I mean, it seams like that's the direction developers are taking. NVidia unveiled their glasses, and now Sony has been tingling around 3D stuff. This is all great exept, I can't see 3D! Seriously! When I watch a 3D movie, it looks really weird and not 3D. Pictures look flat too. I'm getting kind of ticked.

It's just a gimmick. I really don't see gamers wearing those "unique" glasses every time they play a game. I can't stand those things anyway, they always make my ears sore.

You were born with an eye problem that prohibited you from viewing 3D? If that is true, that's the first time I'm hearing anything like that.

3D gaming looks interesting. We'll have to see for ourselves in order to judge it.

Sterioscopic 3D is old tech, I don't know what all the fuss is about; in most games it looked like arse.

You are constantly adjusting the settings to reduce the appearance of ghosting, it is never perfect.

If we have to wear the glasses, what a hassle. If we don't, yippee.

They realize that 3-D and the Wiis motion sensing are completely different.

Gaming is just now becoming acceptable. Nerd glasses are a huge step back.

Man, you are going to hate 4D.

Don't ask - it'll happen... Somehow... Some way... I don't know. Happy New Year. ;P

Well, if you have one bad eye, you won't be enjoying 3D at all. You need both eyes, man :|

Oh wow... I never thought about that. Man that sucks... I feel for you. Hopefully all future "3D" stuff will be optional. Here's hoping.

And so is flailing around you arms swinging a Wiimote with your grandma. 3D could be the next evolution in gaming.

Flailing arms was always acceptable. Ever seen a school fight?

I can't really notice 3D in movies that well either.(And if it matters it was blu-ray on a HDTV.. not mine though :( ) So I'd be a little pissed. Though I think I recall seeing 3D easily in theaters though but my memory is fuzzy on that one.

3d stuff has been around for like a quarter century. It was a fad in the 80's movies then stopped. The sega master system had 3d glasses which I still have in the original box.

Its always been a good idea but for whatever reason, it never takes off. Based on past experience, I wouldnt expect much to come out all this talk about 3d.
