I think 3D will be standard next gen, at least i hope it will ^_^

That would be so cool!
3-D indeed is the future.
| stof said: No I don't. Didn't bring the camera, but judging by the hundreds of middle aged men with SLR's and huge lenses. You can probably find a lot of pics on the internet. Yes they're incredibly hot, but stare at their faces for too long and it starts to weird you out. I really hate that the country with the most attractive women in the world also has an obsession with cutting up their faces to look like aliens. |
I'm disappointed in you stof.
just as i thought. parkay is butter.
A bold claim about Korean women.
But then again, there is cuties everywhere.
Glad you enjoyed the cars.

First I am going to get Playstation Move and I think 3D can help a lot to help with realism for this type of gaming in the future. For example playing Ping Pong where the ball goes towards you, stereoscopic 3D can help a lot to make this feel far more realistic. Or for example in one of the demos they showed a demo where you pile up parts in a 3D space, stereoscopic 3D can help a lot with depth perception for a similar puzzle game to better understand the depth. Eventually I hope this tech will get gaming and multi-media (on PS3 or PS4) back to a level I envisioned as pioneered on Amigas. Pioneering using the Amiga for virtual reality gaming (including head/hand motion tracking, stereoscopic 3D, first person gaming including capture the flag / deathmatch, networked multi-player and built-in microphone, etc) (this all at a time before even the very limited Wolfenstein existed, which is often wrongly put forward as a pioneering title): http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=103674 An article from 1991: http://www.hitl.washington.edu/scivw/scivw-ftp/commercial/WIndustries/W.descrip Some snips: "Technology has also become available to provide input to the sense of touch, through pneumatic tactile gloves and force-feedback techniques (eg. the steering wheel on a driving simulator)." "A stereoscopic view of the room was also possible by wearing a head- mounted visor with a rotating shutter, a separate image being presented to each eye on alternate frames of the video image." "Looking at the joy-stick through the visor it appears as a gun. Extending one's arm shows a virtual arm rendered in bright pink polygons." Imagine having to turn your head to look outside your side window in a future Gran Turismo to see the cars driving next to you from inside your car. Imagine sitting in a virtual cinema and watching a Blu-Ray movie on a huge screen with your friend's virtual avatars sitting beside you and sharing thoughts, etc, etc. 8-) |
There is little to nothing that sony is pioneering with the PS3 when it comes to 3D at the moment. As things stand, Nvidia is pushing the 3d tech with 3D surround vision and full 1080p per eye gaming...
The 3D update for the PS3 was there because PS3 doesn't have HDMI 1.4. If it did, the cable would be able to tell the 3D TV which 3D format the game is using. As it doesn't PS3 has to do it by software.
Otherwise making a game 3D is still squarely on the developers shoulders.
It would be a different story if sony decided to provide blanket drivers for...lets say...30-40 PS3 games which are automatically playable in 3D. Nvidia does that with 3D vision and over 400 PC games are playable... But as things are, all they are doing is saying "You can make a 3d game on PS3 that will work on the new 3D TVs."
The funny thing is, since PS3 can technically only do 720p @ 30 frames per eye, even HDMI 1.3 isn't necessary to do this type of 3D...let alone HDMI 1.4. 720p @ 30 hz x2 can be done with HDMI 1.2 on the 360. Thenonly difference is that PS3 will tell the TV which 3d format the game is using(cause of the update) while the 360 will have the user choose "side by side", "checkerboard" or whatever the game supports...
While I appreciate Sony starting the ball on this tech when it comes to consoles and am eager to see Motostorm 2 myself (I already saw Wipeout and it looks ok)...I wouldn't hold my breath for any of that technology that you described. Not from sony in the next while anyways.
pics of babes or it didn't happen
