[Q] New Evo 3D ad - HTC EVO 3D

So I just saw the new ad on tv for our phone. They made it look like the home screen with the time and weather was in 3D.
HUH??? We can't do that right???

No I don't think so...just a way to reel people in

Its definately not 3d but it does look like they either had the intent to make it 3d or planned for maybe a future upgrade.

I have not sign it and really think I would hate that the 3d is a nice novelty not for an overall experience imo

I played spiderman 3d for an hour at the DMV today. It was awesome. The upgrades make the gamepla fantastic and when the angles rotate to more of a resident evil type, the 3d effect is intense.
I wish there was more content tho that was 3d. Like I wish it had a 3d movie streaming some, or if there was netflix 3d that would be amazing. More games that pushed the gpu in this phone would be nice.
And if devs could get down on the 3d and sense apis after the bootloader is decrypted that would make my day.

You fools!!! Navigating through your honescreens in 3d will be stupid if you don't hold it right.
But just because it can be done is cool but not usable.

Movies and pictures you take, 3D games, 3D Youtube videos, images and videos copied to your phone from other sources (other EVO 3D users for example).

You just have to find the right angle and distance from your face. And when making 3D videos, don't get so close to the object you recording.

This is one of the main drawbacks for 3D whether TV, game console or phone. Just google "3d headache" and you will see many reports and studies on this.
I found that more times than not the easiest way to find the sweet spot is to focus on the background and not the stuff that looks close to you

Any actual 3d apps out yet?

I was wondering if there are any actual 3d apps out yet. Something that actually utilizes 3d technology for our EVO3ds. It is impossible to search for them because so many have 3d graphics.
Thanks guys!

What sort of app did you have in mind?
Not likely gonna happen unless it is an app that only runs in landscape. I don't think most developers want that kind of limit unless there is a benefit to 3D. The only benefit I can see is in movies and gaming.

I got to experience that last night. I was playing the spider man game and it froze up on me. I was able to get out of the game and the home screen was in 3d. Looked really bad IMO.
I would love to see a 3D launcher, I wounder if 3D works in full screen portrait mode. From what i read i dont think so. would be sweet tho.

To tell u the truth, the entire OS in 3D would prolly make me go permanently cross eyed or atleast mildly cockeyed
Not to mention bottles after bottles of Excedrin
but I hope devs find a way to tweak the system for more 3D just as a novelty tho, a type of "just cuz we can" feature. I'm sure our batteries would drain in like 3 hours max.

Most videos work on youtube using 3d some do not, you just have to see which ones do, by the way keep your toggle switch on 3d and look through the youtube app on your phone there should be a 3d logo near it. showing if the video is 3d or not, but the one i posted should work a 100%.

Not much if any 3d for me. Sure its high quality view but tilting device shows its pactically non existant. Seems better then nothing. I think its just how the screen gets that shiny highlights and the the original quality. Not 3d though.

You can watch his video full screen and 720p with the jetVD app (just hit the fullscreen button next to the timeline thingy). You can also download the movie for later uses when your alone haha . I use jetVD because the youtube app doesn't let me watch music videos.

[Game in Market] Angry Bots 3D for HTC Evo 3D

I have not seen anyone mention this app from the market, sorry please dont flame me if its been mentioned.
This game is really a 3D game, not any intructions on how to play since almost all shooting games are the same. The controls are kinda tricky since they are really low and game is kinda laggy. The best part is that it is free and if you dont like it just uninstall it.
Thanks for the heads up.
DL'ing now!
Great game so far hopefully they figure out that there's no way to stop it other than in task manager

I actually think it looked more 3d without the actual 3d update. If you play with 3d enabled...it just doesn't look right.
Ya. Great feel to the game, but it feels far to similar to Alien Swarm online for pc. At least if they copy that game completely, We will have one fun addicting game. If you have not tried alien swarm, it looks very similar, but you play with three others online. Really great game. Even the small amount of 3d games Make the E3D worth every penny!?!
Awesome find, thank you very much.
This game is the preloaded trial game when you download unity, the dev only made it 3d, that's why it has no instructions and has to be force closed, it was only meant to showcase what unity can do, it does look sweet thought

What's so hard to believe? Just because the 3D didn't sell well doesn't mean it's underpowered. Hell, I bet the original Evo 4G can play this just fine too, even without the graphics turned all the way down.
in fact, I'm going to try it right now.
OK, so I was a bit optimistic about not having to turn the graphics all the way down. But still, it's easily playable.
