Well, it finally happened. The first Valve-developed game using the Source engine that doesn't get certified. I don't like doing this, but I have to ding it a notch for the cropping at 16:9.

Valve, are you reading this? Move the "tip" up an inch and a half in your next patch! A Source game not getting certified violates the laws of physics or something.

==Grading==

Calculated grade: B+

Major unresolved issues: None
Minor unresolved issues: None

Summary of widescreen-related flaws:
Cropping bug

Cranky's coverage estimate: 100%

Adding further juice is the fact that there is cropping on the right side in 4:3.

Maybe it is my DPI settings? I will have to switch and check. Although no other game has this problem with the DPI. 8)

1360x768 not tested? Is it not a real widescreen resolution?

You could say it isn't "real." While most HDTVs use 1360x768 as their native res, I have yet to see one that actually supports it through HDMI.

referencing this thread [url]http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/node/]

My 32" LCD TV works great at 1360x768 with a DVI - HDMI cable, even though it explicitly states in teh manual do not do this, only use the vga port for PC display. The VGA port is limited to 800x600, 1024x768, 1280x1024 either displaying centered, or just plain stretched to fit screen by hitting pic mode on the remote.

I know us TV as monitor ones are a bit of the odd ones out.
