Well this fine game has native widescreen support. Correct FOV and everything. It also is Co-op all the way through with up to four people either over the net, or hotseat if you have enough controllers. Oddly enough it has no LAN support.

It's sort of like Diablo with X-Men, only less loot.

First was not on the PC.

Very glad they put the second one on the PC. I think games like this and D&D Heros and such were made for the PC and the multiplayer aspect.

Everytime I try to go into a resolution of 1280x1024 or higher, the game won't boot and says it has to switch back to defaults. The game does have correct ratio though at 16x9, it's not stretch, but I have to play at 1136x664. I want to play at 1720x1000 though, this sucks.

Small update. The multiplayer sucks ass. Everyone has to stay in the same screen, even over the net, just like you're all playing on the same TV. The game pauses when messing with inventory or stats, and only one person at a time can adjust inventory, making the problem worse. The pausing problem is exacerbated by the fact that you level every 5 minutes.

Nevertheless it makes for a good single player game.

This game appears to support almost any res. I was playing this game on my HTPC at 1920x1080. I will try it out tonight on my 2405 @ 1920x1200 and post screenies for the MGL and screenshots sections.

Great game by the way. It has the best online coop ever!

It supports all of the resolutions that your display driver can use in Windows. I had all of them available. (all of the standard resolutions, plus all of the custom resolutions I added through the Nvidia driver)

I posted 16:10 vs 4:3 screenshots here:
