PlayStation 3 could get 3D depth slider à la the 3DS

How will sir be having his gimmick today? The devs behind the upcoming Sly Cooper 3D compilation are wisely mulling over the idea of inserting a 3D-adjusting slider to let users decide just how much stereoscopy they want with their Sony-approved gaming. It's argued that this should allow you greater positional flexibility when smacking fools down in three dimensions, as you'll be able to manually toggle the depth of the 3D effect to suit your viewing angle. We were happy to see such an option introduced in the Nintendo 3DS at E3 and would similarly welcome its inclusion on the PS3 -- though that's no foregone conclusion as yet. All we can say for sure right now is that the stuff is adjustable, but it looks like it'll be up to devs to roll their sleeves up and integrate the slider into their games. Hey, it's the summer, not like they've got anything else to do, right?

Nearly all 3D media release in the last century does have parallax adjustement whether its hardware or software base. Im pretty sure you can already adjust parallax on all current 3D games, can anyone confirm? Parallax adjustment (depth adjusment) has been a basic 3D feature for a long time now. Im suprise the author seems to think its out of the ordinary.
