NO 3D Blu-Ray Support for PS3 in Summer Update

Only 3D Game update will be available this summer

Sony’s going to release their 3D update for the PlayStation 3 this June, but there’s bad news if you were planning on inviting your friends over for a 3D screening of Avatar: This summer’s 3D patch doesn’t apply to blu-ray movies.

Tech Radar noticed the lack of blu-ray support in Sony’s initial 3D update. That doesn’t mean movie buffs are entirely out of luck, however; an additional update should be coming later this year to enable 3D during blu-ray playback.

As for the day-one lineup of 3D PS3 games, expect to see 3D versions of Wipeout HD, Motorstorm: Pacific Rift, PAIN, and Super Stardust HD. Other titles that have either been officially announced or heavilyrumored include Killzone 2, Little Big Planet, and Gran Turismo 5.
