E3 2011: Eyes-on with the Sony PlayStation 3D Display
It may be cheap, but Sony's new 3D HDTV is feature packed.

EVENT COVERAGE
E3 2011
In an effort to make 3D gaming more accessible, Sony has announced the PlayStation 3D Display, a 24" LED LCD 1080p HDTV that will retail for $499.99 when it launches later this year.



At their press event at E3, I had a chance to check out the PlayStation 3D Display in action, and I'm impressed with what I saw.

Price is, of course, one of the biggest hangups consumers have with 3D HDTVs -- if, of course, they like 3D technology at all -- so naturally, a $499.99 3D-enabled display is intriguing. Though the display isn't particularly large, the picture quality was better than I was expecting.

It boasts a 5000:1 contrast ratio, 240Hz refresh rate, and a 176 degree viewing angle, delivered via an edge lit LED display, making gameplay vibrant but not over-saturated.

But of course, the PlayStation 3D Display's major marketing point is it's Two Player Mode, which allows two players to see two separate fullscreen images using stereoscopic active shutter glasses. Instead of having to view a splitscreen image, the PlayStation 3D Display overlays the images on top of each other, but each pair of glasses is synched to only one layer.

The Two Player Mode was effective, though occasionally there would be small, subtle signs of ghosting from the second player's view, but since I was unable to ascertain at what stage of development the prototype I was viewing was, it's hard to say whether or not it will be a persistent issue.

Though the feature garnered cheers from the crowd, Sony was not the first to present this type of technology. At CES 2011, Vizio presented their own version of multiplayer mode, though Sony is likely to have more success popularizing the idea using the PlayStation brand.

not necessarily true 240h. They could be doing the interpoling trick to have 120hz x2, not 240.
If its true 240 and the color, input etc are good, **** YEAH IMA GET ME ONE OF DOEZ

If only it wasn't Sony, it's hard to have faith in them after recent events
