go with a samsung LCD, they are not very good at making plasmas, also it depends where you play, if there is a lot of light then go with lcd but if youplay in your basement then go with plasma
Well if you want around 50-61inches 1080p tv for around $1600 DLP is your answer. 30-47 720p-1080p from $700-1800 LCD. Either way i would make sure your insurance covers w/e the warranty doesn't cover like accidents and pets breaking them. Happened to me and now my $1600 on my Samsung lcd went down the drain.
LCD because it can be used just about anywhere even when the ambient light is high. And they consume about half the power of the same size Plasma. There was an artical on TV the other night and there was a meter placed on both TV's and the LCD used half the power and then there is a power saver feature on many LCD's that brings this down even more.

true. I think I read the other day that Plasmas take up as much energy then refrigerators.

Yeah not to mention the lifespan is much shorter and the plasma is expensive to replace.

I have some really nice inductive meters here that one day I should check this out when the fridge is running. I did this on the PS3 while it was folding and you would be surprized at just how little power it consumes while folding.
The onlyadvantage LCD has is price and energy usage. The color reproduction and contrast on a good plasma will make most LCD's look washed out in comparison.
Plasma provides a much better picture. Darker blacks, more vivid colors, and faster response times all look better, even in lower resolutions. If you want the best picture go plasma.
well if i'm a bright house the lcd, in a dark room the lcd, if i'm watching movies the plasma, videos games i'll go with lcd mattering the game really, shooters lcd, rpgs plasmas....there is alot moe to it but u gave me like no info.
I did alot of research and asking when I bought my last gaming tv. I ended up getting a 50" lcd 1080p samsung 15000/1 ratio. It also has a gaming mode that speeds up the frame rate, so Im told. I think plasma and lcd are just a opinion which is better. The new lcd tvs look great alot whole lot better than the first gen. Do reasearch and make your chpice everyone has their own opinion. I love my tv looks great for games and bluray.
I have a 50" Philips plasma and LOVE it, but my only complains are that it makes a slight buzzing noise when there is a bright picture, and obviously the darn glare. But picture quality is WAY better than LCD IMO. DLP also have amazing picture quality, the blacks look sooooo good on DLP, but you gotta worry about changing the bulbs every few months (around $300) :cry:
EDIT: Unles you get one of those new Samsung LED DLP sets, they looks amazing, no bulbs!!
