Only game I have come accross so far is Supcom (1+2).
However eyefinity can be used as with the other technology (can't remember which is nvidia and which is ATI) on games such as Left 4 Dead 2 and Battlefield.

SupCom is really good for dual monitors, you need 3+ monitor eyefinity for most games though, as they require you to look in the middle of the screen (what were those devs thinking
)Oh wait, its compboyo:
I do not span anything game wise over 2 monitors.
I do however have all stats/comms/relevant info on the secondary display.
So, without interrupting my game I can read a guide in a web browser. See friends who are online in Pidgin/Steam/Skype (And any IMs they do send) Can review all critical system data (Fan Speeds, CPU/GPU Temps&Load, FPS, Voltages).
Very very useful even without there actually being a game on both monitors.

Oh hai compboyo. You can be extra depressed by games on multiple monitors!
Seriously though I wish more games had multiple monitor options like Supcom does. Could do some cool things with it,

All i need is 3d tv and virtual porn 3d lmao.
'At the same time'?
Well, just move the browser to the 40" monitor in an extended desktop configuration.
I run my games in fullscreen borderless modes where available. Means you can alt-tab out instantly, quickly browse something and tab back in. Full Screen has that alt-tab delay and can be annoying if you want to alt-tab frequently.
Be aware, if you run multiple monitors of differentiating resolutions, playing a game in fullscreen may cause issues on the second screen.
E.G
[1920x1200 Main screen gaming] [1440x900] Second screen] , second screen may have stuff cut off, or displayed partially off screen.
It's what happens if I move from my 40" to my.. uh, 19" WS.
To get around this, usually play games in window mode/borderless but second beware, if you run crossfire/(maybe sli as well)in window mode, it won't use both gpu's as it sees the game as a 2d app. I don't know if there's a way around it, been like that for years.

No. Game client on main monitor and Battlelog on the other.
