During its media briefing at TGS 2010, Sony continued to shift its focus on 3D gaming; a feature it has been pushing since adding 3D support to all PS3s in June.

The console maker revealed 3D Blu-ray movie support would be added to the system's feature-set when it launches firmware 3.50 on September 21. According to the PlayStation Blog, the feature will be available worldwide simultaneously.

In another bit of news from the wild-world of three-dimensions, Sony revealed that the upcoming "cut and take" action title Metal Gear Solid RisingMetal Gear Solid: Rising will support stereoscopic 3D.

Both announcements come on the heels of announced 3D support for the upcoming Ico/Shadow of the Colossus Collection, The Last Guardian and word that both Final Fantasy XIV and Hot Shots Golf 5 would support the feature at launch.

Great news. For all six of you with 3D televisions and way too much money in your pocket.

it may just be bad luck on my part but i've noticed that every time i test out a 3D tv in store the expensive set of glasses are broken. waiting till 3d tvs don't require glasses
