Sony Confirms: "Stereoscopic 3D Package" Free for Previous Owners



Sony has just confirmed that when the PSN network is back up and running, 3D will come along with it, starting tomorrow. A 3D collection of games including Super Stardust HD, WipEout HD, Pain and part of Motorstorm: Pacific Rift will be released to coincide with this. Those who already own these games will have an option to upgrade them for FREE.


The stereoscopic 3D package showcases the power and technology of the PlayStation 3 to everyone. SCEE President Andrew House said that the combination of PS Move and stereoscopic 3D "allows us to create an ever more compelling, realistic and immersive experience."

  2. Who cares give me the ps-move!!!. After all, who cares if you have 3d graphics if you still have 2d/last-gen control like the Duelshock 3.

  3. i agree give me move. Because: 1. control is more important then graphics anyway and like the last guy said we are STILL stuck with a last gen controller (the duelshock) and the move is going move gameplay forward for the BETTER. 2. the move will be cheaper then a 3d tv.

  4. wow, way to complain about the fucking controller xbots

  5. I like to sit on a couch after a long day at work and play my games, I can only do that with a traditional controller. Besides, Dualshock 3 is motion sensitive, pressure sensitive, gives force feedback, is wireless, has built in bluetooth, and is rechargeable... Really not so "last gen."

  6. its the white colored ps3 controller not the 360 one.

  7. Look at the picture. The d-pad is clearly on the left side. Its a PS3 controller. If not, then it's definitely not a 360 controller.

  8. FACE IT, The Duelshock is a last gen controller

    1. Gba carts had tilt control in them and besides that doesn't come close to 3d control like the move can do.

    2. the ps2 had pressure sensitive buttons and triggers.

    3. the gamecube made wireless mainstream with the wave bird. and that doesn't advance gameplay mechanics in anyway

    4. all bluetooth does is help the wireless connection not the gameplay mechanics in anyway

    5. being rechargeable doesn't help gameplay at all.

    6. and to be fair the xbox 360 pad is last gen also. (not trying to be a fanboy about this just trying to make a point.)

    Move is next gen because it brings fundamental gameplay advancements to game control. THATS what makes a controller next gen when compared to others before it.

    Now hope that clears things up. The duelshock 3 is a last-gen controller, no getting around it, even sony pointed that out. And, like alot of other people, i cant wait for move to bring next gen control to the ps3.

  9. How does pointing out how outdated the last gen controllers like the Duelshock 3 are make you an "xbot"?. Like the person above me pointed out the Xbox 360 also has a last gen controller at the moment.

  10. If it's not broke, don't fix it. You people are just tech junkies and can't wait to get your next fix of new tech.

    ReplyDelete
  11. You know what horses arent broke...Are cars just for tech junkies?

    ReplyDelete
  12. Heh, the thing is that last gen controllers ARE broke and people some people just dont seem to realize that. I mean, if they arent broke how come a duelshock 3 cant even match the precision of a mouse???. And if a duelshock isnt broke why cant it offer 3d control?. the Ps-move can offer precise/realistic/1:1,3d control in gaming. And make videogames progress to a point where they really need to be. Videogames are about progression in ALL areas NOT just graphics.

  13. The videogame industry shouldn't stop game controller progress just because of you are too tired after a days work. dont get me wrong, i respect that. but maybe you should watch a movie or something if videogames are beginning to be too much for you. Or, do like i do when i want to do something fun but physical and rest up for a little bit after work or wait till the weekend to play a game with next gen control. Just dont ruin videogames for the rest of us.

    ReplyDelete
  14. The only people i know (adults aswell as children) that prefer the duelshock over the move are just people that are too lazy to move more then their thumbs more more then 10 mins at a time. The rest of us know that this is the future of videogames and its a change for the best.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Yeah because the Wii is so next gen. I mean, look at the awesome power that the Wii posses'. I feel like I'm in the future while I playing it. You guys are all idiots for arguing about the fucking controllers for christ sakes. All of the systems have their pros and cons and I don't think that there is one specific thing over the other that makes a console "next gen". It's a combination of many different things (wireless technology, processing power, network functionality, controller input, etc.) Just because the DS3 can't do 1:1 movement doesn't mean that its last gen. and if I recall correctly the WiiMote doesn't do 1:1 either so you have yet to play with a true next gen controller by your standards.

    And since when does it mean that video games are "too much for you" if you prefer to sit down while playing. Just because some people aren't flailing their arms around like an angry primate doesn't mean that they should quit playing video games. Your logic is very flawed and you should think about what you say before you speak because it makes you look like an idiot. I do agree that innovation leads to better products, but everybody has their own playing style and preferences so who are you to tell them that they are wrong? I own all three consoles and I play the PS3 more but that doesn't mean that I'm lazy because I don't wanna fling my WiiMote all over the place. It all comes down to individual preference. Don't judge other people because of their playing style and don't think that you can force everybody to play the same way you do.

  16. 1. Noone said anything about the wii except you.

    ReplyDelete
  17. 2. Yes the wii has a last gen gpu and cpu and that sucks and brings down the quality of its titles down...but that has NOTHING to do with the controller.

    ReplyDelete
  18. 3. you just about the only one i see auguring. most of the rest of us were having a level headed CONVERSATION about next gen and last gen control before you came along and got butt hurt about it.

    ReplyDelete
  19. 4. None of us said that the ps3 or the xbox 360 AS A WHOLE was last-gen...All we were talking about was the last gen controllers (like the duelshock 3and the xbox 360 controller) and the next gen controllers (like the ps-move and natal) And how much the next gen controller (like ps-move) were going to be and why.

