    XBox: Links 2004 480p - Yes 16:9 - no DD5.1 - Yes HD - no Online - Yes Custom Soundtrack - Yes Looks very good stretched, hard to tell that it's not 16:9, but you can verify by looking at round objects in 4:3 mode vs 16:9 mode on your HDTV and clearly see that round stuff looks...

    XBox - Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six 3 480p - Yes 16:9 - no DD5.1 - Yes HD - no Online - Yes No, it doesn't look horrible stretched, better than GR and GR:IT look actually. Similar to Splinter Cell stretched graphics I guess.

    Yes, Top Spin is very stretched, but you do get used to it after an hour or so of playing, and the terrific gameplay more than makes up for the lack of widescreen support. Same can be said for ESPN NHL. I was really ticked that it was 4:3, but after a few weeks of cooling off, I'm kinda used...

    I'm not buying it (re: no 16:9 support for ESPN NHL Hockey, aka NHL 2k4). The post was made by someone from Visual Concepts that just registered 2 weeks ago, it's not an official statement, or an official interview with the developers. I think we have an ill-informed employee that...

    Outlaw Volleyball is absolutely a 4:3 game. You can discuss it over at the developer's forum if you wish: http://www.hypnotix.com/forums/showt...?threadid=1074 (Mike, the admin there, is one of the guys that made the game. Complain to him).

    Why is NCAA BB 2k3 for XBox listed with DTS 4.1 sound? It's supposed to say DD 5.1 sound.

    Rob - If you dashboard is set to 16:9 enabled, if will pass through 16:9 games as 16:9, and 4:3 games as 4:3 (pretty much just like a DVD player works where you tell it what kind of display you have in the initial setup, then it knows). So, if you don't want 4:3 games stretched, you'll...

    Doug - XBox games do not have options to turn 16:9 on or off. They detect your dashboard settings and will go 16:9 automatically if it supports it. Just because it's multiformat, don't rule out 16:9 support. Look for something that should be perfectly round, then switch formats on your...
