Am I the only one that doesn't like the idea of 3D for console games?
(1/6) > >>
Hugums:
I have several problems with the idea:

Getting firmware upgrade which can cost money/ time/ energy/ possible loss of data
Purchasing a new 5,000-8,000 dollar 3D TV even though i just got a brand new LCD
Purchasing the games themselves which are about 10-30 dollars more than a standard game
Wearing the 3D glasses which have their own sub problems:
        I can't wear them over my regular glasses
        They look ridiculous
        would be annoying to wear every time you want to play or even watch TV
        They cost 100 dollars or more for each pair
Would damage eyes
Limited support now but will soon be pretty much necessary for full experience

Anyone else not like the idea?

It's basically just a new feature for graphics. Think of it as HDR/Anti-aliasing/High quality.
If your tv/pc can't handle it, then it just won't use it. I'm sure they will have 3D being optional.

3D is the dumbest gimmick for movies, EVER.
For games, I haven't experienced mowing down peds in GTA in 3D, so I'll wait and see.

I agree with both statements.

A 3D image can be projected without the necessity of glasses, to my understanding.

That eliminates about half of your complaints.
