Well...my parents decided to get a TV without me. I just arrived at my house and BAM there it was. There was a huge sale at Futureshop and they bought a Panasonic PT53WX52 53" Widescreen Television.
My question is: will I be able to play videogames on it without killing the picture tube? I already have a 32 inch TV in my room and I'll only be playing it (the new TV) when friends come over so we can play multi-player games.
I called Futureshop back to asked them and they said yes it's fine for playing videogames. Just for clairification I called another store and the salesperson said they he wouldn't recommend it becasue it will burn out the picture tube even with S-video/monster cables. I don't know who to believe
Here's some info on the website:
