Andrew Oliver has told NowGamer that Blitz Tech are looking at how to combine it's new stereoscopic viewing technology with the Xbox 360 motion controller
Develop Conference, Brighton: Industry stalwart Andrew Oliver has been evangelising about the emerging 3D viewing technology ahead of Blitz Games' first stereoscopic game, Invincible Tiger.
The Blitz co-founder and Chief Technology Officer told that NowGamer that 3D in games can go where film's can't: "There’s a lot tricks we can do in games that you couldn’t do in films because films are all pre-rendered, and there are certain assumptions they have to make."
“If you started mixing this with Natal, you'd get absolutely unbelievable 3D”
"Whereas in games we can do a lot of interesting tricks you wouldn’t otherwise be able to do." he said, adding "one of the obvious things would be if you started mixing this with Natal, you’d get absolutely unbelievable 3D. Which we are working on!"
We're certainly open to the possibilities - imagine batting a ball that's been thrown out of your TV with your own hand?
