You can't come close to taking in the game landscape at 57X10, but it is an arcade like experience. The 30" I can take see the whole field of play, and fills my field of vision well.

If I had to choose one or the other, I'd take the 30" just because it works with everything and is a more "natural" field of view.
Let's not forget that when gaming with three monitors, 16:10 (5760 x 1200, etc) is much better than 16:9 (5760 x 1080, etc). The extra height makes a big difference to the surround field of view.

A few games that I highly recommend for Surround Gaming: Crysis, Crysis Warhead, Crysis 2, Dead Space, Dead Space 2, Resident Evil 4, Resident Evil 5, the CoD series (especially my favorite, MW2--Domination matches are the absolute best), MMOs such as GW2, TERA, and WoW; racing sims, flight sims such as Microsoft Flight Simulator X, BF3 (lol), etc. And much, much more...
