3D Gaming On Playstation 3 In June 2010? (PS3)

The Playstation 3 could be receiving a firmware update as early as this June, which will include the ability for PS3’s to play 3D games. This will be to coincide with the release of Sony’s new Bravia 3D-Ready TV’s which are set for a release of June 10th in Japan with the price of the 46inch 3D TV set at around 350,000 yen which equates to around £2,500.

But no doubt the price will be higher over here as is the norm, so expect a price of around £3000 for the first 3D ready TV to hit the UK shores. Hopefully they’ll be cheaper than that, but I highly doubt it.

I can’t see this being an instant hit as Sony are pricing the average gamer out of the 3D market as soon as it’s launched, because who the hell as a spare £2500+ laying around the house?

But with the upcoming release of Batman Arkham Asylum: Game of the Year Edition with the option to play it in 3D without a 3D ready TV or the new firmware update, do we really need to splash out on the new higher priced TV’s just yet? They will eventually fall in price, but it might take a couple of years for Sony to benefit from PS3 users playing on 3D Bravia TV’s.
