I have a 50'' "Soniq" Plasma (720p / 1080i), and I love it. I would always recommend a Plasma for movies & gaming - LCDs make for better monitors, or when you need a super high resolution.

I also think full HD (1080p) is just a waste of money, but the cost has come down a lot recently.

I bought my TV for under $2000 AU around 12 months ago, and its now $1299 (AU). The 40'' version is only around $799 AU.

is there any burn risk in the new plasmas ?? and is the games make the risk of the burn higher ??

 


There's burn in risk to plasma and slightly to LCD's even current generations of them however the risk is very low on plasmas and completely negligible on LCD. In either case, the image would need to be static for quite some amount of time to get permanent burn in.
