:welcome (From the other end of the UK!) :)

Nice set of displays, I bet that is mighty wide sat in front of it hehe.
I expect that to be good for Sim based games more, although FPS would work well too, although the fisheye effect will likely be much greater than that of 3x 16x9 due to the wider aspect.

Have you gamed with triple screens before?

What is your system spec?

Ohh and I like the back lighting, what do you use?
I have a similar setup which uses an Ardunio with some WS2812B programmable LEDs using Ambibox as a controller to change the LED's while in game to match that of the display. :)

:welcome
The LEDs give it a pretty cool look.

I'd love to recommend Fallout4 but the Widescreen support is so bad.....
Have you taken a closer look at the division?
For racing Project Cars and Asetto Corsa are currently hip.

Re games, recommend NFS latest. Have not played, but will be great. Likely great spread.

There are many great games from pre-2015 that deserve a playthrough. Games get overlooked/forgotten, gems for us to find.

How about some immersive brutal RPG action? Recommend Dead Space 3 (etc), Dead Island series (another is releasing this year), The Evil Within & DLC, Metro Last Light Redux, Lords of the Fallen, Shadow Warrior (a new one is also coming out)....

I'm currently playing through Watch Dogs 2014. It looks great & FPS is good (but needed to be tweaked). Underrated.

You could check my blog for other ideas, piles of great games with gameplay screenshots.
