I've taken a recent interest in the new game The Saboteur. If it works well enough in triple head (running 3x 1080p via eyefinity here), I'd definitely get it for the PC. So, anyone actually tried it out?

Paddywak EDIT :
Some screens ... it is clearly vert- ...







Using the tool by Racer_S to correct the vert- issue.
The tool isn't perfect so read the 7th post below ... by Racer_S for more info.

Mod, please move this to the multi-monitor section:

These are horrible pics because you cannot change the res in-game, so they are different angles, but it is indeed Hor+ in extra-wide resolutions and they do appear on the menu.

Awesome! thanks for the quick reply. Sorry if I posted this in the wrong section. I'm new around these parts..

However, I think I'm going to have to wait before I buy:

Wow, that's pretty shocking. Although problems with the game aren't completely unexpected due to what happened to Pandemic.

I took a punt with this on the 360 and it's pretty poor. While it's not terrible, there are simply a wealth of better games you could spend your free time (and money) on!

I bought it because a trusted reviwer liked it a lot and I liked the concept. Honestly I am glad I did, I find the game quite good.

I've made an FOV Hack here: http://www.tocaedit.com/IB/index.php?automodule=downloads&showfile=53

Results:
well, im unable to get a full screenshot, heres what fraps gave me at 5040 x 1050:



that time to beat thingy is stuck on the screen but it dont bother me much...

another note, dont exceed 1000 in the fov hack, you'll get some corruption. 860 seems ok for me.

For TH it does.

Paddywak had requested it, I couldn't find any other threads here about it...

Maybe it does Hor+ up to a point. Unless I'm doing something wrong?

On a side note, this hack is pretty rough and cause some glitches in certain places. I'll have to see if I can fix that.

Yeah it certainly appeared Hor+, those screens are bad because of the res change happening outside the game, but it was Hor+. Maybe it stops being Hor+ at some point, I can't verify that, but it would be the first time I heard of such a thing.
