Title: How Do Games Handle 4:3 Aspec Ratio Displays?
Post by: shodanjr_gr on November 28, 2005, 12:39:00 PM

How do PD0, PGR3 and Condemned handle displaying to a 4:3 aspec ration display?

Do they alter the output resolution? Switch to letterbox? Stretch the picture?

Ill be playing my XBOX 360 on a 17" TFT Screen via the VGA cable.


Any first hand exprience is greatly appreciated.

they all look fine in 4:3 except for condemned which stays letterboxed.  i played my 360 on a regular tv and a monitor and none of the games looked disorted or stretched.

happy to help, i was thinking the same thing before i got my 360 and it all worked out fine.  even with games like condemned which dont give a full screen option the letterboxing is great and isnt even noticable to me.  so far from all the playtesting i have done with my system you wont be dissapointed no matter what you play your 360 on.

condemned is full screen for me on 4x3, using component cables but HD not enabled.
