There's one, and it can be found searching this forum.

Just to reiterate what Dario posted above, here's another way to get higher resolutions using *Downsampling Method. Basically this feature enables resolutions higher than what your monitor (1080p default) can do and also for people who cannot afford high-end resolution monitors. I usually run my games in 2560x1440 using 1 Nvidia GTX 470 OC, 64bit OS, 7GB RAM. You can test resolution(s) even higher, but keep in mind your PC video card and monitors' hertz threshold.

*Just read the thread carefully and you should have no problems. Some games you may have to tic Full Screen instead of Aspect Ratio in the "Display/Scaling Mode" tab if your title screen to your game seems out of alignment/ajar.

I'm providing this link as a means of assistance and not advertising. I can verify that this technique DOES work and DOES provide a noticeable improvement in image/graphic fidelity. Link also includes how to do this for AMD/Radeon video cards as well. I've been using it for a few years now.

This methos works great in games like Darksiders 2, Castlevania LoS 1&2, Skyrim, Sniper Elite V2, Assassin's Creed: Black Flag, RAGE, Borderlands 2, State of Decay. Even other non-Steam games as well. Some game(s) you may have to manually adjust V-Synce On or Off in the panel. Be mindful of your CPU temperatures. I use MSI Afterburner for fan control to make sure my CPU fan(s) stay at normal cooling range, 60-70degrees.

You can also use Flawless Widescreen to support other resolutions; I've been using it to run @ 2560x1080 without issues.

[Villain]

they still haven't fix this yet?
I skip this game on release because it didn't support my monitor's native resolution(1440P) and I will not buy it until they patch the resolution cap.

[Billcimus]

I can't even get 1080 to work properly, it's scaling the image down for some weird reason.

[Quidam Phoenix]

Better off just playing it on console or avoiding it if you want higher than 1080p. Some of the assets might have been developed with high resolutions in mind but i doubt they have an interest in hitting 1440p natively, after all it was a pretty rough console port. Konami isn't known for their PC development.

Flawless Widescreen to the rescue again!

Guys, if you don't know about Flawless Widescreen... and you have a 2560x1080 monitor like mine... you need to run... do not walk... to the Flawless Widscreen website and download their incredible program. So many non-widscreen games are fixed by this program.

When I saw this thread, I thought, oh for the love of pete, not this again. Then I saw Quidam's post, and cheered.

Yup, Metal Gear Rising is supported in Flawless Widescreen. I'm looking at it right now.

Excuse me while I go purchase this game.

?

It doesn't run at 1080p on consoles.

The textures are certainly higher than consoles -- it may not be very impressive for PC standards, but believe me those aren't the same texture on Ps3.

[Quidam Phoenix]

Oh I know that, I have the PS3 version that runs at 720p. I'm just saying that it was developed with PS3 in mind and then ported later. Console ports to PC are usually sub-par unless done by a company with extensive PC experience. You just get the benefit of higher resolutions (usually up to 1080p and only 16:9) and higher framerates. Both Dark Souls I and II on PC are a great example of this.

Flawless Widescreen works wonders for me though.

[Bender]

It only does 16:9 for my resolution.. I need 16:10..
1680x1050

[Quidam Phoenix]

You'll probably have to play in 16:9 and deal with the letterboxing, a lot of games have 16:10 issues and i don't know of any fixes for it. Can always try flawless widescreen to see if it helps but I haven't tried.
