Sweet. I have this game, but never played it. It always looked like fun. Will have to do so now. Can you provide a 16:10 screenshot? Also, a Detailed Report would be great. |

I only have three 5:4 monitors atm, so SG reports are all I can do. :( I definitely recommend playing this game, it's got great graphics and sound with lots of funny details, and though it might feel confusing at first ("is it a RTS or a Tycoon game ? How to take care of an entire base with so few micro-management ?" etc.) I got totally hooked up in no time, enjoyed it from start to end and know I'll have to complete it again soon. The official Evil Genius site/forum/Wiki and the awesome FAQ by Saint over at Gamefaqs were of great help, too. :) |

That's some massive HUD stretch - though still totally worth it by the looks of things. I might even have to give that game a go someday. Thanks. Is the larger cursor part of the HUD stretch? |

I only have three 5:4 monitors atm, so SG reports are all I can do. :( If you have an NV card, you can easily set up a custom ratio of 1280x800. You can then do a comparison of 1024x768 and 1280x800. |

Will do then :) Tyinsar, that BIG cursor is a mystery to me. Cursors/crosshairs tend to behave so differently from game to game in SG resolutions... :? |

Nah, I'd be only too happy to be able to do detailed reports. No luck with 1280x800 though, it stretches no matter what :cry: |

Very weird that it will do multiples of 4:3 and 5:4, but won't do widescreen. |
