LG Optimus 3D receives 3D game converter

Going 3D (stereoscopic 3D, that is) seems to be the in thing these days – first we have 3D TVs to help usher in 3D movies to the living room, nearly every other movie that appears on the silver screen today also sports a 3D version in order to rake in more moolah, and even gaming has taken the 3D route – see the Nintendo 3DS as well as 3D-capable titles on a PC and the console platform? Heck, even stereoscopic 3D has arrived on the world of smartphones now, with the LG Optimus 3D being one of them.

I’ve tried out some native 3D games on the LG Optimus 3D recently, and they do look good although my eyes tend to get tired after a while since it requires no glasses to wear, and when you move the handset around during the more frantic moments of gameplay, the viewing angle gets skewed – which is why my eyes need to constantly readjust themselves. Definitely far different from viewing 3D photos on the smartphone, that works brilliantly, but for now we’re talking 3D games on the LG Optimus 3D. If you have some 2D games on it and wondered how it will work in 3D, LG has released a 3D Game Converter app.
