Gran Turismo 5 Prologue has excellent 3D graphics you say? Pish posh. Try seeing it in RealD 3D. Here's a vid of Sony's booth at CES, where they're previewing their 3D tech for the PlayStation 3. Don't expect images to pop out of your screen now, you'll need to be there in person to wear the dorky glasses to make it work.
At their booth they previewed three different games using the 3D technology: Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, WipEout HD, and Motorstorm: Pacific Rift. Really, all we'll see on Sony's screens are double-vision images - a few rounds of beer has the same effect - so I hope Sony will find a way to bring this to the public soon, even only as a preview, just so we can experience it first-hand. Anyway, what am I babbling on about, here's the video: |

seems interesting, it'd be interesting to see this combined with that motion controller thats been floating around, make for some very cool gameplay.

is a really innovative idea...i mean of course 3D games have been made, but not with pro glasses and HD games...this might be the new "PSN EXPERIENCE"!
(mocking xbox live experience...cuz its retarded.)

» I think it's pretty cool!
If they can pop this tech around mid to end 2k9, and sell the glasses for 20-30$, I'd buy 1 or 2 glasses right away. I really hope they'll do so. I want to see rocks fly away around my house, lol. But best, for sony, would be to sell a new HDTC that can produce that without glasses, and sell those glasses for the "others". Everyone would want to buy the TV! :D
I can just think about how cool a game could be with these. Even for games that doesn't look like it could be usefull, like guitar hero 4. I mean, it would be really cool to see the partitions floating in the air in front of you! Nobody could say, "bah, it's because I'm not in front of the TV", lol. Everybody would see the partitions well (an option only, because it could get annoying).
Or for games like final fantasy 13, with Shiva summoned outside the TV, and going back into the the sake of the game, or not even going back, lol. I'd like to see my characters like I'm in 2050 with holograms, just in from of me, fighting under my control! :D lol
But sony have to make it quick for a change, and pop this in less than 6 months...

Good ideas there, cannot wait for my machine gun on CoD to be shooting and the empty bullet cases falling off of my screen!
Although...$20-$30 for those glasses? I think not. I'm in England and obviously the difference between pounds and dollars has to be taken into account, but still, that much for some plastic glasses? £10...yes (that's $15 according to google)

» Cool Idea!!!
I wonder if it would work with any game? Also it would be cool if they could just make a box that plugs in between the game console and the tv which transforms the signal to the tv to the needed image! So many possibilities!

I hope they are still gonna make it so that you still get the full screen even in splitscreen multiplayer. What I mean is that the pixels are divided in half so that one half of the pixels are first player and the second half are second player and if you wear special glasses you only see your image, but you still have full screen. It was demonstrated at CES last year.

» Yep I remember that.

» I want contact lenses!!
i know it's not likely :( but I nerver was fond of glasses,, I'd pay tip top dollar for a set of contacts that would do this!
still i'll get the glasses. but contacts would be so much more awesome and make the effects seem even yet more realistic.

» they need to support all formats
They need to support all formats sterioscopic, anaglyph (red blue), lcd, vr glasses and 3d tv.
But I do have a feeling it is the TV doing the 3d display because of the type of glasses, polorized glasses like that need a tv with interlaced screens. These tv`s have two screens overlaying each other and the difforent angles are sent to each screen, The glasses make the eyes see the correct left right image producing 3d.
Very difforent to lcd glasses.
But the tech used in the ps3 console would very easy be manipulated to use all formats of 3d technology including old red blue glasses, lcd and vr glasses as well as 3d tv.
I would not want to spen another £1200 uk on another 50' HDtv when cheaper ways are available like I said.
3d paper glasses or lcd. very cheap and very viable to use all formats

Back when i got my ps3 in late febuary, it seemed like a different time, the ps3 was only beginning to pick up steam, it was hard to walk into really any set of forums and show a pro ps3 attitude without being lynch mobed by untold numbers or completely rabid 360 fan boys.
it was so bad, often times i would't even post becuase showing any sign of ps3 support was a promise that you would be attacked.
But since that time, something has happend, more and more ps3 supporters began poping up.
And now i have to admit, it seems like the tables are completely turned, now ps3 support had grown a great deal,
it's nice to be able to come into a set of forums these days and be able to give my opinion and show my support without being attacked.
Perhaps there are just so many of us now, the 360 fan boys simply dont have the number advantage they used to,
or perhaps. maybe, those 360 fanboys of eariler this year simply arent on the forums as much as they used to be because they currently dont have a console as its been sent in for repair. "again"
Either way, it's still nice to be able to say, The 360's Blows. and not get attacked from every corner.

» yea i agree
although i think they still try to attack, except their attacks usually dont make any sense or its the usual crap from 3 yrs ago. remember when ps3 first came out 360 had been out a whole year. so they kept saying that ps3 has no games. 360 was $400 and it was "the cheapest". woth a huge failure rate as well. but now ps3 is 400 and it offers two times what 360 offers, and they still use the same excuses. i am also happy that ps3 didnt lower pricer right away. 360s communtiy is mostly little kids which sux because for a real gamer to go online on call of duty and play against a bunch of 12 yr olds is really anoying. so by lowering their price MS they got all the little kids that watch tv and 360 comercials a cheap system. I think the smart shoppers, true gamers, and people who understand quality made the right choice in ps3. I think sony really understands a customer, and they try to give they buyer evrything they could ask from a game system with a cherry on top.

» Nah you all have it wrong
The glasses are cheap. All they have is polar filaments in a sturdy plastic frame. Those filaments are actually very cheap to produce and have been used very widely for many years to produce eye popping 3-D effects of comic books and television. Basically, what Sony has done, is staggered the display so that each line shows a difference of viewing angle. Each "lens" of the glasses simply recieve only certain wavelengths of light. You really don't need anything special for a TV to do this. It's just a matter of rewriting the video drivers to display 3-D objects based on depth using the staggering effect and the polarization of the filaments. Very simple. Sony isn't demonstrating new technology. They were basically scouting for reactions. Anyone could expect to see some kind of advertising gimmick soon for this. Probably will be released with a game designed to showcase a new videogame trend. Of course, don't lose your glasses... lol.
