they mentioned this a while ago, if i'm not wrong from the picture it looks like they decided to use the ReadD 3D system and they said it could be given to older PS3's via a firmware update

Am I the only person who doesn't give a tinker's damn about 3D technology in movies or games? It just doesn't impress me. Certainly not enough to buy a new television when I JUST upgraded to HD this year.

hmmmmm, I do remember reading somewhere that (technically speaking) PS3's are infact 3D compatable... besides, it would be a bit stupid to announce the PS4 now, considering they've only just released the Slim.

When I heard of "My Bloody Valentine 3D", I thought, "Didn't 3D die a long time ago?". I guess not.

This is going to suck for me. I already wear glasses and wearing glasses over my glasses is un comfortable and makes me look like a retard.

Did they actually mean the unannounced, yet imminent PlayStation 4?

3d screens are nothing new, if ur willing to play through the nose for it you can enjoy a 3D screen and play any game on the PC with it asuming u got all the other hardware, good graphic cards etc.
for a consol it will be the same u will have to buy an unreasonably expensive TV screen and probally again an unreasonably expencive consol, but come to think of it thinking spec wise i would have though the PS3 would be able to do 3D anyway.
Basicly instead of 1 image being produced 2 are both shown in a different polarised light plane, you then wear glasses that block out the other image so both eyes show different images.
There are probally other days but it is basicly the same 2 images block 1 out

Calling something 3D is very ambiguous. Duke Nukem 3D, for example.
Does this mean it looks like it's coming out of the screen? Frankly, I find those effects poor in films and the like but if I get some of those funky two-tone glasses then I can get behind it.

I reckon it's a rumour as much as a feeler statement to see if consumers are wanting another VIrtual Boy.

I hope SONY doesn't make a PS4 imminently, wouldn't that mean all the longevity statements were balderdash and i'm kinda still waiting for PS3 to hit it's stride.

No Sony! No!

They should be putting backwards compatibility into the PS3, not working on putting 3D technology into the system.

I hope iot is released as a firmware update for current hardware, or at the very most a component that you buy like NATAL and the PlaystaionEye. I think it would be really stupid to launch another SKU or, even worse, a PS4.

i'm fairly sure when they were talking about this last year, they said that current ps3's were compatable with this.

If it uses shutter glasses I don't want it, polarized glasses, maybe.

Gaming already is 3D. Yes, I know, they mean 'off the TV coming AT you" but really. Seems like it will be tacky. If it helps push tech forward, fine, and hell, better they try than not, but I have my doubts.

If you played Braid on that, I think reality itself would implode.

I really hope they don't release it as a new console because i just can't afford that, or a 3-D TV. Hell I can't even afford a HD TV.
