Well, there is a serious perspective distortion on the outside monitors (left and right) buildings are falling inwards, trees also etc. This occurs in photography with wide angle lenses etc. and is fixed with some other lenses or in modern days with simple utilities or photoshop filters.

It shouldn't be appearing in the games since 3 (or 1) monitors should emulate human vision, not a camera barrel distortion!
So, my personal opinion - that game on that setup is just crap and waste of resources. It would be painful and disorienting for prolonged gaming and all those monitor frames are not helping either. One bigger (and cheaper) screen with 1080p would do a much better job! Smile

just my 2 cents
