We shuffled into a small room and sat down. In front of us, about half a dozen pairs of glasses and a television were positioned on a table. The television looked not unlike the one you likely have in your living room, save for one important feature: 3D capabilities. Living room 3D is still in its infancy, but there's one man who believes its going to be the future of entertainment. That man happens to be James Cameron, the mastermind behind Avatar. He's taken himself out of Hollywood after completing Titanic, and has spent the time since then waiting for 3D to get where he wanted it. It's there.

In an attempt to keep the inevitable game tie-in as advanced as the film, Ubisoft is bringing 3D technology to home consoles as well. For the systems capable of outputting HDMI (and for those who happen to have 3D capable televisions), James Cameron's Avatar: The Game will allow gamers to experience something unlike anything they have experienced before. Well, or so we were told. This was the information fed to us as we played around with the 3D glasses and saw the game's logo sit idly on the screen. After seeing it in action... yeah, it's pretty freaking wild.

Simply put, the 3D technology is mind-blowing. It's as if the television was several feet deep and everything on screen was physically sitting inside, like some sort of high-tech mobile. In the same way that 3D films look frighteningly real at times, the Avatar game does too, which is amazing for such a new technology. The only issue that pops up from time to time is when the 3D exposes low-resolution textures, which occurs when certain objects pass too closely to the screen. Then again, considering all of the positive aspects, that's a minor gripe.

And the game itself? It looks all right. It was hard to be objective when I was experiencing gaming in such a new unique way. As far as the gameplay elements and importance past 3D it's incredibly hard to judge, and will continue that way until it hits store shelves. It appears to be a competent enough shooter, with the potential to propel itself far past most movie tie-ins. Will it? Who knows. If you have a 3D capable television, though, you really do need to check this out. However, so few people actually have those televisions currently that it's going to a small group that might actually witness the title's true potential.
