Okay, so there's a hardware setting for Widescreen on the Xbox.

But does anyone yet know of games which support it?

Even with the option turned on, the games I have (Halo - the flagship product, PGR and Munch's Oddysee still appear stretched when I put my TV in Widescreen mode, and I have to switch back to a normal 4:3 display.

There appears to be no inividual setting in the games themselves, either.

Will all of you bloody idiots STOP doing this pointless quoting of long messages.

It isn't even funny as a joke.

From my collection, so far, Dead or Alive 3 and F1 2002 both support it and it looks much better!

Unfortunately I haven't got my normal TV (still in process of relocating) so I'm stuck with a 20" 4:3 screen.

I was wondering about the 16:9 option as I haven't seen any games with it in yet (not that I can remember at least).
