Games that Support Dual-Head Setups?

Posted by Cliff on from the two-heads-are-better-than-one dept.

Milo_Mindbender writes "It seems like almost all the new high-end 3d cards now support dual-monitor operation as a matter of course. I'm wondering if the game savvy people out there can recommend games (Linux or Windows) that have special features or modes for playing on a dual monitor system. I seem to remember seeing at least one C&C like game awhile back that let you have two views on the world (one on each monitor), there must be a few more that take advantage of this. Anyone know of any good ones?"

  1. A little clarification on what the guy means by Spuffin · · Score: 5, Insightful

    He doesnt want to know of games that let you spread the game out over multiple monitors, he wants to know of games that have special FEATURES that use 2 monitors. Such as in the C&C game he mentioned that you can view your base on one monitor, yet the other monitor can be viewing some other place. This opposed to just having a huge view of one location.

  2. what games do you have in mind? by CMiYC · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I guess I'm kind of curious if there are games you want to see with dual head support. Personally when I play a game, I play it because I enjoy it. Not because there are specific features in it.

    So my question is, what games would you LIKE to see dual-head support in? I think the obivous have been stated... but that being the case, if you could have it, where would you want it?
