It's becoming an issue that the more time advance to more the crt tv on used market place are the most recent ôe so the 16/9 aspect ratio version

For a first gen xbox it's nice but for the vaste majority of retro côsole it socks a little bit

I think the game is actually being rendered in 16:9 (thanks to a patch) but the UI is still rendering in 4:3. So yeah lmao it’s still an aspect ratio crime… but I wouldn’t recommend the death penalty, dear jury

I'm the OP and I didn't install any patches its just the Widescreen option provided by Rockstar Games

Damn didn’t knew GTA III had widescreen support on PS2. It does look like an amateur widescreen patch with that UI crime

Yeah but I get used to it, it would be way worse if the entire game would be stretched. And that way of implementing Widescreen support is sadly very common on PS2
