Read Full Detailed Report - Drug Wars

Merchants of Brooklyn is a first-person shooter by indie developer Paleo Entertainment. The game was made using the Cryengine 2 and is a PC exclusive. It has a cell-shaded visual style but is much more detailed than most cell-shaded games. It's a fast-paced game with little story and lots of explosions, the main gimmick being you can grab any item in the game world, charge it up with the right mouse button, then throw it as an explosive.

This is probably the first cover-up attempt in videogame history : MOB is now known and sold as Drug Wars, 'Merchants of Brooklyn' being only the title of the singleplayer campaign. Searching merchants of brooklyn on Steam store returns zero results.

Video cutscenes are made from static images and are Hor+.

Looks like they are only hor + to the left. The right side seems to stay the same no matter what.

-Supported Resolutions-

Please list the resolutions you tested. Taking it for granted that you tested all of them is an easy way to overlook one or two of them.

Well the cutscenes are made from static images from a comic book... even if it only expands horizontaly on one side, isn't that still Hor+?

I will update the resolution section with the menu resolutions and the "custom resolutions" I know I tried.

Yes, it's still hor +. It's just an unusual detail, and therefore worth special mention IMO.

Indeed.

The "custom resolution" thing is odd as well, to me anyway.

Resolutions updated... I think I tested more non-menu ones, but I only listed ones I was sure I tested.

Don't think I tested that one... any others I can try? I can do them all at once tonight.

That's the last one we need to test.
