Update will enable 3D on consoles with HDMI output.
Xbox 360 is poised to receive full stereoscopic 3D support, with an official announcement likely at this year's E3 according the rumours circulating yesterday. The 3D technology is said to be the same as that used by the PlayStation 3.
Back in January, Microsoft's Aaron Greenberg said that while technically the Xbox 360 was fully capable of supporting 3D games, they were "unsure what level of interest there is from consumers to really want a 3D experience." However, he added that it would be supported "Many, many years from now when it becomes a reality."

According to a Eurogamer source, who is 'familiar with Xbox 360 development', 3D support will soon be enabled on Microsoft's console. The source said that the "machine is not only very capable, it's more capable than the PlayStation 3 of doing stereo, assuming you don't have one of the old crappy ones with the composite leads."
Currently, stereoscopic 3D is one of the PS3's unique selling points, allowing those with a 3D-enabled television to play PS3 exclusives like Killzone 3 and GT5, as well as third-party titles such as Call of Duty: Black Ops and Crysis 2, in immersive full 3D.
Expect more details at Microsoft's E3 press conference on June 6.
