Sony conducting “technological investigation” into 3D game integration on PS3

[meteor]

Sony has told Engadget that it is currently investigating the possibility of existing PS3 games being playable in 3D after a software update next year.
Currently “conducting a technological investigation” into the possibility, Sony maintains that there are “no plans for the market launch of this [3D backwards compatibility] at this time.”
According to reports, PS3 is going 3D in 2010, but for titles currently available, Sony is keeping quiet.
3D games on the horizon that are slated for PS3 include Avatar: The Game and some Sony racing titles.

I would like to see some rpgs this way in the future,without the glasses.
What do you guys think of it?:)

Sounds awesome. The glasses they demoed it looked like sunglasses, not those paper red and blue ones. :wtf:

[Lord Of Dumbasses]

Even if I'm a major RPG fan, I wouldn't like to play one in 3D. FF in 3D would be... weird.

But, hell, Silent Hill and Resident Evil would be fucking brilliant on 3D.

[epona_d]

I have astigmatism and 3D tends to give me migraines, so i wouldn't be up for that.

[Wandering Hands]

Would I invest in contacts just for 3D games?

No... No, probably not.

Bring on the good times! I've never watched a movie with 3-D glasses. @_@

As long as I don't have to pay a rediculous price for the glasses, as these companies tend to overprice these products as if they're the first people to ever create them, then sure but as long as it doesnt become something mandatory. Seriously, I'm not paying a premium price for blue and red glasses because they have the Sony fucking name on them.

WOW...if that happends it would be awesome, imagine FFXIII on 3D really cool :)

You can do the glasses by yourself :P You just need to buy red and blue plastic and fix it on some random glasses :P (just joking)

This. I'll be damned if I have to drop a large price for these glasses.

I sure don't hope we're stuck with the red/cyan-shitz, for me it's just a red filled with blue dots mess overlayed on the actual movie. Polarized on the other hand...at a trip to London almost a month ago, I saw a documentary of the ISS in 3D at the Science Museum. I just so wanted to grab that space-glove floating towards me in zero gravity...

Although we do have the LCD shutter glasses technology, where the glasses alternates between turning opaque and transparent corresponting to the screen showing the "left" and "right" images. We could possibly end up with something like this. Nvidia has demonstrated it with PC monitors, although they claim the moni's need their own "3D ready" brand.

Reminds me of when i was a kid and jaws/ jaws 2 was in 3d yea that was a while ago. But honestly it sounds cool , but how about Sony works on just getting MORE good games out first , then we will talk about 3d.

[Neal]

There's shitloads of good games on the PS3.

[Falsate]

Any recommendations besides FPS games?
