3D Blu-ray is part of Blu-ray.

Just having some fun Vashetti. Guess that 1.80 update he's hinted will be a doozy lol
*sigh* I'll get the aloe-vera.
On a more serious note, the PS4 is now among the most feature-rich Bluray players on the market, right? It sure loads faster than the standalone players I've seen.
3D support isn't a separately licensed element for bluray hardware, as far as I understand.
You're assuming the same people complaining now are the same complaining then. You'll note a post or so before this one I actually said I was happy to see it.
I'm one of the ones who was complaining about it not having 3-D support (That was one of my big issues and I'll have to say I don't think I was in the majority as it didn't seem many people seemed as annoyed by it).
All in one entertainment devices are #4theplayers, don't you know? Tsk tsk.

Hey, I know the PS4 is still relatively new and hasn't seen a ton of updates yet (I actually have no idea how many of them there has been), but have they all be painless to install? I remember with the PS3 it kind of got to the point where people here would wait for a few brave souls test it out first before downloading.
i doubt that they are "saving" the features... when feature gets developed, tested and ready to go, it will likely be built into next update. That's how it worked so far.
Considering that they both had blu-ray playback from the start, this has been on their list for a long time now.
In any case, it is annoying how some people make a big deal about non-gaming features... while they are cool in general, I think majority of people bought PS4 for gaming and features like patching and game pre-loading are far more important IMHO (and every future feature related to gaming).
Lol, this is so TrueThis is how fans behave in general:
*hangs head in shame*
but i'm mostly like Oliver Twist asking "please sir, can i have some more."
I've always used my manner before the storm. lol

Didn't he claim they were holding back completed features that were in the 1.71 update he saw? lmao

I love that a marketing hashtag can get to so many people.

Eh it's the new console war battlefield. I think in general there's things i want but they're not console breaking or items that drive sales. It is just one area MS is clearly one upping Sony on and being quite open and vocal about their FW plans. Meanwhile Sony drops them out of nowhere Nintendo direct style
Well, that is the purpose of marketing.
We will see once it has been released... so far Eurogamer did the test between the two and found PS4 to be better, Xbox one had some serious issues:
http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/d...-vs-xbox-one-which-is-the-better-media-player
So just because feature is "checked" it does not mean it works great. Overall so far PS3 had superior playback, then PS4 and then XB1.
Of course, PS3's own playback of blu-ray and DVD discs has been updated for years in order to get it to this point.
Yeah it only downloads 1 thing at a time.

3D Bluray support is a headlining feature for a system that still doesn't have Suspend/Resume functionality and a broken share system? Absolute insanity.
Great for the 10 people out there with 3DTVs.
Get it together Sony.

I can't wait for 2.0. I think that's the fw where everything comes together for psp and ps3.

There have been a lot of fixes since then. Avatar didn't crash when we watched it last week for one. 5.1 sound has been fixed. There are still issues with the Xbox One surround sound. I think all of these updates were just part of the "stability updates". Sounds still can lag in 24hz and 60hz still causes motion judder on the Xbox One, where that is not a problem on my PS4. Other than that, they are pretty much the same.
I still think this update is more to do with the upcoming Frozen PS4 Edition than the Xbox One. Sony is giving the option to bundle it with the 3D version. The Frozen Edition does not come with a copy.

"I don't need it so it's not important."
I knew as soon as MS announced support that Sony would quickly follow.
I can play my 3d movies again!
I can't find any flaws with this logic.

The suspend/resume is also broken on the X1.

I'm one of those ten and while I agree with everything else that needs to come down the pike for the PS4, I'm not going complain when one more feature gets added.

Why so serious? Why so angry? Some of us have eagerly been awaiting this feature. Can't wait to watch 3D movies in my room again

Wouldn't be surprised if they had this working for a while but were waiting for a large update to include it in. Microsoft's announcement obviously made them put it out by itself instead.

Well, at least it's a step in the right direction. But these updates are way too slow.

"Xbox One does it now, better do it. Also its for the players...get it? The people that PLAY blurays." #TVTVTV
But for real. Sony seems to get complacent when they are doing well and don't really do much until they have to or if there is enough uproar.

Did they actually say when "soon" was?
Or is this a PR reaction to the competition?
You suggested it reason for the delay was a licensing consideration. Obviously it has a different spec sheet; it functions differently. That's different from separate licensing. If you have reason to think otherwise, I'd appreciate being able to see it.
Of course they have
1.76 stability update
1.77 stability update
1.78 stability update
