Gaming leads the 3D way

Comment

I don't think that 3D will be the success that developers are hoping for. It seems more of a fad, in regards being in the home. It requires a much higher level of audience engagement and concentration to appreciate the "3D", i think only "early adopters" will invest in this, they will need to improve the 3D functionality significantly for it to become a successful in the home. maybe in 10 years time? However 3D will probably remain as a dominant gimmick in the film industry, for the foreseeable future, acting purely as a cash cow. I am intrigued to see how it does in the gaming industry, as it probably will be very successful, as this could be the only thing that would encourage a larger market to invest in 3D tv's for the home.
