Everyone needs to experience 3D gaming... so this 3d hype push can be over. Its fun for a couple of months but eventually it gets quite tiring. It really doesn't enhance a bad game, and a good game is good even without 3D...so once your eyes get used to the effects, it really isn't that great. I found 3D great for Dreamcast and Gamecube emulators as it gave me a new perspective on older games which I've played long time ago.

Otherwise I rarely use 3D for PC gaming these days unless there is a truly stand out 3D title (like Metro 2033 was).

3D movies are a different story...those can be enjoyable on a weekly basis.


Maybe everybody can't afford to experience 3D gaming. lol

it's about 400€ screen included... if you're gonna buy a new screen anyways, it's really not expensive.

I've had it for 6 months and i'm not the least tired of it. Though yes, it does not have a wow effect in most games anymore, I still like it and use it.


The 22 inch Zalman 3D monitor which is really great is like...200 bucks now? with 2 pairs of glasses...

All you need is to spend another 2-300 to upgrade your PC and get IZ3D or Tridef 3D drivers and you can do PC gaming in 3D.

So yeah, 400 euros may be a right estimate.

Yes, Sony, Samsung, LG and Panasonic want you to get a 3000 dollar 3D TV, but there are other alternatives which so far are a lot more practical and have better quality 3D.
