Crave Preview: Sony's 3D PlayStation 3: Hands-on photos

I'm one of the ones put off. I don't see 3D tv's taking off any time soon. I was at Fry's Electronics last month and got to check out a 3D monitor. It was not good. It made you sick.

I would hazard a guess and say that current games wouldn't run on it. Most games are using the PS3 as best as the developers can to get the best quality they can, by stamping in a post-processing effect this would cause problems.

An extra piece of hardware seems more likely

What are you talking about @hitthegspot? @Fishy Fingers is stating a good point about future PS3's supporting the 3D technology through software or hardware revision and then you come with that nonsense? XD

But yeah, I agree. These 3D tv's makes me sick. =(

At Fry's they had a 17" PC monitor set up with a 3D version of a WOW type game. You have to put on glasses. It did not look good, it made you sick. I don't know if it was the motion, the glasses, or what, but it was not playable. I hope Sony does it right.

"At the end of 2010, Sony plans to release this 3D Bravia for use with its games console. But over the following two or three years, we were told, it wants to build the picture-processing technology into the PlayStation itself. That way, gamers will be able to enjoy 3D gaming on any high-def telly. Plans to incorporate the system into Blu-ray players, and even Vaio laptops, also exist."

if its built into the ps3 itself It will work with any HDTV!!!!!

I wouldn't mind buying a new HDTV just for this, I have plans for the one I have now to go into my bedroom.

Curious to see how much more these 3D capable Bravias will cost.
Good to see they want to expand this to any t.v instead of just their brand.

from watching 3D TV, or 3D Movies. It has to do with how our eyes focus on real world objects. When you look at an object in the real world your eyes focus on a given point you're looking at, and things behind or in front of that point tend to shift out of focus until you shift your focus onto a new point. The problem with 3D Movies, TV, and in this case games is that the focal point is not dictated by your eyes, but by a camera, be it real or artificial. Thus when the viewer tries to focus on a section of the image that the camera has deemed to be out of focus it could cause eye strain, headaches or even nauseous feelings in some individuals. Many of the studies have also shown that the longer an individual is robbed of their own ability to focus their eyes the higher chance that they may experience these issues. That being said most people typically don't experience issues with films less than 2 hours long, but there is a percentage of people who can't handle it for more than a few minutes.

This technology is allowing you the option to play games in 3D. Not forcing you, if you prefer the "norm" then stick with it. Although I totally agree with the pad, I'm not overly keen on motion controls and if that's the way consoles end up going, my gaming will be done on the PC. Still, they have said the pad wont be going anywhere so I'm not worried.

I witnessed a 3D TV that didn't require glasses in the emerging technologies section; however, it was limited to a 30 degree viewing angle. That being said it was by far the most impressive Non glasses 3D TV I have seen to this date.

Mart:

It's called giving consumers more options. Something many people apparently don't like. If YOU don't want to 3d then don't buy it. Sony is still making normal games so they're not forcing anybody to buy a 3d tv.

they do have 3d capable tv's out already but 1) not many ppl know about it and 2) the ppl that do dont care. waayyy to early for that stuff or too late.

i got a new samsung 52" not too long ago i saw one with the 3d out put (09 model) but it was too expensive i wasnt going over 1300

What the phuck are you talking about too early or too late and don't care. Whatever, the masses of gamers out there would kill to have any game 3d. If your not one of them air then I guess your not a gamer.

bumpy, gtfo with your damn 1 post every 12 hours. what i mean by too late is that many ppl are buying hd tv's now and tv's that have the 3d input are on 09 models ppl are not buying 09 models like they are buying 08 left overs at really good prices.

and it could be too early cause there really isnt sh!t out to use the 3d input thats one of the reasons why i skipped it. i think sony has like 1 game that might use the 3d. i really wanted a tv with 3d but the cost just didnt make much sense for me at the time.. so i will wait till next gen consoles and upgrade when i i can get the last year model..

now scram bumpy...

Your just a bot spining the facts because you know your box can't do 3d let alone 1080p @ 60 fps. Just go and get a ps3 so I don't have to keep tearing you apart.

MGS4 would probably not work since it is not a constant 60 fps. I'm pretty sure that the game has to be 60 fps for the 3d to work properly.
