At this point, it's hard to tell what impact 3D will have at GDC 2010. But at least one studio, Crysis developer Crytek, is prepared to blow out our eyeballs with the latest in stereoscopic crap. In an announcement blasted out earlier this afternoon, Crytek revealed that it's presenting on CreENGINE 3's S-3D capabilities at the show, and will also give a demo for "LiveCreate," the dev solution that allows studios to make a game for all three platforms with a single editor.
Sounds great and all -- we like what we've seen thus far with CryENGINE 3. Granted, the disembodied old man's head plays into our opinion, but we all have our biases, right?

IT'S A LIE.
Are you suggesting that it's two 2Ds duct taped together?
They actually use scotch tape. Budget cuts, y'know?
are you referring specifically to games? Because 3D is rapidly becoming the new standard for action movies, love it or hate it.
3D gaming won't catch on until 120 hz HDTVs are the norm and they develop the hardware for consoles (i think something along those lines was shown off at CDG last year? or maybe more recently). Right now, cryis running in 3D on a pc connected to an HDTV is probably the most visually stunning thing in gaming right now...
God of War devs mentioned going 3D when the hardware became available.
Having just read the recent preview, that would be pretty fucking sweet.
However, this new stereoscopic 3D they're using is looking mighty promising, produces some fantastic results without green and red-ifying the colours and having fairly comofrtable glasses.
Sure it sucks for those watching who aren't wearing the glasses, and sure you need a pretty expensive (so far Sony only that i know of) TV, but when i need a new TV (Gonna be a good few years now) I'll be looking at a 3D capable one for sure.
3D > Motion Control.
