3D is the big new thing this year, and the PlayStation 3 will support the new dimension later this year through a software update. While that's all well and good, what hasn't been talked about at length is what going 3D could do to performance.
Eurogamer is taking a look at Wipeout HD, which runs in its original form on the PlayStation 3 at 1080p at 60 fps, but in 3D it gets moved to 720p at 30 fps. While the sacrifice in resolution and frame rate may be worth the 3D-ness for Wipeout HD, most games for the PS3 run at 720p. This would lead one to wonder if a current PS3 game running at 720p at 30 fps would become unplayable if it had to take on the task of making things 3D.
