Incoming 3-D gaming-M&M




Playstation 3 is one of the first systems to recieve this capability. The update to 3-D is going to be put over the playstation network and you use it as a regular update but may take longer than a few minutes. The data for the update is going to be shown as a firmware update. There are going to be two firmware updates. One is going to bring the ps3 up to the right format and the second firmware update is going to be for the gaming changes. Some of the first 3-D games are going to be MotorStorm 3D Rift, WipEout HD, Killzone 3, and MotorStorm Apocalypse.  Since the ps3 is capable of playing movies they are able to play 3D movies. But not all the 3D formats for movies are going to be able to work on the ps3. Sony said that they are still working out some of the programing kinks and the update for changes should be coming out soon. Even if you have a ps3 that is compatible with 3D you still need to have a 3D tv and the glasses for it to show up in 3D.

  1. These updates go by really fast, and I can't wait until they go all for it and have most (if not all) of their games in 3-D.

  2. While it sounds pretty cool,
    3DGaming is on the brink of being dangerous. What would happen to us if a zombie attacked us in 3D?
    If you think about it, our bodies react to things that aren't even there. We play a competitive game and gain adrenaline, despite the fact that we are only witnessing a screen. People have been known to have trauma from experiences in movies.
    I certainly wouldn't want to have a heart attack because I was shot in the chest ingame.

    Worries aside, this could turn out to be a lot of fun.

  3. This sounds like a great advance for game systems. I don't have a PS3, so i am in waiting for the X-Box 360 3D
