For some reason, when I put in both Battlefront 1 and Amped 2, the games are displayed to fit my widescreen TV, but when I put in Soul Calibur 2, it becomes a square again. Why is this?

I noticed that SC2 supports 'HDTV 720p' on the back of the box, but it fails to do it.

For the record my 360 is hooked up via HDMI, 1080p.

Depends on the game. My Psychonauts and Shenmue II aren't widescreen :( but DooM3 is.

SC2 never went full widescreen even when I play it on the xbox. I'm guessing the game just doesn't support it even though some people have said it does.

I was supposed to use a pendulum to knock over a tower in Sonic '06 but I had Silver use a wooden box instead and it came down as though a missile hit it.

Which is weird... isn't 720p by its very nature a 16:9 ratio'd resolution?

Not all XBOX1 games support widescreen. The GTA's and Battlefronts do. But Psychonauts, for example, doesn't.
