Thats interesting,  I wonder why they are so far behind.  It cant be cost thing since those TV are so expensive in the first place.  

I just could have sworn that I played GT5 in 3D @ 1080p,  thats why I questioned it,  but maybe I didnt see it switch to 720p.  

Yeah it was 720p...which s a great achievement considering its the only console game thus far to do 720p per eye 3D. Everything else is like 1/2 720p...

"It's a bit harder to determine resolution in 3D than in it is in 2D since there's so much more visual data for your eyes to process (depth) but I'm pretty convinced that we are looking at true unscaled 1280x720 resolution per eye."

 

Here is a thread which talks about this which I just quickly found - http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?p=20546341

Nvidia forums has threads like this every day..."Why can't I select 1080p resolution when gaming on 3D TV?"...etc

Well so much for thinking I have a top of the line 3D TV.  What a ripoff


I wouldn't go as far to call it a rip off but yeah...once "true" 1080p 3D TVs come out in 3 years people may resort to calling them rip offs.

The good news is that you have a samsung which is the only TV to support checkerboard 3D which is awesome.  Its basically an optical illusion, and despite only running half of the 1080p pixels, looks 90% as good as true 1080p 3D. Sadly only PC can support it (and Avatar, crouching tiger and other early 3d console games).

HDMI 1.4 standard came killed that 3D mode...and gave gamers something worse, lol.
