Nvidia 3d vision discover (3d specs) gaming

Anyone else got them and if so whats it like for you and in which games.

For me it really colour blinds me after i take em off right eye is ok but left eye is colour saturated and its really hard to focus sometimes when using them.

Other than that the 3d effects are quite cool, gta sa is really good the fences, street lights all appear 3d depth, cars and bikes especially too. Really fun.

Games seem to crash a lot when using stereoscopic tho. The driver stops but recovers when out of the game if u can get out of the game.

Crysis with night vision looks really cool in 3d depth.

Sf4, looks ok.

I haven't tried it but the resident evil 5 benchmark is meant to look pretty good

Btw this is the cheap version just cinema glasses type. blue and cyan which are paper and plastic.

I hope this don't become compulsory for any games in my lifetime. I have a squint which gets seriously screwed up by 3D glasses

I want to try this but I can't get hold of the glasses anywhere

ebay for few quid they should do.

Don't use eBay, can't be bothered setting up an account and paypal just for some cardboard glasses...

Go to cinema watch a 3d film then take home the glasses.

That would help if they were the same type of glasses - cinemas are using polarised lenses now, this is the good old fashioned red/cyan glasses.

Anaglyph glasses are revolting. Good for a bit of fun, but not a serious 3D medium to consider for prolonged use. The debatable 3D effect is laced with colour blindness and blurry vision.

I would love to try Nvidias new 3D glasses, but I'll be buggered if I have to buy a new 120Mhz screen for it. Plus my rig would slap me if I tried to run newer games at that speed.

They are indeed. I got some free with Trackmania United. I used them for all of 20 seconds. Awful.
