Widescreen Patch (PC) Now Available.

Both BioShock 1 + 2 had issues with users playing in a widescreen resolution. Now BioShock 2 joins its brother in widescreen bliss.

Details after the jump.
article_main In a break of tradition... I'm not copying and pasting from KOTAKU. Re-read that line again after the shock has subsided. And then read the copy + paste from Joystiq.

Folks who elected to resubmerge themselves into the world of Rapture using a computer have had to suffer a pretty serious display issue -- due to a last minute bug fix, the PC version of BioShock 2 shipped without proper widescreen monitor support. The game would simply slap a letterbox on the 4:3 display, limiting the player's field of view. Fortunately, a patch released today adds 16:9 and 16:10 resolution support to the game's repertoire, meaning you'll finally be able to see that Splicer that's been creeping alongside you for the past few days.

The patch also fixes an issue in which "holding the M1 button would not register in Multiplayer gameplay," which sounds equally serious. Those are the only two fixes in the available update; however, 2K community manager Elizabeth Tobey promises "a larger, more extensive patch" is currently in the works.
