DIRECTV to air MLB in 3D!

[Jimbo]

I saw a Samsung 3D down at Fry's a few weeks ago and wasn't impressed that much. First, if you're going to have a TV party (Super Bowl or whatever), you're going to need a lot of $100 a pair glasses as they only give you 2 with the set.

Then, I though the 3D effect got in the way of the show. "Hey, look a that arrow zing by me!" rather than the story itself. Maybe after using one of these 3D sets for a while, the 3d effect will just become part of the show (seamless).

At this moment, the only way I would ever consider getting one is if ALL TVs in the future automatically came with 3D built-in.

The one feature I did like on the demo was the ability to turn off 3D and go in 2D mode. To my eye, in 2D, the set was as good as any current HD LCD/LED set out there.

The set I was watching actually had a processor in it to make regular programming look 3 D as well.

Yes, you can turn the 3D on and off as well.

I liked the movie I saw part of, some, it was kinda cool, but not enough to BUY one, particularly to replace my Current TV's.

I can't imagine what it would be like to see an actual Sporting event in 3 D.

Too me it would take away from the game itself.
