steam games
Are there any steam games or games in general that will play on a dual or triple monitor setup?

I have never used monitors like that but I imagine most of the newer titles will be able too. I know grid and the dirt series do.
Thanks, I'll have to check them out.
If it is FPS games the last thing you want it to try and get it to span across 2 monitors, not much good when the crosshair ends up split on both monitors.
As far as using 3 monitors, unless you have a HD 5xxx series card or 2 Nvidia 4xx series in SLI (don't think they have added support for it to the GTS/GTX 2xx series cards yet), you will need something like the Matrox TripleHead2Go to be able to use 3 monitors.
For a lot of the newer games they are starting to support 3 monitors or have support through the video card drivers. A good place to start with seeing what works and what doesn't is here,

supreme commander lets you play the rts on one screen, with tactical overview on the other.
i don't know about sc2 though.
flight sims often have this dual monitor feature.
left4dead 1 and 2 and dead rising and a few other titles are triple screen dual screen but realisticly three screens is a eyesore im old fashion i'l just take a large screen lcd and not worry about spanning across three 22 inch screens in the long run it will cost as much as buying a 55 or a 60 in
I have easily run L4D2 across 3 x 24" monitors using an ATI Asus 5850 vid card.
Talk about sensory overload!!
It was a temporary setup (I "borrowed" the 3rd monitor) just so see how to do it.
but it worked.
