Good news for Gears of War players using VGA cables on non-widescreen monitors, a fix for the aspect ratio problems is on its way.
Mark Rein, who is vice president of Epic Games, posted the following in the Epic Games forums:
Good news folks. We think we’ve fixed the VGA aspect ratio issue. This still has to go through testing and then certification but provided we didn’t mess anything else up by making this fix it should be in the next update. I can’t predict when this update will be released because we’re still working on a few other things for the update and, as I said earlier, it needs to go through the cert process. As soon as we have a good idea when that will be, and what ended up making it into this update, we’ll publish some information about it on this forum.
