Time to unplug the PS3, sell it and the vita, and the 3ds, and get a Wii U.

Seems like yet another great update for the Xbox. Disabling notifications during videos is fantastic news, this has pissed me off for a while now. 3D bluray is cool I guess, but I still use my PS3 for BR and gave up on 3d years ago. Really don't care for the online purchasing stuff personally, but the redesigned Friends and activity feeds intrigues me.

3D? Who even gives a shit about this gimmick? Do not need.

Deftones

obviously enough people to keep bitching about it, since microsoft included it.

Matthew Chmiel

That's great, I didn't know that Microsoft's number one priority was how to please you.

As the owner of a 3D television, I'm pleased Microsoft has added this functionality and it should've been there at launch for both the PS4 and Xbox One.

I do.

Rob V

Good to know... but I give a shit.

Trevor

I don't get the 3D haters. It works great on my Samsung and is a nice novelty to watch a 3D film every couple weeks or so. We air pop some popcorn, turn out the lights, and make it a movie theater experience night!

Michael Corvin

Did they resolve the BD playback issues?

fumanstan

Not sure what there is to get, a lot of people just don't care for the effect.

I hate 3D, but some people like it and it doesn't really affect me (unless there's crap like special features only with a 3D Blu-ray release), so for the most part if it makes other people happy, good for them

Liver&Onions

I think he's more voicing the opinion that yeah, 3D isn't for everyone but the haters really step into asshole vegan territory with their public hatred of it. We get it, you don't like to watch 3D for a variety of reasons. But others do.

Note: Not all vegans are assholes, but there are asshole vegans.

fumanstan

In that case, I think it's just backlash given 3D was quickly shoved down our throats

Liver&Onions

How is it shoved down your throats? You always have a choice to watch 3d or not.

fumanstan

Having a choice doesn't mean it wasn't heavily pushed to consumers, the two aren't necessarily related.

Dan

Kind of like that TrueCoat. They put that stuff on at the factory, don't ya know.

edstein

3D Bluray is knda like Kinect games. In a few cases it's really cool but for the most part you don't need it to enjoy the content.

xmiyux

You know, I am right here man. I can see you.

Actually I am safe now. Downgraded to just vegetarian.

And I don't care about 3D. But I don't have any hatred that it is being added.

Matthew Chmiel

Pussy. Go big or go home.

Brack

If I owned a projector that displayed a picture that took up the height of a wall, I'd probably be into 3D at home. Otherwise, even fairly big screen HDTVs that have 3D capability don't seem worth it. I need my field of vision, including peripheral, for it to work for me.

nickdawgy

Clearly you do not have a 3D set.

Liver&Onions

Just because it was pushed didn't mean you had to buy it. You still had the choice.

fumanstan

I never said I had to buy it or didn't have a choice.

I think you're making more of the shoved down throats comment then I intended, which hardly meant a forced purchase. Hence the comment that the two aren't necessarily related.

Liver&Onions

Ah ok, so it's like the forced Gluten Free bullshit we're seeing everywhere, when in reality it's less than 1% of people who have it(real life Celiac), it's still marketed at everyone.

edstein

For 3D gaming I might be interested but 3D movies not interested.
