This one's a little tricky to grade. The rubric doesn't have a specific mechanism for games that "hor + ... unless it's 15:9." IMO, it wouldn't be correct to say the game is vert -, and it wouldn't be correct to say that 15:9 isn't supported. I guess the best I can do is consider 15:9 vert - a "minor singleplayer anomaly" on the grounds that it only affects 15:9 users, and it can be worked around by using a 16:9 resolution. I'll grade it that way unless anyone else has a better idea.

I would like to see if 15:9 is vert- in the full version of the game.

And with the grading, do I leave what I saw as flaws in the lists or just copy exactly what you have written above?
Thought I better list them but if its not important I will remove them.

When I do the grading section, what I type is what I would include in the list if I had written the report. Since you're the one who wrote the report, it's up to you what you want to be in the list. You can copy and paste my list over yours, or integrate my list into yours, or even ignore my list completely (though I don't recommend that).

I would not ignore what you have written. You know more then I do when it comes to these obviously. Was just checking to see what you would like me to do. :)

I have dug up confirmation of all the untested resolutions.

Triplehead screenshots.

That sure as heck doesn't look right... :?

Screenshots taken from demo, someone with the full game should confirm. Perhaps with the odd aspect ratio support, 4:3*3 triplehead may work...

God I love this game. That's some massive Vert- there though.

I have the full game but not installed. I could check 1920x480 at some point though, if no one else can.
