I have the retail version of the game (store-bought, not Steam). I ran it with the 1.1 patch applied. FMVs are displayed in letterboxed format at a fixed resolution. The FMVs are surrounded by a wide, black border on my widescreen monitor. The game runs in 2560x1600 resolution. |

I'm sorry but I don't have the game installed. The reason the FMVs are surrounded by a wide, black border is because I have my display settings configured so that 4:3 resolution images are displayed normally rather than stretched to fill the screen. A person viewing the FMVs on a non-widescreen monitor would not see the pillar boxes. |

==Version== 1.1 ==Singleplayer anomalies== None found. (The game supports 16-bit and 24-bit color modes only. For some reason the screen would turn black during FMVs in 24-bit mode on my setup.) ==Cut-scenes== All FMVs (and menus) are displayed at a forced 1024x768. In-engine rendered cut-scenes are Hor+ in a decorative 2D frame that stretches. 4:3 
16:10 
16:9 
3x 16:10 
==Surround support== Confirmed native Hor+. HUD: scales correctly to the sides of the display. Real-times cut-scenes: Hor+ inside stretched frame. 4:3 
16:10 
16:9

cranky, does the "retired" status of this game preclude its belated certification ? |

Basically, yes. |

I suppose it means you won't bother updating your database, but it's still possible to consider it certified and update all Wiki info accordingly, right ? :? |

Well, if you want to muck around with the game's wiki page or the MGL "retired" page, feel free. Just don't update any of the "supported" pages with its info. |
