wrong cable! That's for the old 360. thanks dude.
I take it back, you aren't a square
