Well, that pretty much answers my Chatter post, I guess! And yeah, the letterbox feels really tacky. I heard there's a solution for that on the PC version, but a bunch of prompts show up in the black bars, so it's for naught... Good job with the descriptions, too. You don't give a lot away while describing what to expect in the game. Good stuff!

I really wanna try this myself now, but I only have a 360 to pick from, so I hope there aren't any technological limits that bog down that version.

RE4 was also letterboxed, as I recall.

JOSEPH VALENCIA was able to build this sig IN A CAVE…… WITH A BOX OF SCRAPS!!

It was letterboxed 16:9, which is fine. Excellent, in fact. It's standard now, but it was lovely back in 2005 when video games were still largely stuck in 4:3. Seems universally accepted that 16:9 is the ideal resolution for maximizing visibility in an interactive medium, as it accommodates our horizontally-aligned vision without sacrificing vertical real estate. 2.35:1 is a step too far, I feel.

And hey, thanks for reading!
