I did not intend to say that 60Hz TVs are bad. Higher frequency(>=120Hz) means that that there will interpolated frames between true frames. That will enhance your gaming experience as your perception of motion will be smoother. 

120Hz TVs aren't that costly either, and you can get some really good ones. 

120HZ is only good with a none fast paced game, like a racing game for example. For fps games however, most will want to turn this feature off.

I do agree about the additional lag due to interpolation and yes for FPS games it is recommended to turn it off. However, the additional lag is not that much since newer TVs also have better processors. And as you say, for movies and racing games, 120 Hz is the way to go. 

On a side note, if lag is such an important issue, then why not go for plasmas?  :)

Phorsphor trails, burn in, image retention, power consumption, phorsphor half-life etc etc :)

NO! That was two years ago. Current LG and Panasonic plasmas have been tested thoroughly and not only have they resolved burn in, but their picture quality is just incredible.
