Nvision 2008: Feels good

We've tried 3D glasses and we can tell that this concept looks like something that might take off. You do need a new LCD 120 Hz monitor and 3D glasses, but eventually this does makes your games look better.

You enable these glasses in a driver and you can use a scroller to adjust the depth. We played with it last night and we will write an in-depth article as soon as we find time to do it.

The glasses look cool and you can see our friend, Tim Smalley, from bit tech wearing a pair. It doesn’t make you nauseated, at least not on a short term basis, but I would like to try them for a few hours before making any final conclusion. Behind Tim is the Geforce LAN party at 3:22 A.M. last night and the sight, even at this late hour, was simply great.

At first glimpse, we believe that it might have a huge change for success, as it does make a decent 3D picture out of the game and makes the experience better. The question is just how much these glasses cost and when  they will be available.

We’ve heard that this product will be ready in Q4 2008.
