Just a few things to change here.

==Cut-scenes==
This section needs to include the phrase "hor +" somewhere.


==Installer Anomalies==
This section doesn't have anything to do with widescreen, and isn't really necessary.


==Grading==
The grade is Certified. But this could change if any singleplayer anomalies are discovered.

I added the installer notes because it is a HUGE bug that many people will experience with the game. It is a detailed report after all.

It is a good game (i got it friday and i was suprised it supports everything correctly). And it runs at 2560 1600 perfectly with a good framerate :).

Though the European versions of the game have Starforce (weather that is an issue to you or not it might affect some peoples take on the game)

The game uses prerendered fmv (.bik), so they must be tested too.
1. 4:3 Intro movies (logos, etc)
2. A 16:10 teaser appears after a few seconds of inactivity.
3. There are prerendered 4:3 cut-scenes in the game, although it's hard to find them :wink: For details install bink player from radgametools.com and go to binresvideo folder. Some of the movies are full-screen fmvs.

So this one loses certification?

Is stretching in triplehead only as big a grading hit as stretching altogether?

It loses certification and gets a B+. Stretching in TH = no TH support at all, as far as grading goes.

New grade, to reflect new rules:

Calculated grade: B+

Stretching in TH is a blemish

CCE: 100%
