I can't wait for the widescreen/triplehead fix. There is a absolutely delicious benchmarking tool, that's just begging me to make a comparison video.

Looks like I'll be putting off playing this until a fix comes out...

God damnit.

Checked out that Ubisoft forum thread and it's nice to see someone from Ubi answering instead of just sitting there dumbfounded.

But I expect action from the WSGF community long before Ubi gets off their asses.

Now i expect the same problem with the new Prince of Persia..but i won't be a big shock, as NO PoP game has native support.

Same here. I don't own a wide screen monitor to play games in cut down screen view.

If the come out with some bs answer that 'we made it that way on purpose' I'll do something....I dunno...not nice.

I normally advocate a good, old-fashioned riot. :wink:

It doesnt matter what the default is.

Vert- in Widescreen resolutions when compared to 4:3.

Sure, but that implies that 4:3 is the default.

It will want to make people "correct" it to match 4:3, when they should be correcting it to match 16:9.

Way to get the word out, Paddy. Hopefyll with a stink comparable to teh Bioshock wank, this will be remedied.

But.. i'd settle for a hack. I find it really hard to not play this game, it looks like lots of fun.
