Sure, anything where bullets are flying at you. It'll make it feel like it actually went over your shoulder.
Or shot you in the face...

To an extent it already exists (see above comment) and in FPS's and platformers it's a great idea.
But it could also beawful, just think about the first time you went into X-18 on Stalker, now think about that being even more immersive than it already was. Eep...
There could also be motion sickness issues, believe it or not I've already seen a few people beaining up in cinemas watching 3-D films. The added concentration and severity of motion in games could exacerbate that massively, or cure it as the motions matched input. But on balance it could be a great idea, especially if someone could come up with a filtering software to make old games 3-D as well.

I really despise those glasses you need to wear, so no, I'll stick with current graphics given the choice.
Smell sounds awesome until you realize that the predominant smell in many games would be "charred human flesh".

3d game presentation is nothing new. I had a gfx card with 3d glasses back in 2002 with the GeForce4Ti. You just need a monitor with a seriously high refresh rate (>=100Hz), which is not far off either (I think this has been the restrictive aspect on the technology to date).
I'd expect to see it becoming a standard part of the game in the next year or so. As for the quality - I've never tried it but the glasses aren't too bulky from my experience.
Yes, it is a gimmick - but it's really not that big an implementation issue - you're simply providing two camera views instead of one on the same world. I can't imagine a software house would find that difficult. Of course there's a 50% hit on the level of graphics, but with the latest cards you can still carry it off...Proteus214 said:
