still thinking you dont need Glasses or expensive Displays.

sony has probably the smartest idea for gaming in the future seriously.

Im being honest this is a pretty nice idea.Thats just me tho i think, all im going to say is PSP2 w glasses? altho the power consumption ewww.

And are there TWO PS3's plugged into that tv?

Is this a shot at the nintendo hand held?

So if I understand this image correctly, each person needs their own machine. You have two people playing games (apparently pacman and space invaders) and one person watching a movie. And there are two PS3's and a DVD player hokked up to the TV.

you know killzone 3 wouldnt be easy to see on a tinny sketch

Very interesting idea.

I wonder if it'd work well.

That's totally not going to work.

I dunno. It must be somewhat within the realm of possibility. It's definately an interesting idea.

If it's possible this is can be groundbreaking imo.

So.... Is everyone going to play with headphones on?

I don't think it will. Although you maybe able to see your Game or Movie, you'll still be able to see the other image(s).

Well the images alternate. So everytime an image that isn't intended for your eyes, the glasses will shutter out (both shutters close simultaneously rather than alternately).

Therefore you won't have a chance to see the other person's image. Will it cause some sort of lag? I'm not sure, as I don't understand the technology well enough.

Erm... no... The glasses sync up with the picture you're supposed to see, so you only see the image you're supposed to see, BUT if you take off your glasses, it'll be a garbled mess since your eyes can't single out frames that fast.zero_snake99

I find it hard to believe that this is going to work. I think you'll still be able to see the other images.

Wouldn't it be 1000x timesmore efficient to just put little screen in the glasses themselves? This looks over engineered.

Interesting idea, but a weird time to be introducing it since more and more devs seem to be completely ignoring split screen.bobbetybob

Yeah this look great, we can wear those crowns you get out of christmas crackers too then the image will be complete...

Would probably be cheaper to just buy 3 tvs because this wont be cheap btw.

Why is it that hard to believe? It works the same way as normal 3D TV's instead of showing alternate frames switching from eye to eye it shows alternate frames switching from one persons glasses to another. The only reason this wouldn't work is because the pixel response time is too slow.

Yeah but I still hate wearing glasses so I'm not investing in a 3D TV any time soon.

room is money too. No body has place for 3 40 inch HD TVs. Also it makes more fun to play with your friends site on site talking about the game rather than sitting back on back.

It means you need to own multiple PS3s...

For using one screen to display multiple games personally for each player you do...according to this patent.

well it would help for local competitive multiplayer

local co-op it would end up hurting

as for anything else, like tv? i dunno, would we need headphones or something? the idea is cool anyways

Is this a sign of local multiplayer returning? Geez, I hope not....Elian2530

Another great, innovative idea...looks neat.

The applications apply from local MP games to full on LAN parties using just one screen, incredible.

I have quite a few parties at my house, so I'm pleased if this idea comes to fruition.:P

So we can all come over and have a fat all System Wars rager? Good idea. PARTY AT TY'S HOUSE EVERYONE!!!!!!!!

It's not actually Sony's idea, but it's nice that they're implementing it finally.

well at least they brought their own tvs.

Regardless of this working or not, I think this is a stupid idea seeing how it completly obliterates any social interaction between people while playing games or watching TV together.

nothing in the patent says you can do that with only one console. This seems to be for LAN parties on one screen. Not local multiplayer off the same disk.
