SNAPMATIC - Aspect ratios!

[dannybohy]

so, I notice my friends Snapmatic shots appear to be higher definition and full widescreen ration. Whereas my snaps appear to have 4:3 ratio with black bands on either side.

Is there a setting to change this?!!

WHy is it like this!! WHY! WHY!!

Is your TV widescreen? If not, there's your problem.

can you even play this game on an old TV?

I remember having to buy an HD TV for gta 4 because I couldn't read the text or make out anything on my radar

You can, you just have to adjust the safe zone in the option menu.

but is it playable, like I said on gta 4 everything was clearly made for HD so the radar would just be a low res jumbled mess of pixels and the text was so small it was hardly legible

Screenshots are taken on the resolution you play on.

I could read everything clearly on my 2000 RCA 21" box.

This was the first game I had to adjust anything regarding the picture size.

Depends on screen size I guess, if it's a 32 inch you shouldn't really have problem, on a 19 you might struggle.

Honestly I'm 100% serious, for once I'm not trying wind anybody up haha.

 

Snapmatics are basically screenshots, so if your screen isn't wide then the screenshot wont be either.
