Very interesting.. esp the 3d camera for the 360... i'd like to see that done with a single camera... what ever happened to yuh know having 2 eyes for depth perception? will it be wireless cameras set up in a 360 pan around the player? there are too many questions for these speculations... best to just not think about it and wait and see what really plays off.
