Anon becomes a predator
Lun0tic, We’re talking arcade cabinet
gmtom, One day you will all awaken to the 1:1 master race and will see the world through new, perfectly square, eyes.
taanegl, Mine are already squared… I wonder if it has to do with the 3-4 screens i have in my face all the time.
fibojoly, Meanwhile I finally got a 21:9 and I’m so not going back! 120 FOV might finally feel normal at this ratio.
may_nya, i’m happy to use a 48:9 screen then 👍👍👍

Tathas, Game developers:
PineRune, Shouldn’t these screens be swapped? The 4:3 matches the “seen by both eyes” of prey better, and the predator should be able to fit the widescreen in its “seen by both eyes” vision better.
sugar_in_your_tea, The player is the predator/prey. A wide screen helps you see threats, a narrow screen helps you focus on targets.

Laticauda, You couldn’t have just… Sat back a bit further from the screen?
sincle354, I will defend anon on the basis that having your HUD stretch from sea to shining sea assumes I have goat eyes.
TonyTonyChopper, 
good games let you move the hud closer to the middle
Honytawk, You could just change your resolution…
Or even just paste on strips of paper to get the same effect.
If their logic rang true then gaming on a phone would be the ultimate immersion.
sincle354, Something something Tiktok something something future is now old man.
starman2112, 
Nah, because 9:21 or whatever stupid resolution phones use now is basically even wider than 16:9, they just flip it on its side. 1:1 is the greatest resolution for gaming
umbrella, 
you are supposed to play games vertically.
like when excellent cinematographers record drunken fights on wendys and post on facebook
GrammatonCleric, 
I think you mean 1:1 ratio. 1 pixel by 1 pixel would be ultra no res 🤣
someguy3, 4:3 is a meme?
Itte, nah its pretty good actually
just that most media keep getting wider and wider
Hereforpron2, Gotta fit pics of ur mom
JamesStallion, I have but one upvote to give
Hereforpron2, That’ll do, donkeh, that’ll do
NotMelon, Bro, Yoda think he is
MindSkipperBro12, Connecticut spy, he was.
sugar_in_your_tea,
SubArcticTundra, 
It’s the Comic Sans of aspect ratios
Artyom, (edited ) It gets memed because some people say “It’s better I swear!” Then die because an enemy was in a corner they didn’t check fully because they can’t see as much. It’s caused pros to actually lose games in CS:GO.
LodeMike, Anon discovers FOV and probably higher framerates.
