BioShock 2's PC Widescreen Support Borked, But A Fix Is Coming

History is repeating itself in Rapture -- at least the PC version of Rapture. Fans were peeved when BioShock was released on the PC and didn't feature proper widescreen support.

Review: Bioshock 2

Jake "Big Daddy" Gaskill recently played through soggy shooter BioShock 2 to give you the honest word on the game's quality. In the sequel, Rapture is not faring very well.
