Nvidia 3D Glasses: Good to Go With Latest Games

Hands-on reports from CES are coming in for Nvidia’s GeForce 3D Vision glasses, seemingly with the thumbs up. The GeForce 3D vision uses an IR emitter to communicate between monitor and computer, and the glasses themselves are charged by USB to perform the image processing. When combined with a high frame rate monitor, these stereoscopic specs create depth-of-field illusions to pull you further into the game.  Best of all, popular titles like Left 4 Dead, Call of Duty: World at War and GRID are already supported. The GeForce 3D Vision package costs $199, but you’ll need upwards of $400 more for a compatible display. Sure, that’s a hefty price to pay for a geeky-looking peripheral, but as NVidia’s handlers told CNet, this is hardly a stretch when gamers are willing to rock out on fake plastic musical instruments.
