Unfortunately it looks like this implementation still has the same division of pixels between the two players – it’ll just look blurry instead of having a squished part of the screen allocated to each player.
The set uses a 3D panel to drive two images, so two players can play the same game head-to-head. Like 3D gaming, the software needs to support the functionality; thankfully, if the game already supports stereoscopic 3D, it only needs a “small interlace tweak” to support head-to-head gaming.
It works like this: Instead of rendering two unique 540p images to create a single “1080p” 3D image, it renders two distinct gameplay streams and uses specially keyed glasses (ours were marked “L” and “R”) to isolate each player’s display.
