Plasmas (and some newer LCDs) use a "glossy" screen that will do nothing but reflect light. If youre living room is bright, make sure you get a LCD with a "matte" finish to the screen.

Nothing worse than not being able to see your screen in the middle of the day.

Personally I have a Pioneer plasma as well as a Sony XBR LCD. The Sony doesnt even come close to the picture quality of the plasma. That being said, my plasma is in my HT room in the basement, and the LCD upstairs in our living room.

If you go with a plasma, check online on some of the a/v forums. You can find links to dload a burn-in prevention disc that you can play on your dvd to wear the colors in evenly and prevent burn-in.

Hope that helps, and good luck with the new tv purchase!

Well said and great advice for those needing to decide which way to go. Room lighting is everything and that should be the final deciding factor.

Re: Does anyone play Madden on a plasma?

Same Dilemma!

I now have a 37" 720p JVC LCD calibrated pretty good picture!

I'm in the market for a 46" 1080p 120hz television

My choice so far is

1.Samsung LED 46" 120hz

2.Panasonic 46" Viera

3.Sony Bravia 46" 1080p 120hz

Which do you all think is the best out of those 3?

Nice!!!

I went with a 42 inch Panasonic VIERA plasma. I've played hours of MLB The Show on it and have had no burn in issues at all.

Re: Does anyone play Madden on a plasma?

Plasma hands down is the best type of tv's for anything.

I have 5 hdtv's

I have 2 plasma's and 3 LCD's

I have the Panasonic Viera THX 50 inch plasma which is a great tv but not my favorite for gaming

I have 3 Samsung HDTV LCD's and they look great for gaming but suffer from input lag....Google it if you dont know what that is.

People will tell you that they dont see input lag but is there...

Unless you play in game mode which takes away your ability to edit the picture settings and has to much sharpness which leads to jaggies

1 of my lcd from samsung is the touch of color which is great

but it suffers from input lag worst then the other lcd's

My favorite hdtv that i have is my baby....The Elite Kuro 50 inch

http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PU...PRO-111FD.Kuro


best tv in the market hands down and it cost a pretty penny but gaming with no input lag and color and picture accuracy is beyond real

I game for long hours...in call of duty and madden and ncaa and all types of games and no burn in...that is a a thing of the past
