I was wondering if you can tell the difference when watching half SBS vs full 3d? Anyone with experience watching half sbs and a full 3d bluray on ps3 or something similar?

There is no difference if both files have the same size.
Also the only real full HD 3D is generated by Games using nVidia's GPU.

Frame compatible Side By Side will deliver the same quality or even better if compression ratios are the same or the file size are the same.

But my poor keyboard senior citizen US english is no excuse for your totally ignoring the question I asked.
I have edited by post in hopes that you can understand it better.

I have 3 BluRay3D movies, they're all stereo FullHD (or the cinemascope equivalent) I also have an ATI GPU and I play my games in FullHD 3D on my dual projectors
MPEG4 MVC's 2D+Delta is the real deal and is the most efficient stereo video compresison format to date, if you have a good encoder you will get better quality for the file size than anything else for stereo video.
There is a difference between full and half res side by side, and yes of course it is visible, but the obviousness depends on the quality of the down and upscaling performed as well as the video compression format.
Compression ratios can be used to compare image quality between a source and it's compressed file, but not between compressed files of different sources.
Different sources compressed with the same compression ratios will also have different quality thus cannot be used directly to compare
If both full res and half res files have the same file size, they have different picture quality
With modern encoders, the picture quality and compression ratios are not proportional, so unless you are using extremely low bitrates if the two files have the same file size, the full res picture will look better visually than the half res picture.

My apologies.
Can you break down the question to less complex one.
I have a hard time to provide an answer to such question.

Please explain why 3D games played using Nvidia 3D vision are "true 3D" and movies filmed with IMAX 3D cameras and shown at an IMAX 3D theater maybe but if they are "true 3D and then enocded using MVC(2D+Delta) format on a blu-Ray disk they are not any more?

without any compression in-between the card and monitor.
Encoded movies have reduced resolution due to lossy compression, motion blurring and camera focus blurring.
Additionally 3D movies encoded using MVC 2D + Delta method have reduced texture specularities and reduced or totally removed low contrast details.

Doesn't your statement that "MVC 2D + Delta method have reduced texture specularities and reduced or totally removed low contrast details" depend on the quality of the MVC encoder or is true of all MVC encoders as you imply?

LoL icester,
Video games are not perfect sources, they have lots of shader approximations all over, blurry textures, reduced resolution (shadows and reflections), insufficient geometry details (obvious in close ups), insufficient rendering resolution (visible aliasing even with the best anti-aliasing modes enabled) in order to run the games in real time and most recent games even include motion blur and depth of field effects.
If the picture quality of 3D BluRays with MPEG4 MVC is insufficient for you then may I dare ask your opinion on 2D movies ?
2D BluRay (Mpeg4 AVC) ?
Digital cinema (jpeg2000) ?
Film ?

The console driven "prevgenHD" era is about to end. Now lets hope for MEMS displays.
