Today Sony will be releasing MotorStorm 3D Rift to PSN with a price of $9.99 USD. This is the next stereoscopic 3D game available for the PlayStation 3 gamers that already have a 3D HDTV and are playing still just few of the stereo 3D-capable titles. The game MotorStorm 3D Rift includes 10 tracks from MotorStorm Pacific Rift like Kanaloa Bay or Caldera Ridge, and provides a selection of festival-favorite off-road vehicles including Bikes, Buggies, Racing Trucks, and Monster Trucks. In 3D Rift you’ll have 10 unique events to compete in (one for each track) with the full range of competitor difficulty levels through the races, so you can enjoy the brutal off-road racing at your leisure or take on the toughest and most competitive rivals.

And of course Sony plans to further expand the MotorStorm experience in 3D, but that will happen next year with the release of MotorStorm Apocalypse that is going to be complete game with stereoscopic 3D support unlike the kind of limited implementation that will be available in MotorStorm 3D Rift which is more like a 3D-capable demo of the game MotorStorm Pacific Rift. Anyway, if you already have the PS3 updated to the latest firmware with support for stereoscopic 3D gaming along with a 3D-capable HDTV, then you should go and get MotorStorm 3D Rift.

The game Invincible Tiger: The Legend of Han Tao by Blitz Arcade, the downloadable games division of Blitz Games Studios has been honored with an interesting achievement – a Guinness World Record for the first video game to use stereoscopic polarized 3D. The award comes just in time at the moment Invincible Tiger is celebrating it’s first year since the launch of the game in August 2009. A 70s Kung-Fu movie-style side-scroller that follows the eponymous hero as he battles across ancient China to reclaim the Star of Destiny, Invincible Tiger is an excellent 2D experience in its own right but was also the world’s first console game to provide players with the option of stereoscopic 3D, where crisp and clear 3D depth of field can be viewed without sacrificing color or clarity. The game also includes anaglyph 3D, which is compatible with any TV and a pair of standard anaglyph glasses. It is interesting to note the fact that the game uses a native stereoscopic 3D engine that allows it to be played on different consoles by using different 3D-capable hardware, without the need for the game console to officially support S3D on its own. Now what we just need is to also get a PC version of the game.
