Majesco Announces Wii 3D Shooter

One game I won't be able to play unless it comes with a non-3D mode because of my lazy eye and squint.

It's like stealing veruca cream from a man with no feet.

Please Please will someone wake-up and give us some headtracking games :-/

Look at this gif;


Subtle 3d perspective shifts can give a strong illusion of 3d even without stereography.
Aligning a viewpoint to the exact thing we would see from that angle...moving subtle with our heads twitches and turns...would *really* increase immersion and give us a better depth sense in games.
All you need is a bundle headband and wiimote stand...$5 to make absolute tops.


It would benefit basically all first person games.
Of course, you can have both headtracking and sterograpghy too, which works excellent. (NVidia\'s sterodrivers with Johnley Lee\'s wiimote headtracking demo worked for me but I had to mess about a bit)

I completely agree. The thing about 3D with glasses is that as soon as you move your head, the trick becomes obvious. In real life you can look around things. This is why it's hard to make 3D convincing in a film. It never moves with your eyes, so it gives everything this awkward floating look. Video games have the advantage of being interactive which gives developers the opportunity to incorporate head tracking to simulate depth in a way that's much more useful.

pffft, I've been playing 3D games since the original Doom came out in 1993.

You do know that DooM wasn't a 3d game, it was a 2-d map stretched to give the illusion of perspective. I'm pretty sure Quake was the first game that used a 3d game engine, instead of the raytracing like engines used by DooM and Wolfenstien.
Also, this game is going to be crap. do you know why? Well it's because it's probably going to use the red/blue glasses, and those are terrible for things in motion (except on a Virtual Boy emulator)

It makes you look ridiculous. Really? 3d glasses? They'd probably hurt after a while.
