Are the screenshots from a tutorial intro movie of sorts, or does the game use anamorphic widescreen?

I have yet to see a TripleHead-friendly 3D "point 'n click" game :lol: but that sucks for 16:10 too, not to mention the 4:3/5:4-equipped casual gamer target audience for such a game :?
And Sam & Max games were Hor+ I think... *sigh*

The eyes are one thing, but I for one don't just sit and watch games, that's my point.

By the way, who d'you like the most - Wallace ? Or Gromit ?

Anamorphism has absolutely no effect on any aspect on how you interact with the game... except for how you "watch" them. Think about it - all you're losing is some screen real estate. Gameplay won't be affected by the black bars. If anything, gameplay may be *enhanced* because more of the game world will be visible on the screen than it would if the game were hor +. Your point does very little to suggest that anamorphism sucks for 16:10 users when playing games.

And I find Wallace's zaniness a lot more fun, but it wouldn't work without Gromit as a straight man.

Tell Tale has released the demo of Wallace & Gromit, their latest episodic adventure. Like Sam & Max Season 2 it is anamorphic. It has support for everything up to 5040x1050 (though this pretty much a waste).

We don't Certify demos, but this looks like the final product will be. Will do a full DR when the full game is released.

Wallace & Gromit - 5:4, 1280x1024


Wallace & Gromit - 4:3, 1024x768


Wallace & Gromit - 16:9, 1280x768


Wallace & Gromit - 16:10, 1280x800
