ESPN to stop broadcasting in 3D by the end of the year. RIP 3D TV?

For as hard as some companies pushed for 3D TV just a couple years ago, the adoption rate has been horrible and the demand just isn’t there. ESPN was first in line to start broadcasting in 3D and now it looks like they’ve decided it’s just not worth it.

Oh sure, we’ve seen the hell out of the PS4 controller, but until a little over an hour ago at E3, they hadn’t actually shown the console itself.

And while it will have all kinda of movie and music streaming services built in, Sony is definitely positioning the PS4 as a gaming console, unlike Microsoft, who is selling the Xbox One as a living room entertainment box.
