LG Brings Call of Duty to a Whole New Level in 3D
We all know by now that Black Ops II takes place in 2025 where advanced technology and weaponry make it all the more intense – and let’s not forget the robotics and drone warfare that will make this the most advanced Call of Duty title yet. With the option of having 3D enabled it’ll make the experience even more enthralling.
LG offers a comfortable 3D gaming experience like never before. For those of you who have all dabbled into the whole 3D experience will find this transition more than easy. LG CINEMA 3D utilizes polarized technology with lightweight, inexpensive and shutter-free glasses similar to what we’re used to seeing in movie theaters. For ultimate comfort, LG has given us the ability to customize the 3D effect with 3D Depth Control. All LG CINEMA TVs come with six pairs of 3D eye wear. So loosing them or breaking them when mad won’t be a problem at all.
As game developers and storytellers, we want to take advantage of every opportunity to immerse players in the Call of Duty: Black Ops II experience and LG’s 3D technology helps to do just that,” said Mark Lamia, studio head of developer Treyarch. “We are thrilled to team up with LG, which shares this same passion to bring gamers to the edge of their seats with realistic visuals and heart-pounding gameplay. And with LG Dual Play, for the first time ever, two players can each have their own full-screen experience while playing Multiplayer or Zombies split-screen.
LG Dual Play Technology Enhances Side-by-Side Gaming
Probably one of the coolest things that LG is offering is LG Dual Play Technology. When playing split-screen with a friend or family member, don’t you hate how your screen is cut in half, everything is smaller and harder to see? Well, throw those horrid memories out the window! I say this because with LG Dual Play Technology, gamers can see two different full screens at the same time!
Dual Play works when LGs 3D technology is applied to a 2D split-screen. The effect itself is two 2D images projected at the same time. In order to use this features you’ll have to get your hands on Dual Play’s glasses which are sold separately Each pair comes with either two left or two right lenses, so instead of combining those images, the lenses allow only one image for each user. The main goal for all of this is to showcase a full screen for two players. I’m eager to get my hands onto these and give it a shot. One of the coolest small features that makes Dual Play even more valuable is that it’s available on most current consoles and even older consoles as long as split-screen is an option.
Here’s a small list of some of LG’s 3D CINEMA TVs:
LM9600, LM8600, LM7600, LM7200, LM6700, LM6200 and G2.
Now when Call of Duty: Black Ops II comes out are you going to take advantage of the 3D gaming experience? I know I’m going to give it a shot.
