Alright, I've found a good deal on this TV, and I'm just wondering if this is good for playing my Xbox 360 over component cables... tell me the positives and negatives if possible:

Someone else is probably going to say SOMETHING is wrong with it, but to me it looks great. LCD is just about all you can use, because newer consoles burn the image into Plasma screens. Anyways, it looks great.

Everything is subjective. Your opinion is the only one that matters. Go check it out and make a decision. Like the other guy said someone will trash it or at least find something wrong with it. Why? Because Opinions are just that.

So you guys figure it's a decent entry-level hdtv? Do you think there would be much lag playing Rock Band?

No doubt the TV looks good, but it just seems that at that price, you could get a bigger screen, especially at 720p. I just purchased a Sharp Aquos 42" 720p TV for $999. And right now, TigerDirect is selling a 42" LG 1080p LCD for $1099, with free shipping. Just click here:

Click on "CLICK to view lower price" link to see the sale price.

Thanks for the advice, but I only have enough space in my room for a 32" TV... But ya, if you guys all think it's good, I might go for it...

DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS GUY! Lcd is fine, but don't be scared of Plasmas. I game on one, and there has never been any burn in, in fact burn-in is not an issue anymore. Anyone who says otherwise is just ignorant to this fact.

But at the 32" level, there aren't any decent plasmas... but ya, burn-in isn't much of a problem anymore
