Well kids, here is the new episode of Twisted Gamer Radio! On today’s show, we chat about the Tiger Woods/South Park episode fiasco, banter about the Heavy Rain patch that hit, and talk about possibly selling a kid to get a 3D HDTV. Also, we added a completely NEW segment to Twisted Gamer Radio in a piece called “Guess The Game!” This is where we read you the description on the back of a game (leaving out obvious giveaways) and see if you can guess the video game. We’ll give shoutouts to the winners on the next show, just e-mail us or call in with the answers!
- South Park’s jab at Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11
- Sony wants me to sell a kid to get a 3D TV

Avatar really set the 3D revolution down a long and winding path. With 3D HDTV’s hitting store shelves, the PS3 getting a firmware upgrade to support the new technology and every movie coming out requiring those extra glasses, it’s only natural someone would take advantage of the new way of viewing things in your pocket. Enter Nintendo, who announced the 3DS, a new version of the DS that supports 3D without any glasses. Thank Jebus, because walking around playing Mario Kart with 3D glasses would get you beat up faster than anything else you can imagine.
Nintendo seems to have grand dreams of releasing a new version of the DS every year. In this case, I’m going to have to skip. I made the jump to the DSi for the DSiWare service, which hasn’t panned out all that well. Until there is a killer 3D game on the new 3DS, I’m going to wait, even though it will play DS and DSi games (will DSiWare titles transfer?).
It’ll be interesting to see what Nintendo has to say about the 3DS at E3 this year. I’m hoping to get my hands on the device if they have it available.
We know it’s coming eventually, it’s really just a matter of how soon and who it will be that does it. We are privileged every so often to see a 3D movie, and soon 3D commercials on television. All you need is to pick up those goofy 3D glasses and BAM, 3D (maybe it’s a bit more technical than that but you see what I mean). With the next generation-super-systems must come the next generation of graphics, controls, games, genres, and anything else that has been created or improved throughout the course of video game history, and I think 3D graphics is definitely a way they can and will go.
From an article about Sony’s CES keynote:
“When it came to the idea of 3D gaming, Sony was implicit but never explicit. During his keynote, Sony CEO Sir Howard Stringer showed attendees a still from Gran Turismo 5, rendered in 3D. “You’ve never seen the game like that,” he claimed.”
So it seems Sony is trying to break into, or create, this new generation of gaming. NVIDIA has also released 3D glasses that can bring your video games to 3D life. All of this is speculation, but it’s obvious the video game world is going to move in specific directions, and 3D gaming, as well as possibly virtual reality gaming, is definitely, more than likely, on their plate of things they are going to try. So which system, or company will be able to change the gaming community this time? Who knows, but we can always speculate.
