Yeah sure, as if 3D TV's aren't expensive enough just yet. XD

Also, I'm 99% sure this will require goggles, again.


I got a 55" Sony 3D LED /w a 3D starter pack (2 pair of glasses, 3D Blu-ray, emitter, high speed HDMI cable) AND a PS3 Slim for $2200. Thats HALF what I paid for my 50" Pioneer LCD 5 years ago.

 

Are they expensive? Sure, but in retrospect they aren't nearly as expensive as large projectors or LCDs when they first came out, and thats even BEFORE you adjust for inflation. After adjustments, they are even cheaper.

 

Besides, I got the entire setup for about the same price as a regular 55" LED (non-3D). Thank god for Best Buy's package deals.

Too bad you'll probably need to get a new one if you want to use this feature. XD

 

And? I had already planned on getting a new one in a few years when 3D further develops. I'll just move my current one upstairs into the living room. No biggie, the family room gets updated with new tech every so often anyway.

Hahaha.

Sure, maybe not a biggie to you, but to most others it will be, obviously.

Indeed ;)

OT: Sounds cool, but I can already imagine extreme eyestrain from that. I do not deal well with 3D.

I was worried about the eyestrain too since I already have strange focusing problems with my right eye.

 

I put the glasses on for the first time and I had strange focusing problems again for a few minutes. After that I was fine but was paying more attention to the glasses than the games and thats what messes with you.

 

I spent probably 10 hours yesterday with some friends sampling 3D games with them like Black Ops, GT5, Motorstorm, and eventually 3D Blu-rays. It really wasn't bad, I didn't notice any eye strain at all, and neither did they. The important thing is to not wear the glasses when you don't need to.

Well, technically this wouldn't be 3-D.  It only allows you to see one of the 2 images that the PS3 sends out, so no 3-D effect.  Each player would be seeing a seperate 2-D image.

@ Cheebee

I'm pretty certain this is using current 3-D tech, so no upgrades would be necessary if you already have the TV, emitter, and glasses.
