I played dead rising on a 34" HD ready crt tv with component cables. I could read the text from 8ft, but the developers didn't take the overscan area into account. CRT tv's don't show the entire picture so the text at the bottom was cut off...
GTA4's text on the cellphone was definately too small, I had a 52" 1080p lcd tv by then, but could not read it from 10 feet away.
Now I have a 92" home theatre screen with 1080p projector and can read all console text comfortably from 10ft. Along comes the witcher 2 on pc, and the screen isn't big enough again... Even behind the pc monitor I have trouble reading the text in the combat log. It's 7 frigging pixels high.
