Microsoft to announce 3D plans at E3?

A few industry players have theorized that 3D may take center stage from motion gaming at this year’s E3, but so far, only Sony and Nintendo have been vocal in the playing field. That, however, is about to change.

A few industry players have theorized that 3D may take center stage from motion gaming at this year’s E3, but so far, only Sony and Nintendo have been vocal in the playing field. That, however, is about to change.

Up until now, Microsoft hasn’t been big on 3D talks. Sony has just started their first steps with the 3D patches for their PSN releases, while Nintendo has the 3DS.

According to Blitz Games Studios co-founder Andrew Oliver, Microsoft, too, is readying for the 3D battleground. “3D does take a bit of extra work,” said Oliver at the Westminster eForum in London earlier. “Microsoft are going to be making an announcement about it at some point soon.”

It’s not pretty far-fetched for Microsoft to join the 3D race in this year’s E3, and with purchase intent for motion gaming not doing so hot, E3 2010 might indeed have 3D on the spotlight.
