He is correct and slighly wrong at the same time.

360 can technically do exact same 3D as PS3. 1080p image - 720p per eye.

But theoretically PS3 can do 2160p - 1080p per eye due to HDMi 1.3 vs 1.2

However, considering that PS3 and 360 struggle to do a game in 1080p...rendering a game 2160p game is impossible for these consoles...unless that game is pong.

So yes, there is no reason why 360 can't do 3D. Microsoft doesn't sell TVs however, so they really have no reason to push the tech.


You seem to know your stuff, are there smaller 3D capable TV's available, like say 22 Inches? How much do they go for and can I also use them as a PC monitor as well as for my PS3. Finally, is it worth getting for the 3D game's the PS3 has coming out? From what I've read and seen in stores, it seem's to be pretty good and I wouldn't mind giving it a go.

Thank's for the help.

There aren't any monitors available which will work with PS3 in 3D out of the box. PS3 is locking out old technology since it requires the new HDMI 1.4 handshake to show 3D on your screen.

Technically an old CRT monitor can do 120 hz and play this 3D stuff, but due to some of the standards introduced, they have locked out pretty much everything that doesn't cost 2000 dollars.

I think if we wait 6 more months, there may be 22-24 inch 3D monitors which are compatible with PS3. However they won't be cheap, as they will need their own set of glasses.

Best bet for 3D gaming is PC. It will cost you 1500 bucks for everything which isn't cheap, but the quality is unmatched...
