An excellent resource on all things Widescreen/Eyefinity/Surround is the WideScreenGamingForum.com.

What you are experiencing with CoD is an improper field of view (FOV) due to the game not scaling properly for your ultra-wide aspect ratio. If you google "Widescreen Fixer" you will find a program that will fix this problem for you in a host of games. I wasn't aware that this was a problem in WoW (I actually tested it just to see how WoW would look/run in Eyefinity a few months ago and didn't have that problem).
 
Contrary to popular belief, I went back to a single monitor after using a triple monitor setup for about a year. The main reason is that not a lot of games still support triple display at that time. And if it did, it looked so stretched and zoomed, like you mentioned.
 
Welcome to the club!

And yes as was stated, adjust your FOV. You will still have some "fisheye" in some games, but I still rather have that than nothing at all, and quality is improving continuously.
