3D Gaming is F***ing Amazing

[qwerblim]

I absolutely love my N3DS and I play all my games with the 3D slider turned all the way up. It's really hard to explain how 3D makes a lot of difference in 3DS games. It literally puts "depth" in the gameplay

Out of curiousity, how long did it take to get used to the 3D being always on? I always kept mine off, and now that I've picked it up again, I keep it about 80% on since 100% is still a bit fuzzy at times.

Just imagine it...
Stereoscopic 3D Oculus Rift...
3D FIRST PERSON VIRTUAL REALITY BLOWJOB...
THIS IS WHY TECHNOLOGY HAS BEEN EVOLVING.

I think that 3d gaming is amazing! The first time I bought my 3ds and had to give it up, it was weird going from 3d to 2d. Although my pc had far superior graphics, it felt like I downgraded. It was like playing Crysis 3 for a week and then having to go play duck hunt for a week.

It's kind of funny, but I never had a discomfort phase when I first started viewing 3d content. No headaches, no eye fatigue. I've done 8 hour play sessions on my N3ds without a single problem. ^>^
Im very proud of that! It's a graphical enhancement that some people can't or refuse to enjoy, so in that sense it feels like some kind of exclusive club. ^.^

I actually disagree with popout being cooler than windowed though.
Bravely default is a good example of this.
The layered windowed 3d gives it a cool popup book art style that just ins't the same in 2d.

I agree with you. Just played through Bravely Default and even with the terrible resolution I feel like it's the best looking game I ever played, and I have a $800 PC. Also 3D is so much better for the eyes, it takes a lot longer to get tired.

Well, I'm blind in one eye... I'll never know how it feels to using a 3D device... :/

There is hope!

If not this, then maybe bionic eyes will be a thing.

I have a passive 3D monitor, a New 3DS and an Oculus Rift DK2. I severely pity those that don't enjoy 3D gaming.

On a New 3DS XL: Yes.
On a 3DS: No. Not for extended periods of time.

I need to try this out! I enjoyed Uncharted 3 in 3D, and excited for the newer releases being 3D compatible too!

They def need to get back into 3D games, miss it!

Yesterday I tried out a New 3DS XL with the 3D fully turned on and oh my god! It actually worked! I could clearly see the awesomeness of 3D on a New 3DS.

As such I intend on getting a New 3DS XL but after the prices drop as well as picking up a flashcart to store a ton of games than carry them around. I've pre-ordered DBZ Extreme Butoden as I'm a fan of Dragon Ball but it'll remain unplayed till I get one (the pre-order price seems fairly reasonable and comes with a bonus game + characters).

I always play with my 3D slider on, but... that doesn't mean its the greatest thing, but i do it because its there. It did look awesome for Shin Megami Tensei 4...

I can't wait to get my hands on Project Morpheus and potentially Oculus Rift. I always fantasised about true VR when I was a kid and it's nearly here!

I always keep my 3d slider all the way up on my 3ds. It just feels wrong playing a 3ds in 2d, unless the game doesn't support it. I feel like it adds a clarity that is unique to 3d displays. At least with games that aren't meant to look totally real.

I hate the 3D. Not least of all because it gives me migraines.

Finally got that second 2d-3d converter box! Now I have one for my OUYA and one for my Wii U. Mario Galaxy is a blast in Amber/Blue anaglyph lol! I will say that these boxes do take a ton of tweaking and I wouldn't recommend it for everyone but if you have the cash to blow and like little projects, it's a fun experience.

I bet 3D would be amazing on a first person game. too bad there's no good first person games on 3DS

It is indeed. At least in VR. Alien: Isolation looks pretty great on my Rift, I wasn't too impressed by the game itself though. But it's pretty damn immersive until a cutscene comes up and it's just a flat image in front of you, ruins the illusion.
Minecraft also looks great on it when you're out in the open. I can't wait for VR MMORPGs to appear, they seem like the perfect genre for VR.

I love playing games with the 3D slider all the way up, and it's amazing for the first few minutes, but then I just forget it's there, and notice it only after I move my 3DS slightly
