I don't know about everyone else, but I think it would be great if we can come up with a list of games that are simply not worth installing if you expect to play in S3D. I nominate, Strangelite's Starship Troopers for the one eye only award. Do you know of any games that should be avoided when I go choose a new game?
Current 2D only list. No disrespect is intended to the game developers and this is not intended as a blacklist. This is just to inform people who are in to S3D what to expect when purchasing a video game.
1)Strangelite's Starship Troopers (unconfirmed)
2)Rainbow six (vegas) (confirmed by Scarab)
3)Stronghold Legends (unconfirmed)

Hi Grant!
I think it's great to point out games that need work, and it's imperative that we do it in a positive way. We want game developers to feel positive when they think of MTBS and its members.
If we embarrass them, they may shy away because the negative can outweight the positive. HOWEVER, maybe we can list the games from the point of view of "Great game, and when it is S-3D compatible, I'll play it!"
Open the door to seeking a certification or S-3D workaround patch.
See what you think.

I will try to find a polite way of saying, I was unable to, and have never heard of anyone that could play Strangelite's Starship Troopers in S3D. If a person buys games only to game in 3D, they should avoid this game at this time. I'm not saying it is a bad game; many of my friends loved it when it first came out, but it's not for me if it does not work in 3D. I haven't encountered too many games new or old that just doesn?t work well in 3D or don't work at all. The game developers know the rules; some just choose not to follow them. I agree we should not flame them but it seems to me we can save each other some $$ when we run to Wal-Mart for our fix.

I couldn't get Rainbow six (vegas) to work in S-3d.
To be positive I can say, that I got two pictures, which are needed for S-3d , but they just made the 2d picture to appear in/at another plane. As a reason was suggested in the forum.stereovision that this game has no 3D to render or at least doesn't give the information to the driver...
I'm not completly shure about that, but you could try it out
In Stronghold Legends the same things occour. The great Towers just don't pierce into my eyes...
