	I was really disapointed to see that Strangehold demo has the same problem as many XBox360 games have to this date. I mean ofcource the fact that us who play with PC TFT-monitors using the very usual 1280*1024-resolution have a very, very ugly picture. The picture is in 4:3 scale, meaning I have no true widescreen image. Furthermore, the image looks like it is being scaled from some very low resolution image. Unlike almost any other XBox360 games or which looks just great on my TFT-monitor... I was just wonderin do the developers have any plans to fix this graphical issue on the final game? Sain't Row had the same problem in the demo version, but the final game looked nice and had a true widescreen image.

	it looks fine to me... granted, some AA work would be nice... but other than that... looks fine... doesn't look like 4:3 either. 1280*1024 is not considered widescreen anyway. it's just 5:4. widescreen would be 16:10 (or 6.4:4, 4:3 is actually "wider" than 5:4)

	What? Do you have widescreen at 1280*1024-resolution?! I mean the game does't show the image at full screen, but instead shows those black areas at the top and at the botton of the screen? Offcourse I know that my display isn't widescreen, but the old kind of 5:4 display. But other XBox-games know how to produce unscaled picture just fine (with the exception of Call of Duty 3, which looked horrible too).

	yes, i'm outputting at 1280x1024... no black borders. 18" Mitsubishi monitor. it's not a widescreen monitor. standard 5:4. you sure your xbox is set to output at 1280x1024 STANDARD? not widescreen?

	Yes I'm sure it is on standard, not widescreen. Every other Xbox game works and looks just fine. :-) But if you don't get those black boarders either you have the same problem as I do. Hopefully not an issue at the final version of the game.
