No amount of skill can compensate for wandering eyes. It’s a truth known all too well by gamers throughout time who struggle with the dreaded split screen in their multiplayer sessions."

Sony already did this a long time ago. And its great and all but the truth is people spend more time online than playing with actual friends anymore. Taking turns at online matches why play local? I could see this benefiting diabli three where players could still roam and play without the inventory screen blocking views.

Exactly, Sony did this with there playstation branded 3D tv a long time ago, and now most of their full size 3D TVs have this function as well

True but its still a variant and different tech there . Anyway most split screens games are geared toward co-op over competition , or are now racers . In such case who care who sees your screen ?

this isn't new. my lg tv from 2 years ago has this feature. it just wasnt called dual play yet.

This story is not a duplicate. I have actual info from the LG reps about the monitor, not just a video.

monitor this size is just stupid IMO. better just go and get a TV

DeputyB958d ago

If this was a 4k monitor it would be a great size.

Sircolby45958d ago

I disagree, but I still wouldn't get this monitor because the res is just too small for that size. That res is fine for a 34" Ultrawide, but should be higher for 45". Using a TV for a monitor comes with its own annoyances though. Mainly they take some trickery (usually special software) to get them to turn off/on when the PC commands them to unlike a normal monitor that does this automatically.

and play your PC on it? I'd rather play on a gaming monitor designed for PC gaming than hook up my PC to a regular TV.

badz149958d ago

for the price, you can get a 48" LG C2 (4K 120Hz) and a PS5 right now. the C2 is so far away from being a "regular TV". still one of the best TV around for gaming imo.

Neonridr958d ago (Edited 958d ago )

@badz149 - I have a 65" C9, I know how good of a TV it is (also have an older E6). The lag is still considerably higher than these gaming monitors. If you used them you'd know. I have a 32" LG 4K 165Hz monitor for my PC. I'd take that any day over my C9. I use my C9 for my PS5, that's what it's designed for. Most gaming monitors are designed with PCs in mind.

badz149958d ago

the C9 is quite old by now and of course for PC gaming, the 32" 165Hz would be a no brainer choice by default. no argument there. the 4K 165Hz would have a better response time and higher pixel density.

but I was comparing, comparing this 1440p UWQHD to the 4K C2 where the C2 (and the C1 still to some extent) are still one of the best gaming displays around.

Neonridr957d ago

@badz149 - sure, I don't disagree, I do love my LG OLEDs.

I wish it were higher res. 1440p feels too low for 45 inch.
