http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalf...-ps3-3d-article Summary: - Games already released will have their resolution and frame rate halved in order to work with 3D. Howmany 1080p, 60 hz games are out on PS3? - Or games will need to have features like split screen thrown out and be heavily optimized (motostorm demo) - This optimization will have to be done by the developer. Howmany developers are going to pour money in to a closed game for 3D optimizing?
In any case, 3D gaming is going to be quite a niche gaming experience to make any market impact. There just won't be many games supporting it... |
Link doesn't work.
I've heard those criticisms before, but considering the games that are going to be 3D at release (WipeoutHD and Motorstorm: PR), those games never took advantage of the SPU's in the first place, or at least not nearly as much as Uncharted 2 etc. I'd like to wait and see how the 3d process works before presuming it's just having to render the image twice - surely there's a more efficient way?
As for whether it is a console seller or not, it's something the 360 and wii do not have and so certianly an advantage in tht way. Sure, you need a 3D ready TV, but I do know a fair few people with 200Hz TV's, and I'm sure it will help sell at least a few consoles in the long run.
Plus 3D bluray. Now that'll really be a big advantage over the competition.
