I didn’t think the PS3 was this powerful but Sony’s latest firmware upgrade, 3.5, enables support for 3D for its games and movies.  I’m surprised Sony released this firmware this soon because not many titles are in 3d.  Maybe they get a comission for every PS3 game/Blu Ray 3D title that’s sold.  There’s a drawback to using the 3D feature though, no lossless sound.  Lossless sound will automatically downgrade to either Dolby Digital or DTS.  Now maybe I’ll get the 3-D version of Avatar whenever that’s coming out.

These are some of the Blu-Ray’s available in 3D:

– Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs

– Coraline

– Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs

– Journey to the Center of the Earth

– Monsters vs. Aliens

PS3 is currently selling for $300 but if you get it through Amazon, you’ll get free shipping and no tax (unless you live in New York)
