Gamasutra – News – Sony: ‘A Lot’ Of SCE Studios Working On Stereoscopic PS3 Games
Technology that portrays 2D images as 3D has been around since 1832 in some shape or form. Today, 3D appears to be back on the upswing in film and games, thanks to new technologies.
Sony is the game console maker putting the most emphasis on 3D. The company has been showing off sample 3D games at event such as this year’s CES and most recently, last week’s Game Developers Conference.
Sony has also said that it plans to update its PlayStation 3 with firmware that will enable 3D gaming. Ian Bickerstaff, senior engineer with Sony Computer Entertainment’s UK-based stereoscopic 3D team, told Gamasutra during GDC that his company is “very optimistic” about 3D gaming on PS3, but “We’re taking a cautious approach.”
“I think [3D gaming uptake is] going to depend on the uptake of 3D televisions,” he said. Sony is planning on releasing 3D-capable Bravia televisions this summer.
