[QUOTE="spoonman, post: 28191, member: 382"] It's a perfect smooth frame rate either way. :) The PS3 is a very capable machine so there is no compromise. I think a lot of people are getting the wrong idea that when a developer impliments 3D into a game they are forced to drop the frame rate or reduce details, but that's not the case here. Probably the reason you see more games such as the HD remastered games show up in 3D is because either they want to add something special to the package (Ico/SOTC, Sly Cooper, GOW, Ratchet & Clank, etc). But then you see some powerhouse games like Uncharted 3, Resistance 3, Motorstorm Apocalypse, Batman Arkham City, WipeOut HD, and others with with 3D options, so you know that's not the case. I felt the same way. I wasn't sure if I'd use the 3D enough to make it worth the cost, but at $199 I has to bite! And I'm glad I did. It has a great picture (in 2D too). Much better than my Asus and Samsung monitors from 2011. Thanks for the suggestions! I'll definitely be buying more Zen tables now. In fact I'll probably buy them all. The zombies look so cool in 3D in the Plants vs Zombies table. They look like you could pick them up off of the table. I hope this monitor doesn't crap out on me, but if t does I have the old warranty on stand by. I have to admit I'm not a huge fan of wearing 2 pairs of glasses, for visuals like this it's worth it. They do clamp down rather hard too. I wonder if I could buy a more comfortable set and have them work on he PS Display. I don't think of 3D as a fad anymore. People said the same thing about color TV, HDTV, and the Rubik's Cube...well, they were right about the last one. ;) I enjoy some games on the 3DS. Mario Kart 7, and Super Mario 3D Land in particular look very nice. Glasses free 3D is nice idea, but with glasses you don't have to worry about moving your head a little and losing the effect. I'm glad you can dial down the effect on both types. [/QUOTE]
