I'm not sure whether it was the game (Gran Turismo) or my TV that made 
the 3D bad. My TV is a long way from my PC and both are difficult to 
move so I'm pretty limited to using my PS3 for testing out the 3D. What 
I found was there was very little 3D effect (compared to the 
glasses-free 3D on the 3DS and phones or the tinted glasses) and that 
there was a distractingly large amount of cross-talk between the left 
and right images. It was pretty horrible.

Definitely, although for the game I am most interested in there is a 
huge debate in the forums about whether triple monitors or the rift is 
better. I would be worried I bought the rift, tried to get used to it 
and eventually discovered that trips were still better.
