3D video games follow film trend

July 09, 2009 Now video games are following suit, with moves to bring the third dimension home as some of the biggest names in Hollywood work on 3D video games expanding on the stories of their 3D films. Disney Interactive Studios' "G-Force" game for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, based on Jerry Bruckheimer's live action 3D film featuring secret agent guinea pigs, will use Anaglyph 3D, the traditional red and blue glasses from the 1950s 3D craze. Disney is using this same technology on a Wii game due out in fall, "Disney/Pixar's Toy Story Midway Mania," which is based on the Walt Disney World and Disneyland 4D theme park ride and comes out alongside the movie "Toy Story 3D" in October.
