@liquidsoap89; I can't afford to put glasses on 10+ people, pop in a movie, and enjoy though. Tuesday movie nights are a big deal around here.

I don't think I'd want to afford to put glasses on even 4 people, pop in a game, and enjoy. As if it wasn't expensive enough just buying four controllers, now I get to buy 4+ pairs of $100 glasses.

Enjoy streaming movies on the 3Ds for the foreseeable future then.

OK, for movies with ten people coming over, watch them in 2D.

For movies in 3D with only a few people, get the glasses. If you're too poor to afford the latest iteration or whatever, just wait a few years and 3D will be cheap when the next inevitable innovation is out.

This isn't that big a deal. 3D is making 2D TVs cheaper, too. Everyone wins.

It's not $2000 for a 3D capable screen. People like you who want to make it LOOK expensive or don't do even five minutes of research say stuff like that. You can just get a 3D ready monitor for a little bit more than a normal one costs of the same size and then just buy the glasses for like $100.

If you are desperate to play everything on a gigantic TV so that everything ends up costing a fortune, that's your problem, not the technology's.

WARNING: 3D will come into your home and rape your family. It will also steal your cookies. 3D is known to look like Santa Claus, but be warned...it isn't!

Games have always had seizure warnings and other health risks addressed either in the game case, manual, or a warning screen. This really isn't anything different.

"such as a pediatrician or eye doctor"

They should have said either "pediatrician or optometrist" or "kid doctor or eye doctor." There's something to be said for consistency.

This is not going to help $ony, parents always remember the bad things first.

3D is pretty easy and breathes life into older games. A new experience (although minor) is still new.

I didn't even read the email. EULAs are always the same:

"Some shit may happen to you if you're eyes or brain ain't 'normal;'don't steal our stuff; don't be an asshole online. Sign it."

Anybody else notice the ToS went into effect on June 29th, but most of us didn't get it until July 7th?
