Bioshock 1 - Widescreen Patch?

I've been away from pc gaming for quite some time and now have a huge backlog of games to get through.

First up is the original Bioshock. My question is this: I understand that there is a 1.1 patch available. But I

remember reading something about needing a "widescreen patch" to play this game on widescreen monitors ( I have an Asus G73J gaming notebook).

Is an extra widescreen patch still required, or does the official patch fix this problem?

thanks for the help.

Bioshock always had widescreen. The patch just fixes the FOV.

The 1.1 patch fixes the problem. It adds an option in the graphics menu to unlock the FOV.

Thanks for the quick replies and the help!

1.1 patch fixes the problem, but first you need to go to the menu and turn "Horizontal FOV Lock" on
