Reviews/Press
(in brackets: the outcome of the reviews as it looked to me (subjective!)
)
International:
-
PC Magazine - I didn't read this one
-
Gamespot Reviews: VFX, i-glasses,
Simuleyes, Canopus Total 3D (The Gamespot Review of the "Canopus
Total 3D" is sickening. It goes like - hey, why not get rid of this useless
3D-glasses to save a few bucks. Maybe Canopus read this review because
the new "Total 3D 128" model comes without glasses-connector.)

CGW Magazine
Sept. 97: Very interesting article
about Shutterglasses and Polarization Screens/Projectors. They also talk
about professional applications and driver standards.

Gamecenter
Review: VRex VRSurfer received 4 of 5 stars (good)
-
Gamecenter
Review: Stereographics SimulEyes received 4 of 5 stars (good) - So
the VRSurfer and the SimulEyes received the exact same rating. I think
they're far from equal. Well, this wasn't a head to head test. The SimulEyes
test is of an older date!
-
Gamecenter
Review: Philips Scuba tested 2 of 5 stars (bad) - O.K. the Gamecenter
guys realized that this product doesn't deliver the good, but they compared
it to other consumer VR devices and forgot to mention that the Scuba lacks
stereo vision.
