Would I be able...?

Lets say I had a really wide monitor and I was playing a game would I be able to see more of an area rather than a 1920x1080 monitor?

This is just for curiosity sorry I was just really curious

It depends on the game and what the programmer designed it to do. In some cases, yes.

Have a look on http://www.wsgf.org/ at some games and see what they look like over a variety of resolutions and aspect ratios.

No you wont.If you want to see more up the FOV

[Brennan Price]

Yes, that is because you would effectively see more peripheral vision from the characters perspective and so on.

Yes, provided the game supports the resolution your monitor runs at. 

 

EDIT: Some games may work to fix the horizontal resolution, so it would be zoomed in, while others' UI may bug out.

I would only really use the second monitor as one for extra content. YouTube, internet browsing, etc. Stuff like that.
