I was on their page today and wondered the same. I've seen remarks on other boards about the use for things like Grand Prix Legends but wondered if anyone uses them for Aces High and if they have a pair how often do you use them? Do you use them all the time or is it just another cool gimmick thats ok to use once in a while?

The 3d glasses from Edimensional are great, for most games.  They have a ratinf system for many games, prolly over a hundred, thats rates on a scale of 1(excellent) to 5(poor).  Their rating of AH is a "2".   Their ratings for Warbirds 2.77 is also "2", so you can get an idea off that.  Personally, I have not had them work to well in WBIII, haven't tried AH either.(don't try baiting me).

Of the games I have, the glasses are absolutly amazing in"

Ghost Recon and Desert Seige
Medal of Honor
GPL (absofrigginglutoy amazing)
Janes WWII Figthters  (the glasses will make you wanna fly it again)
Falcon 4.0, especially sp2
RC simulator
FS2002, but doesn't seem to work well with CFS, waiting for CFS3.


IL-2 wasn't that great, and Ilove that sim.  Was kinda pissed, to much ghosting in the cockpit.  External view, WOW.  Seriously, WWII fighters is just damn amazing.  EVERYTHING is 3d in it, so tracers go 3d, flames, cockpits, clouds, everything.  You'll buy it again just for these glasses.

If you buy them, you will not be dissappointed.  They enhance many games and sims, and you'll be amazed.  Sims and FPSer's really stand out with this peripheral.

Good luck!

Someone made a video of flying a P-51 with a VR headset of some kind (a very spendy one).  It was increadible.

Got LCD shutter glasses that I recieved with my GF3 Ti500 card... Tried AH in the 3D mode it looks FANTASTIC!!! The 3D effect is pretty cool... However it has 1 little drawback...Ehm... You cant hit anything because the 2D gunsight is completely off the perspective so you are shooting all around the targets... So its perfect for offli8ne flying but unusable for online...

Revvin, keep an eye on them, I talked to the guys there and they are working on replacement sights for most games, laser sights that will be 3d and work in place of 2d sights.
