Gears of War 3 can be played in 3D – So, 33D?

Gears of War 3 is jumping on the 3D bandwagon. According to Epic, “Gears of War 3” uses Darkworks’ TriOviz technology, which is integrated with Unreal Engine 3, for stereoscopic 3D support. All “Gears of War 3″ gameplay and cinematics have S3D support, and this extends to split-screen play as well.” However, playing the game in 3D will result in a loss of some graphical details, as with all games released in 3D. According to an interview with Eurogamer, Rod Fergusson also believes that 3D gaming will be making a huge surge in Xbox games soon. He says:”As you look forward, in the next [Xbox Development Kit] coming out of the Xbox, it’ll have more support for 3D or more higher quality for native support for 3D,” Fergusson said. “Moving forward, the Xbox will be able to take it further.” Undoubtedly, the Unreal Engine developed by Epic will also soon be updated for 3D.

August 16, 2011

Today Eidos and Square Enix released a short trailer for Deus Ex: Human Revolution. The reason it is short of course is because it is likely what you will be seeing when you see a commercial for Deus Ex on your television screen. The very nice background music that the trailer is set to is called “My World” by the music group named Transmission.

In this trailer we see a lot of brief but intense footage of multiple animals fighting and then finally some awesome footage from the game. If this trailer didn’t sell you on the game on its own, then you may need to check your gamer license at the door. Deus Ex: Human Revolution will be released next week on August 23rd for the PlayStation 3, PC, and Xbox 360.

Glossy Xbox 360s won’t be around much longer

August 16, 2011

If you’ve been waiting to buy an Xbox 360 Slim console then you should probably run out and do it now, unless of course you don’t want to have a shiny glossy finish. Today Major Nelson, otherwise known as Larry Hryb has confirmed that Microsoft will be changing their Xbox 360 Slim console finish. Rather than having the standard glossy and shiny finish, the console will now have a matte fish and look similar to previous Xbox 360 Elites.

No reason was given for why they will be changing the finish, as I would much rather prefer the glossy finish instead of matte. Hryb did confirm that future Limited Editions will still retain the glossy finish. The price for the consoles has not changed however and will still cost $299.99 for the 250GM system and $199.99 for the 4GB version.
