Beyond Good and Evil console and tv tune widescreen solution

Post by fragmental »

From what I've read Beyond Good and Evil for pc does a letterboxing thing no matter what your resolution is which makes it stretched in widescreen resolutions, which is really lame.

However, I don't have the pc version, I have the gamecube version, so what I do is hook it up to my tv tuner card, which I bought for about $20-30(it's a kobian mercury...it has really bad software support btw), and then use dscaler. In dscaler I can simply press ctrl-2 to switch to a 16:10 ratio, which is what my lcd screen is.

Of course, that leaves me with a 720x480 resolution, and the version of dscaler I'm using takes up too much cpu(I think it may be buggy), but it works. I'm sure it would probably work with the ps2 version too.

I have also seen hd displays that can crop a 480 picture to achieve the same effect.

It is too bad we can't do something like this for the pc version.
