First 3D PS3 Game coming late 2009!!! - Blu-ray Forum

aphilpott · 04-02-2009, 08:37 PM

Blitz Games has been showcasing its impressive 3D gaming technology at the Games Developers' Conference in San Francisco this month.

TechRadar was treated to an in-depth demo of the technology and we can vouch for two things: firstly, it works; secondly, it works.

In the meantime, Leamington-based Blitz Games has been informing GDC attendees that it will beat Hollywood to the 3D punch.

"While the movie business stumbles over digital format issues, Blitz intends to deliver home console gaming in 3D, and the studio plans to team with TV manufacturers to reach early adopting consumers," reports GamesIndustry.biz.

"We're going to try and beat them, it's a race," said Blitz's CTO, Andrew Oliver, "We'll get our games out before the movies."

"Film company's think they're going to be getting their films out but format wars will delay them. And we'll be there on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360."

Invincible Tiger 3D

TechRadar has already had a brief hands-on with what could well be the first 3D game to be made commercially available later in 2009 – Namco's downloadable XBLA and PSN title Invincible Tiger.

Perhaps the most groundbreaking thing about the beat-'em-up/platformer that is Invincible Tiger – which you can see the first shots from right here – is the fact that the feeling of depth in the game provided by the 3DTV tech is no mere gimmick.

When we played a level of the game, it actually adds considerably to the overall gameplay experience, in that the player has the feeling of greater control over his character when moving him around in all directions. Stay tuned for our in-depth preview of Invincible Tiger shortly.

Blitz's Andrew Oliver informed us that the developer is in talks with both Namco and a number of 3DTV manufacturers about the best ways of bringing the title to market.

i agree.. its gonna be a trend / fad... i dont think 'most' will play in 3d all the time

aphilpott · 04-02-2009, 09:15 PM

i think it's somthing people will get use to.. takes like 10 mins to get use to the 3D... when you think about it besides motion what else can gaming do?? everyone thought the wii was a fad yet it changed the way we think of games... i can see full 1080p 3D with wii like movement..

bageleaterkkjji · 04-02-2009, 09:18 PM

this is at least 15 months old if they talking about a format war

3d is good for movies. but, not for games.

aphilpott · 04-02-2009, 10:02 PM

I havn't tried 3D games i hear the Nvidia setup is pretty nice.. If i had a stella PC i would get it... I just like FPS and sports games and after seeing the NCAA national champ in 3D i can't wait for some COD and madden..

This is not suppose to be the same type of 3D you've been use to (the headache inducing red and blue glasses 3D).

Anyway, the game looks like a much less detailed "Kung-Fu: Fists of Plastic" game.

Pepelutivruski4 · 04-02-2009, 10:48 PM

i was at fry's and they had a setup where you could play any game in 3D, including WoW and although it makes the colors a bit weird and i overlooked that, i thought it was a silly concept to have to have those glasses on to play the game.

no one around could she what the hell was going on, and instead "come over and bring your controller so we can play" would be "come over and bring your controller and find some 3D glasses or you won't be able to tell which way is up"

i'm going to assume this is going to fail, but i'll gladly admit to being wrong in hopes this is done properly, because fact of the matter is that 3D is cool.

what frys was it at in norcal??

Ascended_Saiyan · 04-02-2009, 11:47 PM

The type of games the article is talking about has to be DESIGNED to take advantage of this particular 3D technology. It's not like the old 3D technology where anything is a potential candidate to be made 3D. In other words, it's not like the games in Fry's or pretty much anywhere else outside of CES 09...for now.

That would be tight!

aphilpott · 04-02-2009, 11:52 PM

i c that the company wants to make the game for 360 too?? i didn't think the 360 had the guts to pull off 3D?? could they get a firmware update for 3D DVD?? no doubt 3D blu ray is better but still somthing for the boyz at sony to think about

zweet77 · 04-03-2009, 12:05 AM

This is the future I think its just gonna be few years until it starts getting mass marketed.But yeah motion control and 3-d is the future of gaming.
