Two-player games
Some games offer multi-player and split screen gaming. On this
TV, you can set the split screen as two full screen views. Two
players watch the same TV but see two different screens to play
the game. The TV uses 3D technology to do this. To watch each
screen, you need a pair of 3D glasses for each player.
What you need
With this TV, use the two-player kit with 2 passive 3D glasses -
