Yes, it is because you play on a standard definition TV with 4:3 aspect ratio and not a new TV which has 16:9 aspect ratio.

No, it is the width your TV came in, games today aren't made for old TVs. You could try going to your XBox 360 settings on your dashboard and setting the XBox to widescreen mode. I haven't done it but I had to for Mass Effect 3 and Halo Anniversary because they left black bars on the to and bottom of my screen if I didn't.

No, it doesn't really annoy me that much.

But you know what does annoy me? Spelling errors.

I intend to live forever, or die trying,

so far, so good.

Yes.

But BF3 is even worse, when playing Conquest, the area you are near appears right above your recticle.

What were they thinking. And some new vids of Halo 4, your medals appear in the middle of the screen. Thus better be fixed 343.

Beside the name thing, Halo is perfect, with medals appearing on the side. Nice work Bungie.

The only time I can think of that happening is when Im playing Call of Duty. Them modders be be spammin' them messages, but its nothing you notice when you actually play the game.

Arbitor they outnumber us three to one!
Then it is an even fight.

Arbitor > Arbiter.
Arbitor = Rank above Arbiter.

A big thanks to kids that did this to 343 after they heard they get an infection game mode in halo 4 with no thought of normal playlists.