    ReplyDelete
  20. 5. If the 3ds doesnt have a controller that can do 1:1 control that doesnt mean its not next gen....But, on the other hand, if there isnt any improvement to the control over the ds then the control will be last gen.

    ReplyDelete
  21. 7. The standard wii next gen controller can do a version of 1:1 control via the sensor bar if the devs use it right but its not as good as the ps-move. (For proof look up an early wii game called Elebits. It may have been a kids game but it had revolutionary control. too bad that type of control didnt prosper on to mature titles but its the wii so what do you expect.)

    ReplyDelete
  22. 7a. With wii motion+ its gets even more precise. and you dont need to keep it aimed at the bar to be 1:1 in everyway.

    ReplyDelete
  23. 8.If a dev makes a game that uses a next gen controller (like the ps-move for

    example) on a system with true next gen gpu and cpu power (like the ps3). And the

    dev's uses it in a mature games. And make the control in it is truly 1:1 and truly

    realistic and push the next gen controller to its limits and its not just mindless

    flinging and you still dont want to play it because its too much work for you or

    its too hard for you then maybe...next gen controllers/control is too much for you.

    (Kind of obvious. right?.

    ReplyDelete
  24. 9. if a game comes out and its mindless imprecise unrealistic shoveware thats made just to cash in off of KIDS and doesnt put next gen controllers to GOOD use...dont buy it!!!. Simple as that. and then you wont have to worry about flailing your hands around like an "angry primate". after all that will be the software and devs fault not the next gen controllers. After all you dont buy games that dont use last gen controllers in any worthwhile way do you?.

    ReplyDelete
  25. 9a. Look at it this way there have been ps3 and xbox 360 games that have been aimed at kids and failed to make any good use of the next gen graphics and cpu processor...does that mean that we should put down next gen graphics and physics because some dev's make games that dont use the gpu and cpu in any great way?. NO. and should we as sony to put a ps2 gpu and cpu in the ps3 because of that?. no.

    ReplyDelete
  26. 9b. If you have TRULY done your research on ps-move you will know that just by design dev's will almost have to use the ps-move in a 1:1/realistic/precise way. (And its NOT just a wii next gen controller with wiimotion+ for the ps3. do your research).

    ReplyDelete
  27. 9c. just as the many people you seemed to have ignored have pointed out... Sony has stated that they are going to work to push more mature titles with the ps-move that will be aim at adults and will also be used in a 1:1/realsitic way.

    ReplyDelete
  28. 10. That guys logic is sound because as i said before... "If a dev makes a game that uses a next gen controller (like the ps-move for example) on a system with true next gen gpu and cpu power (like the ps3). And the dev's uses it in a mature games. And make the control in it is truly 1:1 and truly realistic and push the next gen controller to its limits and its not just mindless flinging and you still dont want to play it because its too much work for you or its too hard for you then maybe...next gen controllers/control is too much for you. (Kind of obvious. right?.)"

  29. 11. thank you for seeing that innovation makes better products. that was the main point of most of the people on this post. Now just take your own advice and you wont have to go on angry rants like you seemed to here. because your the one thats looking like a hot head and a fool right now. Clam down, relax, and try and see things clearly and add to the conversation rather then causing more confusion among people by acting like a fanboy (Of last gen controllers rather then a consoles).

  30. 12.before you came along the only time people (on both sides) that said someone was wrong was when they got a fact wrong. and just because you have a "playing style" and preference doesnt give you the right to hold back game controller progress and game control progress. I mean, some people (including me) like 2d platformers. Does that mean i or they want all games to only use d-pads and that we want all games to be playing 2d platformers?. No. as i said take your own advice and let progress happen in game control and dont let your fillings be so easily hurt and fly off the handle and be so judgmental.

    ReplyDelete
  31. 13.Well what do you know i also own all 3 game consoles. And guess what? i use the duelshock 3 and the xbox 360 controller. (Its not like just because someone on here supports next gen controllers that they are a fanboy or something.)

    ReplyDelete
  32. 14. Well, dont worry, when the other consoles get a next gen controller you wont have to fling your wiimote all over then place.

    ReplyDelete
  33. 14a. And it looks like there will be more mature games on the ps3 and that they will use the ps-move in a more precise/realistic/1:1 way

    ReplyDelete
  34. 14b. The ps-move/eye can do more and is more precise then the wii's next gen controller.

    ReplyDelete
  35. 15. Even tho everyone that supported next gen controllers said they wanted to play mature games with realistic and 1:1 control you still acted like we supported mindless shovelware with mindless control in them. and all your basing that on is the games on the wii. and arent even given dev's a chance to make great games with the other consoles next gen controllers. so YOUR the one thats judging people and hardware without merit.

    ReplyDelete
  36. 15a. Did you force people to stop using a d-pad? No. Did you stop people from playing 2d platformers? NO. Its not like people who support next gen control and controllers are trying to force anything on you or anyone else. all we are trying to do is try and get you to allow game control and controllers to progress. like YOU said "innovation leads to better products" so take your own advice.

  37. Now HOPEFULLY that cleared things up for you....

  38. Sign me up for move. If other people dont see the benifets of move over the Duelshock 3 then that there problem.

    ReplyDelete
  39. As an Xbox 360 owner i can say that the move looks sweet and as a fps fan i hope that the 360 gets a move like controller. Like someone else pointed out, the move is the closest thing we have as a mouse on the consoles.
