Wel im glad that i bought a 200HZ bravia tv august 2009.
Model Number is KDL-40z5500.
So basicly you're guys are saying that i could play 3d movies or games on my screen????

And if so what kind of glasses do i need for this tv?

My TV is 200Hz.

WHAT $200 for a pair of glasses? what are they smoking?

As I read, if you have a 200Hz TV, possibly will do it.. please, the TV is HDMI 1.3 or 1.4?

Hi nightsurge, sorry for the delay, here follows:

http://3dvision-blog.com/about-the-hdmi-1-4-standard-and-the-stereoscopic-3d-support/

comment: "Here comes an interesting question that is related to PlayStation 3 – how will Sony add stereoscopic 3D support for the console that only supports HDMI 1.3? The truth is that even HDMI 1.3 is capable to provide enough bandwidth for 120Hz video output even at 1080p resolution, but the actual problem might be in the console not being capable to support 120 frames per second in Full HD resolution. So it is most likely that stereoscopic 3D gaming on PS3 will start of at 720p resolution, especially if Sony will want their consoles to be able to work on 200/240Hz displays providing enough fps for good experience. Anyway these are still some thoughts about the issue and are not based on official information coming from Sony, so we should still wait a bit more to see what will actually happen. It is also quite possible that the firmware update fore the PS3 that will add the S3D support won’t add support for gaming in stereoscopic 3D for all the already released games and we’ll have to wait for new titles. Another thing that is also still not quite clear regarding the PlayStation 3 is the support for the recently finalized Blu-ray 3D specifications and the upcoming Full HD movies on Blu-ray next year. The PS3 should also be able to play 1080p videos in 3D, but we are yet to see how thing will turn out…"

All others says about launch on USA Summer, news, games, compatibility, etc..:

It'll be on the back of your TV.

I'm well short of 200Hz myself.

Note most TVs have a PAL and NTSC Hz rating (well the US ones will only display the NTSC rating I imagine). Older LCD/Plasma TVs will have 50/60Hz (PAL/NTSC) on the back, year old ones will say 100/120Hz, newer ones will have 200/240Hz or more.

I'm not sure why some are seeing this 200hz refresh rate standard as some sort of diabolical conspiracy to force consumers to buy new displays.

Just like HD media, nobody "forced" anyone to buy anything; it simply became available and if you valued the benefits of the improved picture (and many still insist SD DVDs look "just as good" to their eyes) then you went out and bought a BD or HD-DVD player and possibly a 1080p display if you didn't already have an older HDTV.

The only consumers who seem to react negatively to the release of new technologies and standards are the same ones who don't want to pay out the extra money certain premium features command.

Again, nobody is "forcing" anyone to upgrade or instantly adopt emerging technologies, but some of those who like to have the most current, even if it's just to satisfy their sense of ego to SAY they have the latest and greatest, simply don't like it when what they currently have (often a source of great pride) is no longer considered on the bleeding edge.

But standards stay still for no one when it comes to new tech, and ultimately more people benefit the longer a given technology is available and the more accessible it becomes in price, assuming adoption becomes widespread.

Plasma's do 600Hz.... also some LCD/LED's have 240Hz...

Most premium LCD displays these days are 240hz.

But I think it was only back in 2007 (might have even been 2008 if I remember right) that 120hz was the new "premium" feature that retailers were touting as a reason to upgrade and 240hz LCD HDTV displays weren't even commercially available. So for LCDs, 200+hz is a relatively new standard that still commands a premium price.

Personally, if one was genuinely interested in 3D TV, I'd say just wait until the media actually becomes available. No point in having 3D capable anything if there's next to nothing to watch on it. And certainly not at the initial prices.

I think he got his info a little wrong 120 HZ should be enouph.
