We want MORE games on PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 to be in Stereoscopic 3D and have patches made

It is VERY important to sign this petition because stereoscopic 3D technology has basically just begun to crawl for video games, and developers are allowing it to die before it has even had enough time to get on it own feet to walk, let alone to fly.

Videogames look so much more amazing when utilizing Stereoscopic 3D that the games seem to come alive when it is done properly, just as seen in 3D movie theaters, and on BluRay 3D! Movies like Predator are taken from 2D and when converted to 3D PROPERLY, the end result is just as beautiful as Avatar filmed in Native 3D! Videogames are NO DIFFERENT!

Yes, there are some badly made 3D games that make your eyes strain, and give you a migraine. Motorstorm 3D Rift in 100% depth mode is one of them, however, when the 3D is done just right, the game looks so amazing that it feels like a completely different game. The 3D puts you right in the middle of the action, and the effects are simply outstanding as the particle effects come flying out of the screen without any eye strain, and I can play these games for hours and hours at a time without any problems at all. 

The intro to Killzone 3 is an amazing sample of what I am talking about. Other games like Call of Duty BLOPS 1 and 2 in 3D are outstanding, along with the 3D found in the Ratchet and Clank games, (which is why I was so disappointed there was no 3D in Into the Nexus), and games such as Super Stardust HD, Ridge Racer 7 in 3D, Uncharted 3, Resistance 3, Motorstorm Apocalypse, and God of War Collections are so unbelievable, that I can hardly put the controller down! Even eye straining games like 3D Rift can be played at 20% depth, and still feel comfortable enough to play all day without any eye discomfort, and still give enough 3D depth that it makes me WISH the entire game had a patch for it for a full version of Pacific Rift in 3D! Yes, it IS that amazing!

 Gaming in 3D is 100x more fun than playing in regular 2D, and certain games REALLY benefit from it!

Racing games are unbelievable in 3D, making it so much easier to see just how far away the next turn really is, and being able to judge the distance is a breeze in 3D! Just as it is in real life, racing down the street, being able to properly judge the distance from the front of your car to the back of the one in front of you. Playing a racing game in 3D, makes it come to life!

First Person Shooters are also incredible in 3D, since the game is already very life like, using the 3D field provides proper DEPTH so you can really tell how far away the person is that your shooting at, and it really changes the game so much it is hard to even describe. You really have to play it in stereoscopic 3D at least one time to understand, and appreciate how cool it is! Playing in 3D just makes it that much more realistic when flying in a helecopter or racing on water in a ski-jet as found in Call of Duty Advanced Warfare, it makes the game come alive.

Believe it or not, 3D Platformers like Mario and Ratchet and Clank are SO MUCH BETTER in 3D, so you can judge your distance of your jumps from one platform to another! This makes a LOT of the "guessing jumps", into jumps that feel 100% accurate, and that is what platformers are all about! When it was all about Mario being in 2D, you understood how important jumping across the gaps were, but in the 3D polygon realm it is that much harder when played in 2D, as there is supposed to be actual DEPTH there, and when playing a 3D style platformer in 2D mode, it makes the jumps 10x harder to judge the distance, that the game loses a lot of the fun factor due to trial and error that end up killing you half of the time.

People think that just because 3DTVs had a slow start that 3D technology is dead, and that the 3D glasses are all $100 each and nobody can afford them, but, this is 100% FALSE!

Each and every single day 3D technology is IMPROVING on all fronts AND getting CHEAPER by a long shot! I was just able to buy a like NEW 2011 Panasonic Viera Plasma 60" 3DTV 2 weeks ago that came with (2) active 3D Glasses, an HDMI cable, and 10 3D BluRay movies for only $400 on craigs list! I also just now bought (4) sets of PlayStation brand, active 3D Glasses for $7 each with free shipping on ebay! Yes, 3DTVs are getting that cheap, and the picture quality is paramount! Everyone that has seen it in 3D watching Avatar, Predator, or Maleificent, is so amazed at the 3D quality that they immediately want to now get a new 3DTV!

The next time you think 3D technology is dead for television sets, think again. The following article pretty much says it all.

The REASON I am telling you this is just to let you know that we simply cannot afford to stand by and let the developers of our games just give up on 3D technology, or just ignore our pleas! We are buying their games, and we WANT our games to LOOK the best that they can look, and having 3D in them cost developers next to nothing to add into the game. As it is, developers are getting so lazy that they don't even release games in working order anymore on day one, causing us to download day one patches just to get the game to work! The REASON that they are letting 3D just blow right past us, and not incorporate that into the games anymore is just pure laziness on their part! Anything to save them a buck is what they will do, and they will still charge us $60 for each game regardless.

As gamers, we need to take a stand and DEMAND that our favorite games that we pay money for, at least have 3D technology built in them, especially on PlayStation 4 games! The PS4 definitely HAS THE POWER to not only do beautiful looking 3D games in stunning 1080p, just like a 3D BluRay disc movie, (which by the way are not slowing down in production rates AT ALL), but, it also has the disc space for all the 3D 1080p movies that they pre-render for the game as well using 50GB BluRay discs, and BD-RE's now exist and with a simple Firmware PATCH, the PS4 should be able to even play 125GB BluRay discs, so SPACE is NOT an issue here, nor is the hardware!

Please, sign this petition, and make the developers of our games take notice and have them understand that we demand to have the best looking games to be made, IF they want us to keep purchasing them! 3D games look great, and are so much more FUN to play on the PS3 that I have gone out of my way to make sure I own the entire library of games that utilize this new technology, and I KNOW I cannot be the only one out there. If 3D movies on BluRay are here to stay, so should Videogames in 3D! We have the technology to do it right this generation, so lets do it!

Thank you for reading, and I hope you sign the petition, as this is important not just for gamers NOW, but for future gamers as well.

NOTE: FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT DO NOT UNDERSTAND 3D TECHNOLOGY, PLEASE READ BELOW!

3D technology has a misconception that I would like to clear up as much as possible real fast, so I understand that there ARE people that dislike 3D movies or do not like the glasses, so they do NOT want this technology to last. 

This is the part that some people don't understand, and I want to help explain this.

3D technology is just an "option" that is added to a Movie, an HDTV, a BluRay Player, a Videogame, or to a game console, which allows people, (like myself), who like to view their content in 3D, the ability to view these in Stereoscopic 3D.
Please understand that this does NOT in any way make these games, consoles, HDTV sets, or BluRay movies 3D ONLY! If you heavily dislike 3D content, you still have the ability to watch the content that you love in it's 2D format at any time you want to. In fact, all the movies, games, etc.. play in 2D format FIRST, and then they will allow you to choose to view them in 3D if you so wish to do so, as long as you own all the equipment required to view that content in 3D.

So, what I want everyone to understand is, that even if you do not like 3D media, as some really do not like it for many different reasons, it really is not right to not sign the petition just because you don't like 3D, because doing so just takes away the "option" for others to view their favorite content in 3D, because in the end you will still get to view all the content you love in 2D anyway if you want, even if your playing your favorite movie from a 3D BluRay disc version of the movie, on a 3D Full HD 1080p BluRay disc player, on a 1080p 3DTV. Even if you download a 3D version of a movie from the internet, you can still view it in normal 2D on many different media players if you want. So, the nice thing to do is to sign the petition, so that your helping out those that love, and want this 3D option added to their favorite games, and doing so just makes you an all around cool person in my book! :) Thanks for reading!
