==Medals==
 
===Widescreen Certifications===
 
{| style="border: 0px"
 
|[[File:WSGF-WS-Gold.png]]
 
|This medal is awarded to games which have received a perfect score from the WSGF for their widescreen support, and are Widescreen Gold Certified.  Gold Certification means that the games run properly in all widescreen aspect ratios, without any issues, and without requiring any fixes or modifications to the game.

|[[File:WSGF-WS-Silver.png]]
 
|This medal is awarded to games which have received near-perfect scores from the WSGF for their widescreen support, and are Widescreen Silver Certified.  Silver Certification means that either: 1) the game runs natively near-flawless, with only minor issues (for which a fix may or may not be available) or 2) the game requires some minor fix by the user to obtain widescreen support.  With the needed fix, the game may still not have perfect widescreen support.
 
|-
 
|[[File:WSGF-WS-Limited.png]]
 
|This medal is awarded to games which have significant issues with their widescreen support.  There are several reasons for this grading: 1) there are persistent issues with the game which cannot be fixed or 2) any fixes to implement widescreen support must be applied every time the game is run or a level is loaded or 3) the fix to implement widescreen support is complicated and/or could damage the users computer if done wrong (i.e., a Registry edit).  Limited Support rating shows that either the game has persistent issues, or significant effort must be made to overcome any issues.
 
|-
 
|[[File:WSGF-WS-Unsupported.png]]
 
|This medal is awarded to games which have no viable widescreen support.  There are three major reasons for this grading: 1) the game screen is stretched across the widescreen aspect ratio, 2) implementing a widescreen fix breaks the game and makes it unplayable or 3) the game requires a more challenging solution such as HEX editing the games binaries.  An Unsupported rating shows that either there is no widescreen support, or that implementing widescreen isn't viable for most users.

===Multi-Monitor Certifications===
 
{| style="border: 0px"
 
|[[File:WSGF-MM-Gold.png]]
 
|This medal is awarded to games which have received a perfect score from the WSGF for their multi-monitor support, and are Multi-Monitor Gold Certified.  Gold Certification means that the games run properly in all common multi-monitor aspect ratios, without any issues, and without requiring any fixes or modifications to the game.
