LCD vs Plasma TV for Gaming?

I want to get a new TV and was wondering which was better LCD or Plasma.'. I am looking for a 40 inch TV and I will be doing around 7-8 hours of gaming a day. I don't watch much sports but i watch a football match one a week. I'm not a movie watcher as well. I also wanted to know if Panasonic Viera plasma TV's have burn-in because people say don't get Plasma if your going to be doing a lot of gaming.

Answer:

42" Plasma.

Plasma burn won't be an issue if you play games, just don't leave it on all night with the same image on the screen. (like your high score)

Plasma will give you much more pleasure. Go for 1080 if you can.

    Look for the TV Lifetime (for example: 60,000 hours, which is a lot)

    For a gaming TV, you shhould look for a 1080p TV if you want high definition (and make sure to buy an HDMI cable)

    I have both a Plasma and an LCD TV. I play on both and I don't see anything "burning" All you need to care about is the hours for the Lightbulbs of the TV

    if you are looking for a TV mainly for gaming, then a LCD is your best bet. they are energy efficient and will not give you burn-ins like plasmas.
    plasmas have a good picture quality but they have there fair share of disadvantages. check out the link. i was looking for the same thing as you were.

    Depends what you are doing. If you are playing Wii than LCD because you can see the picture from any point of view. However any other game systems look much better on Plasma and give you a better game experience.

    with 1080 plasma
    the color is much better
    you can see every color possible, while lcd is only lighter and has some other better stuff, but if your looking for color and how it looks, go with plasma
