"guys great episode this week. Just wanted to stop by and comment on 3d gaming. I am really getting sick of people saying its a gimmick. How is adding additional pixels to the screen not a gimmick( HD) but adding true depth is? Its just another bump up in visual realism. And since we as humans see in steroscopic , it cant be argued that its a more realistic image. Where it gets gimmiky is the glasses.But this is a point I see missed over and over again in every 3d disscussion. YOU WONT NEED GLASSES in a few years. Its called and "autosteroscopic" display, It exsists now. Its coming to consumers this year. THe price will come down. Once that happens and the movie studios stop jamming 3d marketing in our faces 3d will catch on. 2d imagry is a limitation. Its like seeing the content with one eye closed, its un natrual. I think this is even more true in games. The devs are making 3d worlds and 3d content already but only one digital camera has been filming it. I wanna see thier 3d work in 3d.
Last thing about cost rising due to 3d. That really isnt the case cause like I said all they are doing is adding an addtional camera in the enviorment and rendering it twice( just like split screeen in games EXACT same thing actually). THis shouldnt increase the dev cost very much at all to get that running. Thats for "true 3d" though. THere is also post procesed 3d. Think of it like upsccaling dvds to hd. It looks better but its not true hd. Same thing here. Devs can add in 3d support ( like sony with their upcoming 3d firmwareupdate) buts its just not the same as content with 2 true cameras in the envio"
