The contingent of
Overwatch players clamoring for ultra widescreen support in
Blizzard's multiplayer shooter since before it even launched will be pleased to
see
this forum post from Jeff "Gabe" Kaplan. The Overwatch game director
responded to the latest question about 21:9 support, saying, "We're working on
this now. ETA late July -- give or take." There is no response yet to a
follow-up question about whether this update will also add support for 4:3 and
5:4 resolutions. This came a couple of days ago, but this news seems to have
been overlooked before now.
Here's the current listing of the 10 bestselling titles on Valve's
Steam
service for last week:
- DOOM
- Grand Theft Auto V
- Dead by Daylight
- Fallout 4
- Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
- The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
- ARK: Survival Evolved
- Arma 3
- Rise of the Tomb Raider
- Stardew Valley
Looking forward to the
Game of Thrones season finale tonight. I agree
with the assessment that the show has changed substantially since it ran past the
books, and while I regret the move towards more traditional hero fiction where
characters have conspicuous (sometimes embarrassing) plot armor, the improved
pace of the show is welcome, and I suspect the elimination of some of the filler
may hold part of the answer to
George R.R. Martin's recent question to Stephen King.
