3D glassed - what games look best with them?

Just curious which games seem to show off these 3D glasses efx the best.
Suggestions?

I've tried Max Payne, which works ok but there are some visual texture
problems in certain areas that get annoying. The other I've tried is
Comanche4 but that sucks cause I see double of the***pit view info
screens which really messes with my eyes when trying to play the game.

Is there any game out there that works great for 3D glasses?

WWII Fighters
IL2 Sturmovik (Opengl)
Longbow2
Enemy Engaged: Commanche vs. Hokum
Gunship!
Mig Alley
CFS2

All work well with 3d glasses. Some are better than others. I think the best
are WWII Fighters, IL2 and LB2

Porsche Unleashed is fantastic (although it is an older game).  The rollcage
1/2 games are also amazing with the 3d glasses.

One of my favs in 3d is Need for Speed: Porsche Unleashed, incredible
sense of speed with the 3D glasses on.

So these 3d glasses really do work ? I've always wondered how much 3d
perspective they would give. How does it compare to the virtual
reality feeling ...is it like a feeling its everywhere arround you or
does it just give greater depth to a game and you dont feel things are
like touchable when you reach out ? I think its the latter right since
virtual reality is a much different approach the way i see it.

Just curious if those 3d glasses are TRUELYYYYYYY worth the money.

Ah well, i suspect that in 5 years we could be enjoying virtual
reality for real hihihi, with the new terre processors running at
3000+ gigahetz :). Microsoft better start working on a very heavy OS
with loadssssssss of new things coz otherwise the current OS's will be
just way to small for such powerful processors, then again maybe they
already are working on it for years which would be a wise thing to do
(i've seen pictures of very cool 3d desktops they're working on like
yer pc is in a virtual reality world).

Greetz,

Reggie !!!!

My Asus GF2 GTS came with a preset for NFS:PU. I tried to setup a 3d
profile for GPL manually but that didn't really work.. I did get 3D
but also saw some objects double. Oh well, after a couple of hours the
novelty wears off and those heavy 3d-glasses become rather annoying.

The effect is really great, objects seem to pop-out of the screen and
it feels you can look inside the monitor, especially for racing games
and fps games it's really cool. But first of all the glasses are a
pain to wear (at least the glasses that game with my Asus GF2 card),
for a 3d picture your computer has to show 2 pictures at the same
time, so you really have to turn down resolution/graphic options to
maintain a decent framerate, and after more than half an hour your
eyes start to hurt.

So.. it's fun for a while, but definately not worth paying much money
for. It's a gimmick and the novelty wears off soon.

Yup.. we really need those ***helmets for IL2..

I've seen these advertised at Mwave, but the always seem
to be out of stock, for at least about 4 months now.
Questions include:

Any other sources, and are any particular glasses
better than others? I am sensitive about cost.

For the IR style, do the batteries last long
enough to make it worth while, or is it a major
expense just feeding the things?

For the IR style, are a second pair of glasses
without the transmitter available at a significant
savings (or would I just be better off buying
two sets and having a spare IR transmitter)?

My favourites were Nascar Heat and WWII Fighters. You will find lots of
annoyances with those glasses and just about any game. The problem is that
anything that is 2D on the screen will force you focus on a seperate plane
from the 3D. The games need to have everything in 3D graphics to work really
well, including text.

I never managed to make GPL work. Too much non 3D stuff on the screen.

The best racing game I found in 3D was Rally Championship 2000.
Narrow rally stages in the woods look very good. There is a corner on
one of the stages where spectators take pictures in the evening (blitz) and
the result is amazingly "live".
