Anyone co-sign with this? I saw a plasma last night and thought it looked good.

I do.  A relative mine has a 50" Sony LCD and a 50" Panny plasma, and I prefer the plasma.  Sadly all the gaming consoles are hooked to the LCD in his bedroom instead of the plasma in their family room.

Unless you have a tendency to leave your games on pause or the TV on one channel (with an icon) for hours and hours at a time then definitely go for the plasma.  Burn-in is a reality, but with every passing generation of plasma TVs it becomes less and less of an issue.

Part of that may be because its a Sony LCD.  Being a videogame website i'm sure there will be a lot of people who will disagree... but honestly Sony has lost a lot when it comes to TVs. 

Samsung has passed them.  Sony's kinda living on brandname... at least that's the case when i look at them in the stores.

+1 for this.

Philips are also better than Samsung at the moment. They use Samsung screens but the electronics behind them do a better job.
