Back in the days Halo:CE only supported 4:3, while Halo 2 had 16:9 Support and 4:3 Support, so does Halo 3 and ODST.
No Idea what I'm talking about?
Well ever since NXE the 360 supports 16:10 Resolution via VGA Cable, like 1680 X 1050 or 1440 X 990 (<- I believe).
But since Halo 3 and every other 360 Game I have played this far only supports 16:9 Resolutions (1280 X 720 as an example) you have black bars at the bottom and the top when you play with your 16:10 Screen. Since Halo 3 is already one of the few games with 4:3 support, I think it would be neat if Bungie would add 16:10 support for halo: reach, for those of us that use their 360 with their PC Screen, and trust me their are many who have a 16:10 Screen for their PC, it's quit popular.

Who is with me?

Caboose: "your a thing that babies suck on?"
Tucker: "no dude, that's a pedephile"
Church: "tucker, i think he means a pacifier"

Personally I do not see this as a necessary thing to be done, though I do understand what you are asking. It isn't the norm for a TV to be typical 16:10, and many HD sets offer you the ability to zoom the image if you feel it necessary.

Zooming is something else than the picture fitting in the resolution. I could just put it on 1280 X 1024 and strech it, but it looks just horrible that way.
I know it's not necessary and I do agree that their are more importan things to be done about reach, but Halo is one of the few games left that over stuff like splitscreen, 4:3 support etc.

Come on guys, I'm sure their are more people that use 16:10.
Back when I posted this as an Idea for the 1.2 Patch for H3 a lot of people wanted it.
