Cranky's coverage estimate:

Looks like the Bioshock's "solution" to widescreen.


EDIT: Does it by any chance use the Unreal 3 engine?

It does :) (and Vert- means no TH2G again) :evil:
On a sidenote it is supposed to be a not-quite-sequel to Area51, which was a consoley "FEAR meets AvP on the road to Roswell" kind of FPS. Developpers include Deus Ex 1 & 2's Harvey Smith.

IT'S A MIRACLE! Another developers that uses the Unreal 3 engine and has the exact same artistic view on widescreen gaming.

I have the game Area 51 which was not bad at all, but I heard that one producer of Blacksite said that this game, Blacksite, sucks, so I never gave it a try.

I am sure someone that would know what he/she was doing, could make the game Hor+.

Ironically, Rainbow Six Vegas, which did not support widescreen resolutions out of the box, and still has lots of visual bugs when they are enabled via the 1.05 patch, is in fact hor +.

==Supported resolutions==

How about 1280x768? Were you able to test that?

Also, I'm assuming there is no HUD stretch. I don't see any in the shots, anyway.

Grade is C+, coverage is 98.5%

1280x768 confirmed working
