Just get a HDMI cable, and try that. Will only cost like $20 for a good one.

I would blame this 100% on the vga cable, not the best choice for HD resolutions, use a hdmi cable

sometimes in games you have to enable theWidescreen option or less often itll have the aspect ratio instead of widescreen so youd want 16:9 or 16:10 (ive only seen LG tvs with this aspect ratioso double check what yours is cause you always want yourown native resolution for best picture)depending on what your tv is
