Forums - Sony Discussion - So I saw the 3D TV at best buy

I honestly think 3d will not work. I was watching a samsung LED 3d tv in the home theater section. I hardly noticed any 3d at all when i put on the glasses. The screen was also a 50" i think. In order for 3d to work i think the screens have to be much larger and have a much darker environment because i think the light also affects how you see 3d. Anyone else try this out?

So, was it playing a real 3D movie BR/PS3 games in 3D mode or did it use the internal 2D -> 3D converter? Of course the result of that converting is less than spectacular, as it's impossible to add a real 3rd dimension to 2D material.

I agree 100%. I saw the 3D TV Samsung at BB and the 3DTV Sony at Sony store  and they both look gimmicky, barely any 3D coming out, I expected something like what you get when yoou go to Universal Studios. 3D is looking gimmicky right now, I hope the 3DS comes with real 3D and not what we're seeing on these supposed high end TVs.



i watched some porn with 3d glasses. looked like effects of porygon(pokemon) that would cause some people to have seizures.



I played the avatar game on a huge Mitsubishi 3d TV and it looked awesome, and the shutter glasses 3d on that TV was much better than the shitty green and red glasses 3d in my local theater. So I guess its depends on how well that 3D effect is applied.



3D sucks.

Real 3d Is signficantly better than the Steriostropic 3d you're seeing on those TVs now. Just make sure you understand that.

Games on the PS3 will actually Stream two seperate instances of the game in order to produce the 3d images. they will be _very_ impressive.

the new super stardust is going to blow your mind.



I saw the same display and it turned me from skeptic to believer. In theaters i find it hard to focus on certain things, but the smaller screen made EVERYTHING clear to me. I thought Monsters Vs Aliens looked great.

I had absolutely no intention on supporting 3D in my living room until my girlfriend and I went to check it out. She thought it was better than theaters but not worth the upgrade yet, i thought it was better than theaters and worth saving for.

The scene we watched was the bridge scene with the robot vs huge tick thing or whatever. It really added a great bonus, imo. The price isnt too much more than LCD's or Plasmas now....its just the glasses.....i think it could work.

Prepare to be humongously disappointed then. I cant fathom the 3ds using better 3d tech without glasses to accelerate or shutter the image and with the processing power to enhance the entire length of a game.

Im completely stunned at what people are saying. Maybe the kiosks werent tuned properly? Because when we went we went as skeptics and came out of there excited. It was crystal clear, i mean crystal, easy to focus and actually added another dimension to the viewing.

Our rig was the Sammy package at Best Buy, and from what ive read the Panasonic is even better.

In all honesty i think its a bigger improvement to the experience than BD was from DVD.

they probably didn't watch 3D material, but converted 2D material on the TV, which is a bit like playing a PS3 on a SDTV ..



well 3DTV definitely need alot of work.
Since 3D movies are common nowadays. 3DTV will soon be popular too.
