Rumour: Pics show “3D video output” in PS3 debug Firmware 3.20

Quote:Wee’ve landed some pics of a new debug build of PS3’s Firmware, clearly showing a “3D video output” option.

As you can see from the images below, the feature appears to be included in the 3.20 release, which is apparently now in the hands of developers.

There’s been a great deal of talk about 3D games in recent months, with Sony especially being a strong supporter of the tech.

SCEA’s John Koller, speaking at CES in January, said that, “It’s gonna take just a simple firmware update which most people do regularly anyway, and that’s all it’s gonna take to accolade the PS3 to 3D gaming.”

He added: “It’s just a simple firmware update on the hardware.”

Koller did add a caveat, saying, “You will, however, have to have a 3D TV and the glasses to get the full experience and Blu-ray movies in 3D will require a separate firmware update, which will be required by the end of the year”.

Basically, just a TV that will tolerate having a double image of red and blue superimposed on it.

3D Anaglyph, fudge yeah.

Watching 3D movies gives me a bad headache. Unless the 3D done using a new method, I can't play games in 3D.

Sucks for me, I guess.

just reading how 3D works sounds headache inducing.

Maybe if you go 4D you'll be okay :P

Too bad it won't be on home TV (any time soon) and it isn't actually a fourth dimension, lol.

TVs need to have some holographic inward projection, so wee can see 3D without the glasses poo poo :P
