Pandemic really screwed up by adding little to no Widescreen support for PC users. If you have a 1680x1050 resolution, or anything else in 16:9, prepare to be screwed out of your money. I purchased the game with the idea (from Scott himself on the Pandemic forums) this was going to support widescreen, and it doesn't do it for crap.
Guess you didn't know that this title was made back in the late 1990's as a win 95 title. The Reason I know this is because I picked all 3 MW2 titles up at my local babbages back when they were seald brand new titles.
The makers/publishers are FASA and Activision.
Might be a good idea to do a little research before blindly picking up a title. When the Mechwarrior 2 franchise came out The Pentium 1 chip had just came out.
