This is a screen shot from Fallout New Vegas. Where the HUD shows at the bottom is the limit of a single monitor. The rest appears on the left/right monitor and would not be there on a single monitor. It is basically a widescreen monitor view except spread across 2 monitors.
I like 3 monitors better than 1 because I can angle the 3 monitors to appear more in my peripheral vision.
This is particularly useful in something like MS Flight Sim that allows you to set it up with 3 different camera angles in the monitors. You can have the windshield view in the middle monitor and the side window views in the side monitor. Because the camera in the sideviews is as if you were looking straight out them it is a more natural extended view.
In a game like Fallout, it still uses one camera even in widescreen so there is distortion on the left and right as seen in this shot to maintain the 3d prospective.

I am not sure maybe I should change field of view to get a wider view. Do you change fov with 3 monitors?
