3D on current-gen consoles will be "limited"
Speaking with CVG, Ninja Theory co-founder Tameem Antoniades said that the current generation of consoles isn't powerful enough to really have stereoscopic 3D games running on them.
Seeing that only very few people have a 3D TV and new consoles aren't even planned yet, we shouldn't expect any stereoscopic 3D games to hit the stores for a few more years.
"The problem is that to do 3D properly you need to render 60 frames per second, per eye. And at least a 720p resolution [per eye]," said Antoniades during a recent interview with CVG.
"So in essence that's 1080p rendering at 120 frames per second, and the current generation can only process very rudimentary graphics at that spec,"
"I think the technology's limited now, so you won't be able to play stuff that looks like Avatar - the movie - in 3D,"
"Every generation has to be at least five-to-ten times more powerful than the last, so I think we'll get there in the next generation. I think that will be totally revolutionary for games."
