Had to have one, I got a 23 inch LG cinema model which means same glasses you get at the flicks.

Ok, Ok, already, I'm getting to what it's like now

Movies - Depends on the quality of the effects team, when it's good it comes out of the screen about 8 - 12 inches

Demo material, some ace stuff in that, pictures that show real depth, video that has things right out of the screen

Games - Still testing this, some times you need to run virtual 3D, ageing video card :( but! PES is amazing to play, Black Ops again is great and any driving game is enhanced considerably, I love PES though, and I can't stop kicking the ball out so it flies out of the monitor :p

Am I pleased? yeah I think so, cost me £210 and came with Assassins Creed Brotherhood free.

Whatcha waiting for

I'm waiting for technology I can use.

I have astigmatism in my left eye which makes me susceptible to seeing high frequency flickers, such as those used by current active shutter glasses. I put them on and everything around me starts flickering! I can even see lights flickering sometimes (mostly fluorescent tube style). The Nintendo 3DS also flickers for me.

From what I've seen though (ignoring the flickering), current 3D technology only gives the illusion of depth; it just stacks up a series of flat, 2D panes and gives the panes some depth in comparison to the ones in front and behind it. Much like a child's pop-up book! I see the same at the cinema using the vari-polorised glasses; another pop-up book, but this time a really dark one.

But hey, AC:B is a superb game , enjoy it! I love just standing there, and calling my "posse" to do the dirty work for me! :giggle;

This one is polarised and doesn't use shuttering to get the effect, I know what you mean with the 2D panes on the active 3D, tends to make the TV look deep rather than things pop out of it, this one is somewhere between that and the full blown cinema experience, it doesn't touch the nose like the cinema does but you can reach out and touch the image and find your hand is still way way away from the monitor, there is such a thing as 3D blindness as well where people just can't see the effect of it, probably the brain over compensating causes it, games are as you say though, 2D levels on top of each other but the latest format is 4D which does make things come out of the screen fully, I have a demo of Knights Tale 4D and the effect in that is far better than in older film footage.
