Nvidia, Epic Announce 3D Added to Unreal Engine
Unreal Engine 3 gets more 3d-ness added to its already existing 3D-osity.
Epic Games today announced at GDC that it has added 3D support to Unreal Engine 3. Yes, it's true that the Unreal Engine is already one that fully account for the third dimension, but the addition that we're talking about today is 3D display with Nvidia's 3D Vision technology.
Today’s announcement means that licensees of Unreal Engine 3 will be able to take full advantage of integrated 3D Vision technology support. Users of the Unreal Development Kit (UDK), a free version of Unreal Engine 3, will also benefit from the addition of 3D Vision support.
Mark Rein, vice president at Epic Games, appeared to be the most excited about this at the time of announcement. "The combination of Unreal Engine 3 and 3D Vision makes already amazing games even more jaw dropping," he said. "If you haven’t seen Unreal Engine 3 in 3D, you won’t believe how realistic it is! We’re excited to offer this technology for free to our licensees and can’t wait to see what people create with it."

Yeah, I tried that goggles that came with the Asus Geforce3 Ti200 and felt sick after 5 minutes of usage.
I like the idea, but please take extra care testing it!
and for anyone wondering, yes at first it does kinda mess with your eyes, but after about 15 min then a brake your eyes/brain are used to it.
Ah yes, the inevitable anti-nVidia troll. Thank you for showing up! Will you be here all week?
I'm just hoping for some 3d certified IPS panels. I really can't handle looking at TN panels anymore.
3D is actually taking off quite a bit, and the technology has improved vastly since the mid 20th century (...70's?). Sony will make the PS3 3D capable in games and Blu-ray through a firmware update this summer, a whole wave of 3D capable televisions and Blu-ray players are about to come out along with HDMI 1.4, and Nvidia is leading the way as well on the PC. And o ya, have seen or heard about Avatar?
Compared to the Unreal 2 Engine, the Unreal 3 engine has sold far less. This just goes to show that Epic has lost focus on what truly matters in making a middle-ware engine. Options that cater to the greatest amount of users.
Anti-Nvidia trolls seem to come to the conversation more when Nvidia brings some thing new to the table than they do when a ATI card comes out lol
However, BC2 has me completely blown away, the 3D models and integration is superb.
Hehe, now all thats left is picking up 2 new fermi cards and another 2 120Hz to complete the picture
Real life is 3D so why do they want to stick with 2D in games/video/...
It is like saying stereo sound is bad and wanting sound in mono!
With this kind of people, we would never have 7.1 sound and we would be stuck with black and white picture.
