Nope, I play full on full screen. I don't have any e-friends to chat with on whatever chat service people use. Plus I get easily distracted so if I have another window up I might get on that for an hour and kinda just kills it for me.
I never play it windowed. The window is just a pointless distraction between you and the game. If you want to quit, go to the menu and select exit, or press escape. no need to clog up your view with a window border.
In consoles, there's never a border around your game. It just gets in the way.
I use windowed mode when I'm playing CS 1.6 on my school laptop, that way I can click on somthing else when the teacher comes by. I need my gaming fix at school too if you know what I mean. :D
i play full screen, i feel windowed mode ruins the sense of immersion.
when i got AC and loaded it first and there was no option to make it full screen mode my reaction was "WHAT!?". luckily i googled it and in short order found the Alt + Enter fix
I play in window mode depending on what I am doing. Such as if I am just watching a demo and talking on irc or other chat programs I'll do window mode.
I can see why some wouldnt want window mode in a SP game as it is meant to immerse you into the story. But since I play MP for the most part, I have no probs playing in window mode.
Nope.. when i play i like full screen and get absorbed into the game world. I can always ALT TAB if i need to do anything, however if im chatting with people i won't be playing games.. you can't play a game while people are constantly messaging you.
Only if im playing a really old game that doesn't support widescreen. Can't stand playing a game when it's all stretched so I'll settle for windowed.PwningStick
While I agree that some games look @$$ on low resolutions, I somehow have absolutely no problem with playing Thief 1 on 1024x768 using a 22" widescreen monitor @1680x1050.
I sometimes play windowed, especially if the game is known to crash on alt-tab. Windowed is also good if you play from places you are not really supposed to do it from (ie. work) :)
