3D gaming coming to PlayStation 3 this summer
In a recent interview, SCEA's Director of Hardware Marketing John Koller gave a few more concrete details about the latter. Unsurprisingly, the capability is being timed to the release of new 3D Sony Bravia televisions in summer of 2010. A first firmware update will take care of the gaming part, while a separate update should enable 3D Blu-ray movie viewing on the console.
Every PS3 from the first generation to the new slim models will be able to take advantage of these features. You can read the short interview at Pocket-lint, where Koller promises to reveal an actual list of games expected to support 3D later on and touches on other topics like storage and the PlayStation Network.

It;s not the same 3d from the 80s, screen refresh rates of 120hz+ make for beautiful imagery with decent glasses that arent color coded red/blue, they actually look like sunglasses and have hd quality imagery, do the research before being an ass will ya |

I'm pretty convinced 3D will eventually stick around... but not until they get rid of the 3D glasses, and actually have REAL 3D on your screen. Until then, each time they'll try, they'll fail. I don't think it's going to disappear from the movie theatres, simply because it a two-hour event only, and we can always enjoy a great 3D experience, just think of Avatar, they can set the bar pretty high in this aspect. Other than that, no way people will want to watch their daily TV shows with these glasses on for hours on end, it's just not realistic or viable. So until it becomes real 3D projection, we won't see this become anything more than a very small niche market. |

Richy2k9 said: hello burty117... i know 3D happened, i had a shutter glass with my Voodoo GFX card, the idea was great but not polished so yes, wasn't good & i got rid of it. you don't seem to know about things, you are sure you know about things. i'm not criticizing you but yet if you re-read your post you'll see that you keep bashing & complaining & forecasting it will not work. come on! it's not sure it will work, but people have choices, the companies will always try to come up with things that seem cool, they spend a lot of money to make more, it's business. no one is forcing you to buy the 3DTVs or use the feature, so why do you complain, as if you would lose something out of it, cheer out dude .. i don't feel like there's a real point to argue. 1 side: 3D lovers, other side: haters so it's like for everything else! cheers! you're absolutely right. loved your reply. |
