Underrated 3D games.
  5 / 6    
Path of Exile. The one game I continually come back to in 3d, and the new expansion for it is released next month. In 2d the perspective seems a little wierd, but I think I recall the developers saying some of them play in 3d so that may explain it cause the game is awesome in this regard. The UI and cursor is at depth, but its a simple matter of playing with the depth and convergence to place the cursor above the characters head, and its near perfect. Great toyification as well, especially the spell effects that come down from the top of the screen,.

Zeno Clash 2. Which is also a very underrated game in general, but I feel like when I first started playing and walked out into the city, that was possibly the most memorable experience I've had yet in 3D, mainly because the game's surrealist style is very much to my tastes.

A great little gem I picked up recently is Evil Dead Regeneration, the reticle that locks on to the enemies are at the correct depth. The only thing I've noticed so far is the 'possession' cam is at an uncomfortable convergence level compared to the rest of the game. I had to hunt down a physical copy of the game, it was a THQ game that unfortunately never made it to Steam(or was pulled?) ... really curious if Bruce Campbell has the rights to it, hell I'd buy it again if it came to Steam. :) [quote="gamergap"]Velvet Assassin HelixMod is not working with Driver newer than 340.xx[/quote]Ugh. I hate when they break stuff before I even get around to playing a game ... anyone look into this? What's the issue with it?

I just tried Velvet Assassin with Windows 7/driver 344.11 using the latest shader overrides and it worked with 3D Vision.

Nope, your right. There's definitely something wrong with the sky.

Probably not many of you tried Uncharted 3 in 3D, but playing it in HMZ-T1 was awesome experience

I messed with Velvet Assassin a bit, to me the shadows and the sky looked ok but there was a bloom effect that was off, that's what was making the sky look off. I tried using a debug dll to mess with the shaders but for some reason the game looks even worse with the debug, the ground was missing completely. Through a little trial and error I did narrow it down to the Lost1 post effect(FX\PostFX\Lost1.pfx) I just renamed it(.dnu.Lost1.pfx) to disable it and it seemed fine after ... didn't really play much though. @mindw0rk I played Uncharted 3 one of the best console games I played in 3D before I moved back to PC for the 3D, another really good one for consoles was Avatar.

Why couldn't they just give us an option to set manual fixed convergence value?.... Also it's a shame there won't be 3d in the ps4 trilogy release.

I bought it because of eqzitara. Otherwise, I probably wouldn't have tried it. [quote="eqzitara"]"This game has totally been forgotten. Not sure why, its still a classic to me. I cant give details but its got one heck of a twist. I think it was a game that suffered alot of confusion because people saw asian setting and assumed JRPG. It plays very similar to Fable"[/quote]
