1. There are many different types of 3D and neither PS3 or 360 can do the 120 hz field-sequential 3D. They can't output 120 hz refresh rate...CAN NOT! 2. Both support the 60 Hz checkerboard format that plasma and DLP TVs have been using for a few years now. 3. There are 3 games already available for all 3 systems. Avatar, Gforce and downloadable game. These games have native 3D support built in to the game using the checkerboard or anaglyph. Sony is behind Mitsubishi and Samsung atleast 2 years in adopting 3D. Mitsubishi already has partnership with Nvidia and is oficially supported by the best 3D game drivers (Nvidia 3D vision) and samsung has plasmas that support 3D for sale. Also, 3D TV has been announced by a lot of networks...ESPN being one of them. Their is supposed to start Summer 2010.
Im not raining on the Sony parade here...good for them for finallyg etting on the 3D bandwagon. But they have some serious work to do to be an industry leader at this point... |
Its been at least 3 years they are working on 3D. They could have release their TV by 2008 if they would have wanted (ces 2008 they were already using their TVs to show 3D). They already stated that they are going to release everything at the same time, TV, camera, PS3 firmware update, a couple of games title that can be upgraded to 3D and some 3D movies. They also just finished taking regulation for 3D blue-ray. Finally we have a company that makes 3D simple. Which is a great thing because more people will get in it so there will be more developement on it. Sony are the first one that really push 3D in fixing the current problem behind it, frankly it is worth 2-3 more years of development.
