Free MMOs and how I rate them. List of MMO that work with 3D Vision
Here is my list of great 3D Vision free MMOs.
Allods Online. I have to say this is a really good mmo, I would say that if Blizzard actually got of their asses and created a meaningful expansion this would be it. I mean if Azeroth had another continent this would be a good representation. It works really well. The skies are somewhat bothersome cause they are set at the wrong depth but it's a really good free mmo. Highly recommend you check it out.
ALGANON. I've played this game for a bit and it's a another good wow clone. I think the artwork for this game is really well done. There's not much of a population but if you are in the mood to check out another good 3D Vision free MMO I would say this is game has no real issues with 3D Vision. Highly recommend game.
DDO. Dungeons and Dragons Online is a another great free MMO. I used to play this a lot. There's tons of quests and dungeons. PUGs are easy to get but if you are in for a quick MMO fix you might be better of with some of the other MMOs. This game requires mostly group play. Yeah you can do single player dungeons but you'll have way more fun with a group. Thing is that some of the dungeons can take hours to finish. Other than that I highly recommend this game.
Lords of the Rings. This game is epic. If you want to get deep into the Tolkien lore than you'll be happy with this game. It uses the same engine as DDO so it works great. There are issues with the sky not showing up correctly but most MMOs have the same problems for some reason. Great game. You'll be playing this game a long, long time. Highly recommended.
Guild Wars. I'm not going to get into game play. You do have to pay for the game but it is F2P. Works great with 3D Vision.
Hellgate Global. Decent game. Hardly play myself. 3D works well.
Entropia Universe. This games has severe ghosting. It runs of the Crytek 2 game. It runs pretty bad on my system. I didn't find it very enjoyable. With some tweaks it is playable.
This a list for free mmos. Of course I'm not going to get into the P2P ones.

No clue why you would limit yourself to the a la carte (I refuse to call them free to play - they simply aren't) MMOs.
City of Heroes is a no-go for 3D Vision. It uses OpenGL graphics. Quite the pity because it's easily the best MMO I've ever seen. It is free to play now.

They aren't free MMOs????
Was thinking of trying City of Heroes but not I'm not. I did try Forsaken World, that didn't work though. Was thinking of trying DC Universe online. Anyone play that???

Of course they aren't free. If they were free, companies wouldn't be making anything even close to a profit. You might be able to play them free for awhile but, if you can keep having fun with a game and not pay anything, then the game company isn't doing its job right and probably won't last very long. People keep going on about how this is some neat, new model but it just isn't. It's "crippleware" and it goes clear back to the Apogee days. What's new is that the marketing department figured out a better name.
City of Heroes doesn't work in 3D but, honestly, it's worth a download just to see the character creation. So many costumes... so many sliders... and you can set the colors on so many powers... I made several characters in my six years of playing. In all that time I saw 2 other players that looked kinda like one of my characters but I never saw an exact match! (Though [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2N3NAWdkOWM]certain people[/url] do have issues. /wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' />)

Well I have to disagree. I've been playing these games and haven't paid a cent so far. Sure I could.... pay for some nice upgrades but I don't play enough to warrant any kind of purchase. I didn't pay a cent for Allods and won't pay a cent for it. I've been having a lot of fun so far. ALGANON didn't pay a cent and still having fun exploring. LOTR I did pay for the game but haven't paid for any items. Probably will pay for the expansion but that's choice.

They aren't F2P. They are only as F2P as a game demo is. TRUE F2P games are still quite rare. League of Legends and Perfect World's games have TRUE F2P schemes, where anything functional can be unlocked through playing, and only cosmetic artwork has to be purchased.
Perfect World also seems to have a strong focus on 3D Vision. Check out Rusty Hearts on Steam. 3D Mouse cursor and everything.

DCU doesn't work well with 3D Vision. Who told you that? I heard the shadows are all messed up.
[/quote]
You're right, shadows are wrong but you can turn them off and other than that and a few things here and there that aren't too annoying, the game is perfectly playable in 3d. I hate a lot more eq2 water or lotro sky, that's the kind of things you cannot fix and make the game unplayable for me.
