I don't care about wide or not...anyway, during my TFT researches, I read that it's more comfortable to play on WideScreens when the game supports it. The problem is : how the hell do we know if UT2k4 supports 16/10 screens !!???!!
If the games doesn't support wideness, then you'll have black verticals bands on both sides...maybe this is not a so huge problem, but I would like to try  |

I have a widescreen laptop and its really shit 
Its like having a mac instead of a normal windows pc, you need to look longer for everything because it aint a MOST used.
Prefer having 2x normal size 19" then a widescreen

I run a wide screen and i play ut at 1600x 1200 res. Ut 2004 will run perfectly fine on wide screenmonitors and all newer games such as fear,prey bf2 etc have a lot of res options shipped with the game! Most older games have wide screen patches available from the developer sites too! |
