August 22, 2007 - 18 years ago

  It looks like the BioShock developers have been caught being a bit lazy…. Take a look at the screen above, the red shaded parts are the parts that you don’t get to see if you have a widescreen tv… Instead of losing the sides on a normal screen they have opted to go with this option.
