the same is said for the lowest samsung model, your topic should have said it's there lower spec 3d tv..

If the shitty unplayable model is 2100 dollars, then that means that these things aren't going to be owned by nearly anyone. Who is going to pay 5000 dollars to play 720P games in 3D with reduced graphics?

Sony came out with this too early, and while it may help them in the long term, for now I bet it's a moneysink. People still don't have HDTVs, and it will be years and years before enough people have enough 3D TVs in order to make it worthwhile to invest in a console that takes advantage of them, IF the 3D gimmick even catches on(it probably will, thanks to the 3DS though, and NOT the PS3.

I agree with your entire post. I think 3D is nothing but a gimmick. What does it really add to the experience? I honestly don't think this will really catch on.
