Developers: Do you plan on supporting widescreen resolutions?

[Guest jimcooper1]

Just thought I'd throw in my pedantic observation!!My widescreen monitors are 1920x1200 and 2560x1600 both of which have an aspect ratio of 16:10 (or 8:5)RegardsJim

Most other games released now have native widescreen support. Let's hope flightsim addon developers catch up to this quickly. I'm still hoping that in the near future flightsim will move to the next-gen consoles. No more $4,000 computers to play $40 games!ricardo

And if they (the consoles) WERE user upgradeable systems they'd be PCs, of a type. All the games I've seen which I rate as "good" are massively extensible. I don't want to lose that functionality. The peeps who play Oblivion on a console got a short, sharp reminder of that. No non-game_company extension on the console version.Just my v$0.00002:D

I would certainly start to make 2D panels to fit widescreen if I used one. Trouble is I have never seem a LCD screen to match my 19" CRT.I also have a 100hz Sony TV at home (for watching TV) I have never seen a LCD (or plasma) TV to match it either...ok HD TV will beat it but if and when it arrives.So..... a bit like FSX ...I don't just by new things because they are new.... I have to know they are better.! :-hah

I moved from a good 19". My LCD beats it hands down, no question. BUT I did have to pay for the quality. I figured, I look at this damned monitor almost every day for FS, other games, work, internet etc... it was worth the expense. I also fly exclusively VC so the wide issue is a non-issue for me. Just my 2 cents.
