Not long ago, wgt decided to change the format of the frame opting for a wider screen. That was really a nice change and i believe made happy lots of people!
Now, how come completing the job? Why can't we have a 1,78:1 frame in full screen mode? How many players still using old CRTs? 1 out of 10? 2 out of 10? Bet there are no more...
So, from the moment that 16:9 monitors have become mainstream in the market for at least 10 years now, wouldn't be more fair (for the majority of players) and wiser to adopt 16:9 frame?
