i've always thought that 3D games would be very cool ever since i heard about it like a year ago. i was beginning to wonder if they were still planning on doing it so it's cool to hear that they will and that i can use my own TV.

Im fairly certain avatar is launching with 3d enabled.

The problem is with movies, everyone ive seen. Toy story 1 and 2, monsters vs aliens and UP, some scenes it works fantastic. when it makes sense in the scene and its not a distraction, its crisp, clean and engaging.

however when they try to make everything 3d there are too many "grounds" to focus on, leaving some parts of the scene indistinguishable and distracting.

the recent game informer issue with Avatar explains that the game devs noted this and are not going to go crazy with it and use it when it makes sense, just like the movie. Hopefully the game launches with the option and Avatar is done right because some scenes are just annoying because you cant focus on all of the scene and it starts to blur.

This is another step on the right path,I cant believe people are hating on this idea.

If they expect people to buy another TV then that's a failure otherwise I see this being quite the idea that might actually pull through.

this might be a pain for people who wear glasses though

All I can forsee is a few minute of novelty follow by headaches... pass for me, I get motion sickness to easily I guess?

After this I don't trust 3D gaming.

Hey guys, I know a lot about 3D because im a big fan. I used my old crt TV still for imax movies. Heres is teh real fact about this:

Sony is bringing new TVs in the market at the end of 2010 (the one we see on TGS and things like that are prototype), the 3D will be polarise circular type (the same as imax). So there will be no flicker, since its not about shutting lens one after the other like with my old crt TV. They do not need 120 hertz either. They are working to have a lot of games updatable as soon as they release the TVs. This type of 3D is really great and not to be compare to shutter glasses. Most 3D Tvs and computers (nvidia) use shutter glasses right now, but theres already some TVs that do polarisation.

You definitly needs a supporting TV, but it will not give headache because theres no flicker, the Ps3 will also be able to support it on any games if the developer want to put some extra work. This is real information.

Thanks a lot for clarifying it to me man, much appreciated ;) Seems like I have no idea about 3D at all hahahaha

So can someone explain to me how the polarized lenses 3D technology is supposed to work without a 120Hz TV? Since those sunglasses like 3D theaters run at 120Hz and use the polarized lenses to give the 3D effect, but you claim that you won't need a new TV.
