Underrated 3D games.

[quote="Mocl"]Also Dark Souls - along with the 60fps and resolution patches this game works so well in 3D. Of my 90hour playthrough I'd say at least 70 hours of that was played in 3D.[/quote] I totally agree. 3D does wonders for this game and adds another layer of immersion. Dark Souls even working in 3D is all thanks to the people making the Helix fixes. I've only lurked so far, which is probably 90-95% of the users on this forum anyway. On behalf of us all, thanks for everything.

Another I need to add is QUBE. Quite a bit like Portal, with excellent puzzles. No real story, but looks great in 3D. (However, just ran into glitches with the latest patch. Green ball puzzles can only be done in 2D.)

I think all the puzzle games look awesome in 3D imo. I really should pick up QUBE. Two people recommended it to me and I forgot about it. Portal series [not underrated since well known], quantum conundrum, magrunner are real good in 3D. Magrunner is such a cool idea, but its like my brain cant process the puzzles like I may get stumped for a bit in quantum/portal but I think I had to youtube maybe 1/2 of them. Magrunner I'm constantly stumped. Dunno if I'm only one but its tuff.

Magrunner I'm constantly stumped. Dunno if I'm only one but its tuff.[/quote] The thing about Portal is that they tested the absolute shit out of it. If players didn't notice something they should, they added a bright blinking light to it. If players took too long to figure out how to use X in level 4, they inserted a simpler puzzle about X in level 3 to prepare the player. And so on. The result was a very streamlined and somewhat homogenised experience, with a subtle set of training wheels guiding you the whole way. That's why almost every player in the world, regardless of intelligence, could solve Portal in about 4-6 hours. It seemed that almost no one was much slower or faster than about 4-6 hours. That's kind of amazing for a puzzle game really, and quite an achievement in level design when you think about it. But it also kind of sucks if you want puzzles that will challenge your brain for more than a few minutes each. Magrunner wouldn't have had the money for that degree of level testing. But maybe that's a good thing.

I have to add Majesty 2 to the list. Tried it out this weekend. It looks fantastic with 3DV. Great toyification effects and the graphics overall look colorful. Game is quite fun, with a good sense of humour and good challenges. If you're into RTS games you want to give this a spin (although be aware that the RTS mechanics are quite different from other RTS games).

here is another one: Lord of the Rings: War in the North. with eqzitara fix, the game is pretty much 3D vision ready now. this game looks mediocre or ugly even in its original form (PS2 level dated graphic), but in 3D vision, it looks wonderful, the overall graphic quality is improved tenfold. this is one neat 3d vision trick:)

Just finished Velvet Assassin using eqzitara's fix. Totally, 100%, awesome. Completely underrated game. It's brutally hard on Agent mode, they send you into combat with a single clip of 7 bullets, and a knife. Once you get a feel for it though, it has a terrific style. You do have to wait to watch the guards path before making your move, so it's not good for those with ADD.

The Witcher 2 is incredible in 3D. Defense Grid is another game that I really liked in 3D. Oh, and DMC: Devil May Cry is also really good in 3D.

+1 for defense grid. The others arent really underrated but I definetly agree with defense grid. I wrote about it before buts its on wrong profile though. Use PROTOTYPE profile [rename or nvidia inspector] @bob3b Not gonna lie. I only got 2 stages into Velvet Assassin. Lack of saving is what hurt it for me. I liked the difficulty but it was too punishing for me.

Heh! Well, I can attest that your shader fixes work throughout the entire game. Didn't see any glitches at all, it's better than 3D Vision Ready. Only two rounds means you missed out the last couple of levels where you get to run Violette around in a nightgown, and they change the knife animation to have her stab the nazi's like 15 times. Awesome. If you (or anyone) gets around to it again, you can make it a little easier by using your morphine as a get-out-of-jail-free card. I would use it whenever a sneak failed, knife whoever discovered me, and then back to darkness and safety. If I was out of morphine, and a sneak failed, I could usually headshot them with the pistol and then run back. I found the game to be cruel, but fair. The reviews suggest that the guards are somehow random or easy to pick up on you, but that's not true. If you stay in shadows, just out of reach, they never spot you, even if you are moving while in shadow. If you pop out in the open when one is looking your way, they see you and call an alarm. If their back is turned, you can sneak in the open. All very much what I expected in terms of the AI.

I have been playing Remember Me lately, and omg is this game awesome in 3d. Graphics are top notch, Helix fix makes this a perfect 3d ready experience, the game constantly takes you jumping around buildings with great 3d views of neo paris, and overall at 40% into the game, it's an amazing game, I ignored it since reviews were mixed, but I can't hardly find any issues with it, great story, graphics, combat, a bit too linear but all in all it's a solid 9 for me.
