Brehs I need Help.....

I just copped a 60inch Panasonic UT50. ( In the store the plasmas looked 100 times better imo) and I heard they have almost no lag when gaming.

The question I have is how bad is burn- in on plasmas ?


Is it as bad as people online say it is or is it just a minor inconvenience?


Thanks in advance.

plasmas are much better/smoother for gaming, only real problem is glare and it uses alot more electricity I believe....

I got a samsung plasma. Had no burn in issues at all. Plasma colors look alot more soft and natural. Im very happy with my samsung.

Yeah it prob does use alot more power and they do give off heat but :heh: looks good.

the picture on a Plasma is so much richer than an LCD. it's hard to believe but damn.

I use my PS3 on my 40" Sony Bravia LCD, but I'm nervous as hell to hook it up to my 60" Panasonic Viera Plasma.

cause the color burn breh, I got an original 50" Pioneer Plasma my pops bought back in 2004, when them shyt's first came out and it cost the same as a car pretty much :whoo:, few years later the whole display had to be replaced, because it was burning green into the corners of the TV.

luckily we had a warranty and it was free to replace. :whew:

shyt still works too, but I don't run gaming consoles on it. I figured I'd leave my 60" Panasonic alone. :ld:

I kinda wish I had a plasma. If I did it would be the Panasonic VT50. I've always been an LCD guy and I just got a 47 Sony HX850 and a 55 LG LM7600. If I was smarter I would have got a plasma instead for one of them.

Why not LED?
