Sorry for the bump, but has anyone found a better solution to resize this game? NVidia scaling doesn't seem to work at all, I always end up with a 1024x768 image within a native-res black border all around, even with fixed aspect ratio scaling enabled. The closest I've come to getting an aspect-corr... |

Season 2 is complete. There have been no regressions (nor improvements) in widescreen support in episodes 3, 4 and 5. |

You cannot get 1024x768 and a 16:9 aspect ratio. The res is what determines the aspect ratio. The res is the aspect ratio. That's not entirely true. It's possible to have non-square pixels. In fact, it's not even uncommon. Anamorphic DVDs for instance use non-square pixels (720x576 would be 1.25:1,... |

so not even a update will fix?
No.
In the simplest terms, three 1920x1080 monitors have more pixels than can be transferred via dual link DVI. |

I used quick save quite liberally throughout the game since going into the menu and overwriting an existing save just took too long for how often I saved.
I usually cleared all but the most recent saves either before or after a session, though, to keep the save folder from becoming too bloated. |

If you go with BenQ, make sure their warranty support is good where you are. I had an FP91E (fairly expensive when I bought it) break and it took their outsourced support center 3 attempts to replace it with one that wasn't also broken or had an awful amount of dead pixels. |

Not sure what the problem is then. I can select 1280x720 on a 19" (1280x1024 native). |

It doesn't change the width of the desktop resolution. You can position the 1280x720 window inside a 1280x768 desktop without losing anything on the sides. |

So to them, Sam & Max Season Two can't be played in widescreen at all.
Unless of course they use 1280x720 in windowed mode. |

Now bascially, all I want to do, is play games on this screen...however as my 19in CRT is my primary monitor, how do I have the games load up on the 2nd monitor? Whenever I load up a game, it always loads up on the primary monitor, not my secondary HDTV. The simplest way would be to set up the HDTV... |

The combat system took me some getting used to. Otherwise it's a good, but not great, RPG.
To those in the US I'd recommend buying the UK version of the game, as your M-rated version is censored. |

The Gametap version stores everything in proprietary files (even saves, configs and such that would normally be in Documents). There's a standalone version available now though, and a demo. Maybe someone else can verify that 1280x768 isn't natively supported before I start digging into another versi... |

960x600 supported:
1280x720 supported:
1280x800 supported:
1280x768 seems unsupported. It does not show up in the in-game resolution list on a system that supports that resolution. |

Added your updates.
I'll try to get the lower widescreen resolutions to work (it's a matter of getting them to work with my system, not the game). However, my monitor's native res is 1680x1050 so I can't test the higher ones myself. |

VLC is great when "it just needs to work", since it comes with its own built-in codecs for the most common formats. It is, however, not the best option when it comes to quality. |

Nice to see decent widescreen support. However I'm disappointed with the controls. This is the first NFS I've tried since Underground and compared to RACE 07, Sega Rally or Juiced 2 the cars in Pro Street feel like a tank. |
