You need a 3D BD player to play 3D.

Doesn't depend on that really.
Many 3D Bluray releases have the 3D and 2D versions on separate discs and if you try to play the 3D version on a non 3D player the disc won't play beyond a notice telling you why.

He might need to change his HDMI lead too depending on if its 1.4 or not.

So even if the tv has 2d to 3d the disc won't always play on a non 3D player

Or a PlayStation3.

(i know a couple of people that were about to buy a dedicated 3D Blu-ray player, not realising that the PS3 they already had under their TV was capable of the job)
