        I saw that Sony today at Best Buy, the picture quality is insane granted the TV weighs almost 200 lbs.

            Yeah I'm looking for something bigger as in more than 34" and thinner.

                    After calibrating the TV this evening through the service menu, I was able to adjust the screen. The 360 looks better on my 50" HDRPTV, but after fighting with Best Buy's 3rd party repair service center for a month to finally get the TV fixed, I don't want to play anymore videogames on it for fear of degrating the TV any further. I need to fix the CRT to the best that I can for picture quality.

                    With professional calibration, I bet this TV could have a top notch picture.

                    Thanks to DXZeke and stiffarmleft for the codes.

                    Just looking at the screens, what does everyone think compared to my previous post on the previous page? Does the 360 Blades look fine with the settings that I adjusted (That white line is due to the camera)?

                      Do the newer plasma screens still burn in?

                        In theory it's still possible, but no, not really an issue now.

                          Cnet and Consumer Reports have rated it the top HDTV, as well as other websites.

                          Only thing is its a thousand bucks, I love sony, and have 2 other wegas (sdtv flatscreens) lying around, but I may buy this sucker if they have a 30" model for my daughters room.

                                Bravia's are looking like a very good brand, and most reviews are solid. The only issue is the single HDMI, but it may not be a problem, depending on your connections.

                                Just look at them in stores. You'll definately find TV's that look better or worse to your eyes. Hopefully you'll have a store that will let you fudge with the settings (check out Movie or Pro picture modes).

                                Good luck!
