Multi Monitor User - Annoyed as hell [Win8/x64]
Did nobody test this game on a multi-screen setup?
If you write game-code that crashes and is unable to parse multi-screen setups PLEASE provide an out-of-game graphic setup utility. I actually had to disconnect two screen just to be able to start the game and disable fullscreen ode.
The fact that a game comes out in 2013 and STILL manages to not be able to work with a multi-screen setup is really damn annoying.
Please mention this in the Steam description and allow a "start in windowed mode" option for other folks with more than one screen.

That's strange. I have a triple monitor setup at home running on a GTX 680 at 5760x1080 resolution, Windows 7 x64. I played through the launch Steam PC version with no graphical issues. Most of QA here also plays on dual monitors.
I'm forwarding this on to customer support to investigate.
If you wish to switch to windowed mode when you first launch the game you can use the shortcut 'Alt-Enter'. From this point you can resize the game window or switch back to full screen.
Since you have Windows 8, you may be running into an issue with using a controller. The latest Windows update, version 8.1, resolves this issue. This update should be available this month. I mention this as maybe you had a controller and unplugged it while disconnecting your other monitors.
