Wasn't a big fan of the idea until I saw some movie. Can't remember what it was. Probably Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs or something. It convinced me to pay extra for 3D whenever I had the option in theaters. From there, 3D TVs were an option. I never wanted one because the media always said that it wasn't any good.
The 3DS was announced and people at E3 were losing their minds. I wanted one but I wasn't really impressed when I saw one in person. I did wind up buying a 3DS in mid 2011 and I was satisfied with it. Considering how small the screen was, I was quite impressed when I played Zelda OoT. From there, 3D has been hit or miss with the 3DS as some companies use the 3D better than others.
Back to the 3D TV. I never wanted one. It had a bad name in the media and the gaming media. Some people spoke well about it but I had already made up my mind that I never wanted a 3D HDTV. Well, while waiting at Best Buy for my GF to buy a laptop, I wandered into the gaming section. I was looking for the Sony 3D headset. Of course, the device wasn't in stock. I saw a 3D TV on display with glasses in front of it. I looked through the glasses and I was really amazed by the tech. It was my destiny to purchase a 3D HDTV. I got one earlier this month and I'm quite pleased with it.
So, long story short, in movies, gaming, and television, I love the technology. I've even gone back and sampled games I own just to see the 3D features (Gears 3, Enslaved, Uncharted 3, Batman Arkham City) I missed the first time around. I gotta admit, I can't wait to play them with their new coat of paint. The 3D makes a difference. I wouldn't be surprised if I end up buying a game based solely on the fact that it has 3D compatiblity. It's awesome. AND, I just discovered that I had 3D programming with DirecTV all of this time. I'm in 3D heaven!
