Please get it into your heads, the PS3 is NOT the only console capable of 3D

Everybody round these parts knows that the PC and the 3DS both are also capable of stereoscopic 3D. However, most people here seem to mistakenly believe that the PS3 is the first and only console capable of 3D gaming.

Understand this: this is wrong.
The PS3 is not the first games console to do 3D, nor is it the only one.

The first game console that could display stereoscopic 3D was the NES, with several Square published games that could display stereoscopic 3D.

Games such as Rad Racer and 3-D World Runner, both on the NES, were stereoscopic 3D.

Last generation, the Gamecube was fully 3D compatible. However, it never had a 3D game release, so the 3D compatibility was never exploited.

This generation, all three home consoles are 3D compatible. The Wii retains the Gamecube's 3D compatibility, the Xbox 360 is stereoscopic 3D compatible. It's already gotten the first stereoscopic 3D console game this generation, James Cameron's Avatar, and it's getting another one: Saint's Row Drive By. Finally, the PS3 is, as everybody knows, 3D compatible.

Hopefully, this knowledge shall stop PS3 fanboys from insinuating that the PS3 is the first console that can do 3D, or the only one, and that the future of gaming, in the form of 3D, can only be enjoyed on the PS3, because all of that is utter bullcrap. All three home consoles are 3D compatible, and the only reason we hear so much about the PS3's 3D compatibility is because Sony is giving 3D gaming a huge push, if only to sell their 3DTV's.

I whole heartedly agree with you TC. Too bad that I only prefer the 3DS's stereoscopic 3D since it eliminates my arch nemesis: 3D glasses.

I don't see why is this important anyways, 3D televisions are quite expensive. I doubt that even the 5% of the population of SW have that kind of TV. Miroku32

Um no? only the ps3 can, sorry, you're wrong. The rest aren't powerful enough.

good post, you win a gigar,nice onedelta3074

EDIT: Sarcasm detector broken, sorry.

Exactly. The only reason why we hear so much about Sony, is because they're trying to flog ridiculously expensive TV's, a few years after telling everyone to go HD.Ravensmash

Well TC I'd like to say something too.

Even Though MS and Nintendos CONSOLES (not handheald) already support Sterioscopic 3D they haven't been supporting it, Sony has, Most of there first party is going 3D so if you consider the number of potential 3D games on a home console Sterioscopic 3D is essentially only with the PS3. (of course 3D is a gimmick anyway so why would you care)

Show me a game that has HD graphics as good as killzone 3 with 7.1 surround sound AND motion control all in glorious 3d. Ps3 is the only console that can do these things.ThePsTriple

I'll give you b)...just.

But as for a), I've never seen anyone suggest PS3 is the only console that can do 3D,(which as your title suggest was the reason for this thread).Only that Sony is the only ones pushing this technology.

Maybe you could provide a link? :)

Quite frankly I haven't seen many cows say this at all. So if you guys can show me a couple of threads where more than one or two of the more rabid cows are claiming this, then I would inclined to believe you. I see this as another one of those cases where people are making mountains out of anthills.

Please I've never seen anyone suggest the PS3 is technically the only console that can do 3d,all I've seen is people,quite rightly,stating that Sony is the only one out of the 3 that is pushing and developing this tech on home consoles.

Someone could provide alink proving me wrong of course.
