The
official Far Cry 2 Forums have word that widescreen support in
Far Cry 2 is actually a
cropped version of the 4:3 video, reminiscent of a similar problem, or design
decision, from BioShock .If this is the same as the BioShock widescreen issue,
then its being completely overblown by people wanting an excuse to whine as
usual. I've seen comparison screens for the
BioShock issue
and what people were getting pissed off about amounted to basically losing the
bottom half inch of your wrench, nothing that affected the gameplay experience
at all. The
Widescreen Gaming Forum is all over this, as is their way, and there are
hopes for a fix for the just-released first-person shooter sequel soon,
official, unofficial, or both (thanks

In Far Cry 2 related news,

promotion where they will be bundling a copy of Far Cry 2 with their video
cards but this time the cards are GTX 280, GTX 260 and GTX 260 core 216.
