samsung seem to be at the leading edge of all this... they won show awards for their TV's and for the 3d blu-ray player too.


Actually Sony are at the leading edge of this. Without Sony this new 3d wave wouldnt be happening. 3d has been around for decades but sony have brought the products to market that has enabled it to potentially go mass market. Movie cameras, projectors, blu-ray.

Lol...this again.

Holywood made 3D go mass market, not sony. If Sony didn't have a camera available James cameron would have chosen another 3D capable camera. There are dozens...

3D movies = holywood initiative

3D gaming = Nvidia domination on PC. Second rate scraps on consoles...

3D TVs = Samsung leads the pack

Only win for sony at CES was that PS3 will do 3D blurays. Thats awesome for PS3 owners.



I am sticking with Sony over 3D, they clearly think it is very important, and their TVs have always been great

Well PS3 install base is a pretty good start for people interested in 3D.

That's a big advantage over Samsung and others. However, Sony will need to be able to display this 3D without a new Tv first and foremost.

kinda.  Yeah they have a 3d player, but Sony is no slouch either, they are coming out w/ 3d cameras, a 3d TV channel that will be up on DirecTV soon, and their own 3d- players and home theatre systems  .  

 

A TV channel owned partly by sony would be great, it would give them some inexpensive advertising if nothing else, and they are a movie company as well, so they have the assets to use effectively.

Also, Kowenicki, Sony has a much more diverse product line to support 3d than just a few players and TVs like Sammy.

Projectors + Cameras + players + Network + Home Theatre = not putting all of your eggs in a few products as well as securing patents for these diverse offerings, and since Sony is now becoming an IP company as well as an electronics company, this would fit in with their strategy.

Sony suxxorz, am i right?.

This new 3d craze was instigated by Sony. Without Sony it wouldnt be happening, 3d would still be there but as a sideshow. Bluray is very important to 3d as Sony said as far back as 2006, without it no mass market 3d. Sonys 3d broadcast cameras are regarded as revolutionary. You do know Sony owns one of the big 5 Hollwood studios?. The projectors.That's the core from where everything flows. Just because you hate Sony and are maybe insecure about things doesnt mean you can change history

In 2010 you'l get 3dtv's, blurays, cameras etc from Sony and other electronics giants. On the gaming front i'd expect a big push from them on the ps3.

of course. sony sucks, sony fails at everything, DRM, Betamax, MD. I base all my opinions on cherry picked arguments!



Why is they all nneed 120hz? Why doesnt 60 frames per second is enough? I mean thats 30 frames for each eye, 30fps is enuff in most games.

technically the eye can see more than 80fps, it's just that 30fps is just about the slowest  it can be before we start to notice speed problems.
