This demo is what you would call 2 and a half dimensions. It's all 2D sprites rendered with an extra depth component. Using Papervision for something like this would simply be overkill.

But I do believe that soon this will evolve into more immersive interfaces. Time will tell. : ) Thanks for the reply!

It's true that nothing has wowed me yet because it simply hasn't been well designed. I wouldn't go so far as to say that we should embrace 3D, but I don't think we should completely turn a blind eye to it either. I think the big trick is going to be how to (subtly) integrate 3D elements into a 2D environment so that everything looks and feels natural, rather than forcing an extra dimension on users.
