Well if a Gamecube is capable of producing 3D images, then why doesn't nintendo just make a gaming Holo-cube projector already?
Yeah... It was called 3D Dinosaur Adventure... I said that...thatstheguy said:Holy crap, I think I remember playing that as a kid. I've forgotten about that game up until this point. Do you remember the name of the game?AvsJoe said:Hmm... didn't know this. Well, 3D's been around for a long ass time so this doesn't really surprise me. Anyone remember the old 3D Dinosaur Adventure computer game from the mid-90's?
I am hoping that this 3D thing is a fad that will pass though. I very much dislike 3D.
They tried but found out that the average living room is way to small to project Hyrule into it so they dropped the ideaIdlemessiah said:Well if a Gamecube is capable of producing 3D images, then why doesn't nintendo just make a gaming Holo-cube projector already?
As a matter of fact, I DO! My little sister was terrified of it, and once when she was sleeping on the couch in the same room the PC was in, we turned it on for a friend. About 10 minutes later, she hopped off the couch and ran upstairs terrified because she realized what we were doing. She couldn't even see the screen from her vantage point.AvsJoe said:Hmm... didn't know this. Well, 3D's been around for a long ass time so this doesn't really surprise me.

Hmm that makes sense. Maybe they'll do it when people get living rooms big enough for Uber-HD tvs. (See one of the old ENN episodes )HuCast said:They tried but found out that the average living room is way to small to project Hyrule into it so they dropped the ideaIdlemessiah said:Well if a Gamecube is capable of producing 3D images, then why doesn't nintendo just make a gaming Holo-cube projector already?
Hahaha... funny. To be fair I got pretty scared the first time I saw the video of the Raptor stalking its prey. Do you remember what originally scared her? Or was she just terrified of dinosaurs period.Signa said:As a matter of fact, I DO!

It was just dinosaurs period. I remember once around the same time that she was watching some princess video from the library, but got called away for something so she paused it and left. I then put in the tape for Jurassic Park right when the lawyer gets eaten by the t-rex. When she came back, she pressed play and instead of happy princesses, she got a screen full of a t-rex. I was laughing so hard I can't even remember her reaction. I'm pretty sure it was far less traumatized than when she was sleeping and we were just minding our own business.AvsJoe said:Hahaha... funny.

Personally, I would be much more impressed if they made movies and games in 5-D, but when they just make it mimick the dimensions all around us it is like reaching par with reality, which isn't very impressive to be honest.will1182 said:Good ol' Gamecube, I love you.
It's kind of bugging me how everything has to be 3D these days. You know, where they add IN 3D!! at the end of every trailer? What ever happened to just normal games and movies?
That was pretty cruel but I can't say I haven't done the same to my little sister. She's deathly afraid of tornadoes thanks to a similar prank I pulled involving the movie Twister. To this day I still occasionally freak her out by mimicking the sounds of a cyclone during a storm.Signa said:It was just dinosaurs period.

She's almost 19 now and away at college. Damn, time flies. If I wanted to pull the same stunts though, I could. She HATES Pennywise the Clown from It.
now imagin a nerd flailing his arms at every flower petal floating by.....and they're in Tenuto.headshotcatcher said:Now imagine, motion control, 3d vision AND natal capabilities bonded together..
Lovely, no?
Same things were said about optical disc based games, full motion video, polygonal 3D, and so on. The same kind of shortsighted gamers and critics have decried every major development in gaming history.Volafortis said:3D and motion control are just gimmicks.
