Time to new experience...

Hi everybody... I have once wrote here in 2005 about 3d gaming using the same technology as Imax cinema... but 3d projected on a still projection screen in front of you add little to the video game play experience... Things should be push further... You, the player, should be part of this stereoscopic vision of this virtual 3d world... Small and high quality lcd screens are now cheap and easy to get... The next generation should put the player in the center of the battlefield, LITERALLY... the next system should put the driver right in the bucket seat, LITERALLY... HOW?... 2 four inches (one for each eye separated up to your nose by a black curtain) 720p screen strap on your head... with even camera mounted on for head tracking or even looking at your real environment through the 2 screen if someone physically real in your home want to interrupt you while gaming..the two screens can even flip up to see your real surrounding if someone in the house yields at you... Its the only way to take 3d on another level for gaming... with cheap and good quality electronics we have today, its easy to assemble two small lcd screens together and strap it on with head tracking for the price of a new console... Oh!... and ad a good controller... remember... you can have all sorts of controllers... with this kind of platform with camera mounted on head... you can now see your own hands through your game...through those 2 cameras (one for each eye) you can now see in real time the sword or the gun like controller you hold in your hands... With this kind of new platform... You can now see the world around you through your game... 4 Real. Would you buy this next gen experience?...

so if i wanna play some 4 player coop i need 4 of these crazy LCD headsets.... ill pass.

Yes if those 3 other players want to play co-op with you ..they also have to purchase it... you have to purchase it to play it...

... can you see you... standing in the center of your room... but your room is no more a room ... its a battlefield... you are alone in your room and you look everywhere around you... and all you see is destruction... and enemies walking toward you...

I am Swirler...

In 2005... I also wrote hre under the name of Swirler... that the ps3 was going to go full 3d...

seeing as how you seem to be rather desperate for replies... oh mighty oracle of gaming, i suggest trying to breakup your original post into paragraphs. Most people dont read giant blocks of text around here.

I don't like the idea of having LCDs mounted on my head.

If I wanted games to become an over complicated 3d mess of a world, I would leave my house. ;)

All joking aside I have no real interest in a full virtual reality. I play games to relex, not space shift. I'm sure if the tech was good, and reasonably priced there is a market for it, but not me. I'm out.

Virtual reality was supposed to be the next big thing when I was a kid, seems weird that no-one is interested in it now the tech is available to actually implement it properly. Elutheria

From what I remember a lot of people got bad motion sickness and headaches from the basic virtual reality setups you used find in arcades and malls, don't know if that was to do with the old tech or a fundamental problem with virtual reality. Also the Virtual Boy system bombed horribly, maybe that's putting the manufacturers off.Elutheria

There are also special things... tricks to know when rendering game in stereoscopic vision...instead of rendering 3d graphics... in stereoscopic vision processors renders 2d graphics... but those simple 2d images (one for each eye) put together create 3d... your brain process it instead of the computer...

Is someone have something useful to say on this?... are you an hardcore gamers?... do you want to experience ultimate virtual gaming?... is it were your dream???8)

how about LCD rooms where all walls would be 3D LCDs even the floor , that would be the ultimate VR like almost like a holo deck :D ,

[QUOTE="fredthekeb"]... having small lcd screen mounted in front of your eyes is the only way to have a complete virtual experience because the projected 3d virtual world is following your head... you have to physically look around you to see in real time your virtual world surrounding.... and those enemies walking toward you... in 3d... and getting bigger... you are physically in your room ... but you look around you and there is no escape...

We need cheaper and more advanced tech (and no, plain LCD screens won't do the trip due to eye damage) to achieve this kind of immersion.

And PS9 is not possible in the near future, unless you know any kind of Super Secret High-Tech stuff we aren't aware of.

[QUOTE="rogerjak"]We can talk once this is possible =P

[QUOTE="rogerjak"]Yes there is. A very fine one for the matter. And it's telling me this isn't has quite feasible as you are making it sound.

[QUOTE="fredthekeb"]I repeat small LCD screens are not dangerous... they very weak light projecting product... remember those small LCD screen camcorder side in which you look hours... Its almost the same thing but refined...

Don't see the point of 3D yet. I'm quite happy with the way gaming is right now. Anyways, if 3d is really successful I think consolites will go for it, no pc gamers. Miroku32
