3D Gaming Invades Sundance

James Cameron may not be playing a film at Sundance, but that didn't stop his smash-hit Avatar from stealing the spotlight.  At a private party hosted by Film Utah Magazine, Ubisoft and XBox revealed a sneak peek of the world's first game to be played in 3D. 

The game allows you to travel through the make-believe world of Pandora as you fight off enemies in your Avatar.  You have to wear 3D glasses, but the experience is very cool:

As a bonus, I got take home a pair of dual-purpose sunglasses:  UV protection in the daylight, 3D detection for the big screen.  Pretty neat.
