What is the best type of TV for PS3 gaming?

Q. What is the best TYPE of TV
LCD
HDTV
PLASMA
(or any other things you would like to point out)

A. Before I answer I would just like to clarify something. I find your second option quite funny as HDTV is not exactly a type of TV but rather a category of tv's that fit in if they exceed 720 resolution :) Just thought i'd clarify this. 1080p is currently the highest resolution found in consumer TV's and is also considered an HDTV. Currently, LCD and plasma are the major 2 tv types being sold in the markets.

I answered this exact same question a little while ago on answers, so I will repost what I said:

To answer your question directly - the answer is LCD for gaming as you would not have to worry about image burn-in that plagues many plasma displays. Static images such as health bars, maps, etc. that are all visible in video games, when displayed on plasmas for long periods of times (ie. many hours per week) could cause potential burning-in the screen for the future. This is still a problem for modern plasmas although the effects were much more visible in earlier editions of plasma displays.

The advantage to plasma however is that they have deeper or real black levels. With LCDs, the blacks are artificial and on many of the cheaper LCD sets, the black levels will look slightly washed out or grey.

I have a ps3 and use an LCD if that has any extra value. I simply enjoy the fact that I don`t have to worry about screen burn-in every time I turn on the TV even though many of the modern plasmas take a lot of usage in order for this to happen. It`s just a peace of mind I guess.

EDIT: I'd just like to clarify somethinig that another poster mentioned as it is major misinformation. LCD tv's that have 1080p resolution are not the best quality tv's. This is absolutely not true. There are 1080p resolution plasmas as well and with the deepened black levels I mentioned above, the plasmas would in fact have the better image quality. This is the major reason why people in fact buy plasmas, otherwise, why would someone buy something inferior to LCD in image quality and also risk image burn-in? However, some LCD tv's just recently (i.e. samsung 9 series) have LED backlighting which allows black levels to come very close to those of plasmas. However, the best image quality in a TV at the moment for the general consumer market is the Pioneer kuro elite model plasmas.

Just thought i'd clear up some information here as some people will get the wrong impression from the above post.


What is the difference between an LCD tv and a plasma?Which is the better buy?
Q. We are thinking of buying a new tv and dont know which one to get.Plasmas seem to be cheaper but I am looking for the pros and cons between a plasma and a LCD.

A. Due to posting limitations in Yahoo! Answers I have posted my attempt at a reasonably thorough overview of the pros and cons of plasma and LCD technology on the Google Docs Webpage to which I’ve provide a link below.

If you seriously value video image fidelity and would like a reasonably immersive experience when viewing movies then I strongly recommend purchasing the largest direct-view 1080p HDTV that you can afford (preferably a minimum of 50 inches, give or take 2 or 3 inches, up to a maximum of roughly 70 inches.) It is important that you choose an HDTV that will provide the best video (processing) performance when using a wide mix of video source material without sacrificing user-friendly operation as well as interoperability with other video equipment, namely HDMI-equipped video components such as upscaling DVD players, BD players, cable set-tops, etc.

Based solely on video image quality the pricey Pioneer KURO PDPs set the standard and remain one of THE best consumer TVs currently on the market. I highly recommend taking a serious look at Panasonic’s (PZ800 Series) PDPs and—to a somewhat lesser extent—Samsung’s (650 Series) PDPs as well as VIZIO’s new VP505XVT if you’re interested in good quality, lower-cost alternatives.

If you have a viewing environment containing substantial illumination I would give additional consideration to LCD TVs from Samsung (A650 Series,) Sony and a few other brands.

When shopping for a new HDTV (assuming you still watch—or plan on watching—a moderate amount of SD video material,) be sure to thoroughly test the TVs in which you’re interested using a wide variety of source materials, especially average quality non-upscaled, non-HD source material, (as well as Silicon Optix’s HQV Benchmark discs, if possible,) input directly into each of the TV’s video inputs that you plan on using. Doing so should help you quickly assess the TV’s video and image processing performance as well as the TV’s ability to provide such video and image processing without incurring noticeable lip-sync error.
