3D Projection Rumoured to be The Revolution

mars soup eel writes "Cube.IGN is reporting that Brooke Burgess (of Broken Saints) has let the proverbial cat out of the bag concerning Nintendo's new Revolution console. The big secret (assuming the rumors are true)? 3D projection." From the article: "At the core of the theory sits how Revolution will display games: through a form of real-time 3D projection. That's right folks, along the lines of a classic 50s monster movie. Nintendo itself has stated that what it plans to use on Revolution isn't all that unique, only that it has never been applied to videogames. Taking that into account, plus recent patents filed by Nintendo, and it doesn't sound all that far fetched, argues Burgess." As always, take this with a grain of salt.

    People who think they know everything really piss off those of us that actually do.

    You mean, the games will be created in Japan and feature people in rubber monster suits?

    Wow...

    It comes from IGN! Surely this is truth.

    Wait. IGN is right on par with supermarket tabloids.

    In other news, Princess Peach is pregnant with Master Chief's child! See page 11!
