Pictures from Hollywood sends 3D home

3D videogames will soon be coming to a living room near you!

A spate of summer blockbuster movies has introduced moviegoers to the latest stereoscopic 3D technology. Now videogames are following suit, with moves to bring the third dimension home as some of the biggest names in Hollywood work on 3D games that expand upon the stories of their 3D films.

Disney Interactive Studios’ G-Force game for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, based on Jerry Bruckheimer’s live action 3D film that features secret agent guinea pigs, will use Anaglyph 3D, the traditional red and blue glasses from the 1950s 3D craze. Disney is using this same technology on a Wii game due out next fall, Toy Story Midway Mania, which is based on the Walt Disney World and Disneyland 4D theme park ride and comes out alongside the movie Toy Story 3D in October.

Pushing 3D technology even further, Ubisoft has developed proprietary stereoscopic 3D technology (the clear polarized glasses movie theater patrons receive these days) for James Cameron’s Avatar game. Avatar will be the first Hollywood-licensed game to introduce stereoscopic 3D to gamers.

Unless they come up with an easy to use, non clunky pair of glasses then Im just going to have to miss this “craze.”  I’ve had a few sets of glasses and they were all useless and made the user look terribly stupid.

Anaglyph just doesn’t cut it anymore. It will look stone age when the new 3DTV sets are paired with 3D consoles.
