Happy Thanksgiving to everyone in the US, and a happy holiday season to everyone else around the world.
Another way we're celebrating Thanksgiving is to repeat our giveaways from last year. The Thanksgiving weekend brings amazing sales on Steam, often at huge discounts and with multi-pack offers. To get in on the action, all you've got to do is:
Here we are on the eve of Black Friday for the US Thanksgiving holiday season. A month ago the WSGF put forth its review of the AMD Fusion E-350 APU platform. The AMD Fusion E-350 APU platform was targeted at a specific segment of the gaming population (the ultraportable and netbook segment).
With the A8-3850, we want to expand our viewpoint so that a broader aspect of our audeince can make an informed buying decision. The A8 series from AMD is targeted at the Intel i5 platform (with integrated graphics).
Next up is Need for Speed: The Run, the game fully support multi-monitor resolutions out of the box and even has a centred HUD, however it appears the Frostbite engine is over doing the lighting flares and driving into the sun will reduce your visibility to about 10 meters in-front of you. I do have an extended version uploading atm but you tube doesn't appear to want to encode them at there 4k resolution anymore. Once again if your monitors width is larger than 1920 pixels and you have lots of bandwidth, set the quality to original and play the video in full screen for a much higher quality.

The WSGF is very thankful for its members who volunteer their time to fix lacking Eyefinity and Surround support in current titles. Many of these are major releases such as Battlefield, Call of Duty, Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and L.A. Noire.
The lack of developer implemented multi-monitor support means that these titles will provide much less enjoyment to Eyefinity and Surround users. Without the efforts of these community volunteers many of these titles would remain usable only on single screens.
As many countries and cultures enter into their Thanksgiving and Holiday seasons, please join us in expressing our thankfulness to this volunteer army of community coders by donating in our donation drive. All of the proceeds will be distributed to the active coders on the site. It will help them with acquiring hardware and software to improve their patch development.
Thank you very much for your help and support. You can donate through PayPal by using the Chip-In in this article or in the left nav.
It's a bit late but here it is, the game natively supports multi-monitor setups however it stretches the interface which breaks it, but luckily a couple of people are working to get a fix created, this video shows one of the fixes although the fix is still work in progress. I've got an extended version on the way that will continue the video for about 28 minutes of gameplay total. Once again if your monitors width is larger than 1920 pixels and you have lots of bandwidth, set the quality to original and play the video in full screen for a much higher quality.

Another Modern Warfare game, another crap port, but not to worry, within 24 hours of release, dopefish has already delivered a fix. So this video will show both the original gameplay footage, as well as footage with the fix applied. I've got another extended version on the way that will continue the video to the end of the level. Once again if your monitors width is larger than 1920 pixels and you have lots of bandwidth, set the quality to original and play the video in full screen for a much higher quality.

Thanks to dopefish for adding support to this game in his Widescreen Fixer tool, now you can play L.A. Noire at multi-monitor resolutions without the terrible Vert- (zoomed in) behavior, please check the game's Detailed Report for all information, under Multi-Monitor Specific Solution.
You can discuss the solution in the Multi-Game Widescreen Fixer thread in our forums.
I am pleased to announce the WSGF Edition of the Ergotech Heavy Duty Multi-Monitor Stand. The stand is based off existing heavy duty stand that I reviewed here on the WSGF. It is designed to convert from a three monitor (3x1L or 3x1-P), to a four (1+ 3x1-L) or five monitor (5x1-P) setup. The WSGF Edition offers several changes and upgrades, including:
Below is a video I put together about the development and prototyping process I went through to arrive at the final design. The stand will be available exclusively through the Widescreen Gaming Forum, and I expect to have it available before Thanksgiving.
