Paris-based Darkworks is wandering the floor at GDC making some pretty big promises. They say their upcoming TriOvis for Games SDK will allow developers to build in 3D support to 2D games. The real benefit would be that it would not require the purchase of a 3D capable display.
Darkworks is saying that all the 3D-ification happens in the software and the special 3D glasses. Apparently, this means those not wearing glasses would see a regular 2D image without the blurring of a 3D image. The technology will be available for PC, PS3 and Xbox 360.
If this proves to be a feasible option, we may see DLC for existing games that enable 3D with the TriOvis system. Darkworks has said that the process of adding TriOvis to an existing game is very simple, taking anywhere from a few days to a week. We are really floored by the possibilities here. Let’s hope this is for real.

Both N Vidia and A T I graphics cards can do anamorphic (red/blue) 3D in games like W orld of W arcraft. Its here, it's now, it's free, and it works (kinda).

I have to say that as of right now technology isn't ready for 3D TV or gaming. It's just not refined enough yet and most games look horrible with 3D glasses on. Maybe in another ten years or so technology will be ready for it.
