Um.... I have a question guys... How likely will it be that developers are willing to at least render the in-game graphics 4 times?
Think about it, 2 times, one per screen to separate, and 2 per each of those to make them 3D...You will be taking a huge graphical (not to mention frame-rate, etc) hit there, likened to Wii-powered graphics.
Considering most devs (esp FPS) on PS3 games have disabled splitscreem (Resistance 2, Killzone 3, Metal Gear Online) due to not wanteing performance to suffer, what would make them want to degrade the visuals even more, to Wii-like standards?

This won't be 3D. It will be 2D, with 2 different screens on the same TV.
PS3 can do it but resolution will drop by 1/2...

Well I just kinda read the last part of the OP saying "huge news for the future of 3D TVs if implemented"
and given the post above you, I'm not the only one getting that message either... But Geez, Sony dividing their PS3 consumers even more? o.o I mean, now on the box of every game it's gonna say "3D-TV compatible", or "Dual-View compatible", or both... And a tad bit confusing for the average consumer (who doesn't know the difference between HD and widescreen), imo

Yeah, I can see why people may find this confusing. If this story is true, its just a pattent... I don't think Sony will push to have this implemented for a while if at all with the PS3.
Don't forget that PS3 has to process 2 streams of audio at the same time as processing video. One person has to wear headphones etc...
In any case, I can see an adapter for these new 3D TVs which lets you do this with 2 consoles...no matter what the console is in the near future. :) Its really not hard to do. You can already do it on the PC using 2 capture cards...
