I have a 3D tv, but I was having some issues getting the 3D to work when playing Gears 3. I set 3D on once I was in game and all that happened was I had the game screen shrink to one half of the tv with the other half showing the same image. I believe I am going to have to buy a faster HDMI cable for the 360 for the 3D to work properly, but I was wondering if there is any setting in the 360 menu that needs to be turned on for the 3D to work properly.

No need for a faster HDMI cable. Just about all 3D games on the 360, with the exception of a couple of recent releases like Arkham City, use one of the old half resolution 3D within 2D outputs like side-by-side which is what you're seeing. To get them to work you enable 3D in-game then enable the 3D side-by-side mode on your TV using the TV remote. The TV will then separate the two images, upscale them, and display them correctly for 3D.
