Having opened this thread a second time and still not understanding, I looked in Wikipedia.
A 24 inch 1080p PlayStation branded 3D television, officially called the PlayStation 3D Display, was released in late 2011. A feature of this 3D television is SimulView. During multiplayer games, each player will only see their respective screen (in full HD) appear on the television through their respective 3D glasses, instead of seeing a split screen (e.g. player 1 will only see player 1's screen displayed through their 3D glasses).

Its on most LG tv's, its called duel play & both people only see 720p if its a full hd tv, not sure if they do a 4k set yet.

However the glasses are bought in pairs & 1 set has 2 left lenses to see the left image & the vice versa for the right image.

The reason for only getting 720p each is because LG use passive 3D so the full hd image is split in half unlike active 3D where the glasses do the work so you still get the full 1080p image in 3D, but I don't think any other tv brand support duel play.

I think forza 4 or 5 supported this option not sure but its definitely a LG thing.

It's absolutely not LG-exclusive, at least both Philips and Sony have done it too. However, actual simulview as supported by a few PS3 games was exclusive to one Sony display.

I never said it was, however LG promoted it alot better than any other brand hence thats why I said "i don't think any other brands support it" as I was unsure.
