GOG does fix games, though now they're supposed to be the ones tagged "GOOD OLD GAME" on the store they have in the past tweaked all kinds of games. A lot of the games that did that were ones that based their PC resolutions around then monitor standards which weren't 16:9 yet. There's lots of games that will render just fine in any resolution but the game has only certain resolutions listed in the settings. One of the very old NBA Lives can actually be forced up to 1920x1080 and it even does widescreen correctly but the in-game settings assumed nobody would ever have a resolution above 1024x768. I remember that one because even the menus render in the proper size, the games after it were PS2 ports so the menus were always locked at 640x480 and the frame buffer is 4:3 no matter what.
