Q. preferably not plasma as it could get burn in from lengthy (10+hour) gaming sessions.
LCD or LED
~32"-40"
1080p
reliable brand
low input lag!
possibly 120hz refresh but as the games i play run at 60hz max why would i need anything higher???
looks good! i dont like watching a good picture on something that doesn't look good. lol
and maybe a good surround sound to go with it? nothing to crazy just need something i can pump up the volume with! :D

A. Go with LED then, it's great for gaming.
Now your answer:
Brands that I like the most and probably best from least: Panasonic, Samsung, LG, Sony, Toshiba, Phillips.
Plasma >=< LED > LCD (LED is like the same/upgrade as LCD, so you should never go with LCD).
- Picture quality = Plasmas are better for picture quality (dark rooms and better dark pictures/video) and viewing experience with little to none motion blur (plasma for big tv's). (LED are better for tv's around 32 inches or smaller/small tv's for bright rooms and for bright pictures/videos).
- Sound quality = Plasmas are better, but LED is ok too,
- Appearance = I like plasma glass, but LED is nice too.
- Energy consumption = LED's are better (LED's are extremely economical and good for gamers).
- Reliable = LED's are only easier to take care of and last longer, so I guess they are better (I recommend LED tv's for gaming).
- Price = Both are about the same price and it's up to you to decide if you want a plasma or LED.
Is 1080 good? Yes.
- 1080 resolution is better than 720 resolution.
- Bigger tv's are better with 1080 than 720 (If the tv is around 32 inches I would go with 720, any bigger I would just want a 1080 especially for tv's that are over 42 inches).
- Farther you sit away from tv's means it's better to go with 1080 than 720 (If you sit more than 10 feet away from your tv, then I definitely would go with 1080).
- Progressive scan is better than interlaced scan.
- Example: 1080p > 1080i
- Example: 720p > 720i
- Example: 1080i > 720p (because more resolution is better for slower passed videos).
- Example: 720p > 1080i (because fast pass videos you be better off with progressive scan).
Is 60hz good? = No.
- You want at least 120hz for your tv to play your videos.
Hz is the refresh rate. (Some tv's have a choice what hz you can set it at).
- It's an HD TV-set running at 60Hz - meaning it refreshes the entire screen 60 times a second.
- It's an HD TV-set running at 120Hz - meaning it refreshes the entire screen 120 times a second.
FPS = frames per second.
- NTSC countries use 60hz = 30 fps.
- PAL countries use 50hz = 24/25 fps.
(For not equal conversions there is more math to it, and there is 3:2 or 2:3 pulldowns that I will not explain).
For NTSC countries:
- To display 30 frames per second on a TV with a 60 hz refresh rate, each frame is repeated 2 times every 30th of a second.
- To display 30 frames per second on a TV with a 120 hz refresh rate, each frame is repeated 4 times every 30th of a second.
For PAL countries (you don't want a tv with 60hz because that includes more math and bad effects).
- To display 25 frames per second on a TV with a 50 hz refresh rate (PAL Countries), each frame is repeated 2 times every 25th of a second.
- To display 24 frames per second on a TV with a 72hz refresh rate, each frame is repeated 3 times every 24th of a second.
- To display 25 frames per second on a TV with a 100 hz refresh rate (PAL Countries), each frame is repeated 4 times every 25th of a second.
- To display 24 frames per second on a TV with a 120hz refresh rate, each frame is repeated 5 times every 24th of a second.
.ect
(If your playing a video with a different fps, then there is different math, I used progressive scan math btw).
The hobbit (1 out of 3): An unexpecting Journey: (Prequel to lord of the rings): is one of the first movies to change from 24 fps to 48 fps (or 30 fps to 60 fps). We may see more movies do this.
I am still new to 3d tv's, ill have to get into them as well and I am not really a fan of 3d tv's anyways.
- All I can say is it's good for very slow pass scenes and/or animated movies.
I am not a fan of projectors either.
I don't have enough room, but I recommend a good hd-receiver and good surround sound speakers to plug/wire into that receiver.

Plasma vs LED or LCD?
Q. I'm considering buying 42''in - 50' in tv but i dont know which one to get. personally i prefer plasma because i hear that their black level and other aspects are superior thatn led or lcd. Any advice guys?
A. I prefer Plasma HDTV since they are 600hz, and can keep up with the action in a action movie. It don't leave any marks for a second or two after the scene is over and on to the next one. LCDs and LED edge lit LCD HDTVs are only up to 240hz. For now Plasmas are stuck at 600hz and there is nothing new that is higher and better. The newer Plasmas are more energy saving then when it first came out. It is true Plasma's black level and other aspects are more superior, and the company that did the best was Pioneer with their Kuro(just called Pioneer on the TV) and Elite Kuro( it just called Pioneer Elite or Elite on the TV) . Some reviewers today still say in more than two and a half years, no TV has delivered better picture quality than the Pioneer Kuro line of plasma TVs. I would think that comparing it to even Samsung's thinest Plasmas that either 55" or 60", and what Panasonic has that is consider a thin Plasma.
Here goes a link on it: http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-20034816-1.html
The Pioneer Kuro are gone now from the market, well the big retails like Best Buy and Costco don't have them any more for a long time. But one might be able to still find it at a good mom and pop type electronic store online or a brick and mortar one. Pioneer only came out with a 50" and 55" for those in the Elite and non Elite area. Ever since late February or early March of 2009 Pioneer have said they would not be making HDTVs anymore. It was due to the market and how business was for them. l'm glad that I have a Pioneer Kuro that 50", wish I had the 55". Got it from one of those good mom and pop online electronic store for like 2000. On the non Elites when it first came out the 50" was in the mid 3000 area, and the 55" in the mid 5000 area. Any way I like Pioneer's stuff when it comes to home theater. They are one of the best in A/V receivers and Blu-Ray players(other then Oppo).
The ONLY way I would go for a LED is if it from Pioneer, and they do have two out in the market. But it is a business deal between Pioneer and Magnolia Hi-Fi, and it is just call the Elite without the name Pioneer on it. It is also a 3D with 240hz, the 60" is price in the mid 5000 area and the 70" is price near the high 7000 area. So you only can get it at a Magnolia Hi-Fi or a Best Buy with one inside.
IF I had to go cheap on LED edge Lit LCD TV, and the price for the Pioneer is way too much for me. But the picture must be real good or almost equaling to their Kuro. Any way this is what I would go for.
Sharp Aquos Quattron 60" Class 1080p 240hz LED Edge Lit LCD HDTV
Model LC-60LE832U
But like I said I prefer Plasma over LED Edge Lit LCD and it good to check on the 55" or 60" Plasmas from Panasonic first, then the Samsung or LG. If it not what you like or want from Panasonic.
By the way I have NEVER had to recharge my Pioneer Plasma HDTV so far, since I got it in mid February of 2009.
