Sony hasn’t exactly been coy about positioning the PS3 as a platform for 3D gaming and movies, but now SCEA’s John Koller<\/a> has revealed that multiple 3D firmware updates will arrive on the PS3 by this summer:<\/p>\n

3D is a major part of our initiatives in 2010 and we’re currently developing 3D stereoscopic games to come in conjunction with the launch of Sony’s 3D compatible BRAVIA LCD TV in summer 2010. The amazing thing about the PS3’s technology is that all PS3 units that exist in homes and markets will be able to play 3D stereoscopic games as well as 3D BD movies through separate firmware upgrades – something that other platforms are unable to do. We’ll be announcing actual game titles separately later, but we think that 3D stereoscopic gaming has a ton of potential, particularly in placing consumers within the actual experience.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It’s interesting to note that 3D gaming and 3D Blu-ray will represent separate firmware updates for the PS3, most likely as the 3D Blu-ray update will be focused solely on bringing the PS3 up to the HDMI 1.4 standard<\/a><\/strike> (note: as some have pointed out, the full<\/em> HDMI 1.4 spec is not firmware updatable<\/a>, but Sony is addressing 3D Blu-ray movies—a key component of the update—somehow) while the gaming update will be for, well, whatever Sony is doing with that.
