15-25 3D console games this year says analyst

NewsPosted 10/02/2010 - 9:49am GMT

As many as 50 titles with 3D support to arrive in 2011.

According to Insight Media, between 15 and 25 console games will be released in 2010 supporting 3D, with around twice as many the following year.

A Consumer Electronics Daily reports states: "Insight Media predicted 15-25 console games will be released in 2010 supporting stereoscopic 3D, growing to 35-50 in 2011. [Insight analyst Dale] Maunu also predicted that console gamers will enjoy a fairly consistent 3D experience no matter what 3D compatible TV they use, unlike what computer gamers have found with their monitors."

With Sony making a big push for 3D gaming later this year, and 3D compatible televisions hitting the market, we're sure to see more and more 3D games appearing, but whether or not the adoption rate by developers will be as fast as Maunu suggests remains to be seen.

I dunno, 42" when we got ours was pretty big, now most people have one that size.

While I'm an advocate of big TV's the main market as in the average home user will not go for a 52" TV. I'd have to consider it my 42" looks big in a fairly large living room. For that Niche market it will be amazing I mean I recently saw a 102" TV and that looked amazing but not in the average home.

52" would be decent I reckon. Pretty sure we're getting a new TV for the main living room this year so might wait and see what the deal is with them when they go on release. Especially if the current Sky HD box is the one works with 3D.
