Japanese PS3 owners to get 3D content next week Sony Japan has announced this week that PlayStation 3 owners will receive the first 3D-enabled games for their console starting on June 10th.
The first games, which will require both a 3D-capable HDTV and special glasses, are Wipeout HD, Super Stardust HD and Pain.

While Wipeout and Stardust will be free upgrades to 3D, Pain will require ¥300 (about $3.25) for the upgrade.

June 10th is the release date for Japan, but Sony says more details on the North Americas and EU launches are upcoming at the E3 event which starts on the 14th.

Any console owner with the 3.30 firmware update will be able to playback the games.

If 3D worked like it did in the theater, then this would be wonderful...go to bestbuy and check out the quality of this 3D...it is not worth buying the glasses if you already have the TV and the bluray player.
