You guys want the truth about 3D gaming on 360 and PS3?

The truth - its not going to be worth it.

There will be like 5-10 games that support it, mostly xbox live/PSN games.

Do you really want to spend 2000 dollars on a TV so you could play these 5 games?

If you want proper 3D gaming, get a 3D capable monitor (samsung and viewsonic have a bunch out starting at 249) and spend 1000 dollars on a PC instead. Trust me, you will be laughing at those console owners when they are talking about playing Chu chu rocket in 3D while you are playing Bioshock 2 and Mass Effect 2 in true 1080p stereoscopic 3D.

Wow calm down dis, you should know better than most person here that when a computer simulate a 3D image from a 2D one its far from looking as good as a real 3D media. Hope theres more real 3D media either on computer or console in the future. Unless Mass Effect 2 and bioshock 2 will receive a real 3D port  im not aware of it.


It usually takes a week after the game is released for Nvidia 3D vision to update the dreivers or have a patch to support it.

Dark Void is already supported...http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=155742&hl=void&st=40

They have not missed a major game as of yet so its a 99% safe bet that Mass Effect 2 and Bioshock 2 will be in 3D before their release week is over.

Same with other 3d drivers on PC like tridef and iz3D. They just may need a driver update or a new driver profile.

Don't get me wrong, I am glad consoles are doing 3D...but it really isn't going to be anything substantial till next gen comes. Nothing worth spending 2000 dollars for to obtain a new TV.

Sorry I didnt know that, but is the drivers or patch looks as good as if the developers of the game would have program it in 3D (like avatar). Ill get a 3D TV anyway since ill replace the old CRT that takes a lot of space. But if it really look as good with Nvidia driver I might install a computer on that TV. Too bad they are not releasing a good 3D Projector at an affordable price (below 5K). The depth Q projector doesnt produce a very good looking image compare to what I have now.
