I feel that the 3D games that are coming out now are not so much and investment for the future, as a "WOW" effect for gamers right now. when i first saw the footage for killzone 3 i was blown back by the graphics. Then i heard that it was going to support 3D, and my mind was effectively blown by the thought of playing such a good looking game in 3D. it will give game developers some much needed experience with building 3D games, and it will fill in a niche that has been primarily empty up to this point. Sony's plan is to build up excitement for 3D games on their system with big blockbuster games to draw in users that had avoided buying a system up to this point. Unfortunately for them 3D tv's are still far too expensive for most people to take the plunge, but the way technology advances the price will drop drastically within the next 5 years. people will buy these games now with the hope that when they do get a 3D tv they will have the promise of playing these great games on them.
p.s. developers are kidding themselfs if they think that most people will own 3D tv within 3 years so soon after the recent price drops of HD tv's. unless prices go below 700$ people are not going to start replacing their 1-2 year old HD tv's.
