Maybe this is what Microsoft has in store for 3-D?

It would explain all the hush-hush about Natal and why we have only seen the "Ball" game so far.  It could also explain the rumored $150 price tag.  Motion controls and 3-D for $150 would be awfully cheap.

I doubt that MS will implement that form of 3-D.  While it is interesting, it requires you to be in constant motion to achieve the effect.  If you simply sat/stood still, the effect would be lost.  So, basically, every single game using it would have to be like Police 911 for it to work.  If every game was like that it would get old fast.

HDMI 1.4 is not a requirement for 3-D.  1.3 is sufficient.  However, every cable and device that the signal passes through must be high speed HDMI compatible.

yes HDMI 1.4 is not needed but what he meant was that SONY for PS3 locked out old 3DTV's with HDMI 1.3

 

and the new HDMI 1.4 WITH BACKWARD COMPATIBLITY will do PS3 3D and all news 3DTV's have HDMI 1.4

 

its just that many of the software upgradtion and thing how 3D data is sent over an HDMI were included in HDMI 1.4 but that can be upgraded by software like PS3 firmware upgrade ithout the wire or PORT on PS3 being HDMI 1.4 and pther Hardware upgrades in HDMI 1.4 weren't needed for 3D.

 

Yes we can still make PS3 do 3D over 3DTV's with HDMI 1.3 port but the data packaging and sending method used by ps3 has been chnaged so hackers will have to work on it.
