Should of spent less and got a DLP

LCD's and Plasma TV will burn the image in if left on the same image for an extended period of time. Where as a DLP will not read here.

plasmas DO have a burnin effect although it shouldnt burn in unless you leave the image on there for more than a day.....
but lcds are the way to go only reason we have plasmas is because of the larger screen

k so i have a plasma for about a year now, i play video games on it ALL THE TIME. and yes they can be burnt in. like i've had the halo health thing burn in but it wasn't permanent. it went away within like 20 mins. and my tv has a screeenwipe thing were it will do some weird thing and get rid of burnins as much it can. anyway that delivery guy doens't know what he's talking about. yes, if you play a game with a constant health bar or somehing on the screen for like 15 hours straight it will burn in for a very long time. if yoru concerned about it, take a break every hour or something. but it's not a problem

If you were to play BF2, or any other game on a plasma, just make sure to make the HUD a little transparent. That way the image will not burn onto the screen.

Do not trust the following:

Famers.
Bag boys.
Cashiers.
and Delivery men/woman.

In relevance to tech. There is a reason they have said jobs and not something even as high as a sales consultant.

Get your plasma back, there is no reason not to use a game console on a plasma. FFS man do you're own research, or go to someone smart enough to do it for you.

Not hardly. Plasma is antiquated and will go the way of the dinosaurs. Plasma displays are subject to burn in, and if you do things that continually leave a residual image, even if they go away in a short period of time, they can eventually become permanent.

Plasma displays also need to be recharged at some point. The cost of that is often to expensive that it is more viable just to buy another TV.

I have had both my plasmas for 1 and a half years now, and it has never had a burn-in. Not once. Not even a 10 second temperary one. I play games on it all the time and it is often on the same channel for over 8 hours a day. Nothing has happened to them.

Before I bought a new monitor I played for quite a while on my 50" HD plasma. No problems whatsover.

Now, the OLD plasmas had the burn-in problem but that issue is pretty much non-existent now.

Ive heard that 2, as i know playing video games on a plasma tv will burn your pixel after hours of playing, that probably the reason why the guy sayd you cant play video games on a plasma !!!!! nway if you have took the extra garanty with it so you have like 3 years garanty just say FUCK IT and play wit ur 360, your pixel will burn you go at the store and they give you a new one you play again the pixel burn you go at the storeand they you a new one !!!! Do that for 3 years in 3 years new technologi will go out so you will be able to play video games on plasma so you play again you burn your pixel one last time you go at the store and say: i had the same problem 3 times bla bla bla they will give you the new one !!!!!

THIS IS IT, THATS ALL, THATS IT

He did lie, but for your own good. If you want your T.V. to last for a much shorter lifespan by all means play away on your Plasma. If you really want to game on a flatscreen and not worry, go for an lcd. The lifespan of a plasma, as well as the classic burn-in are big problems. I used to sell high resolution tv's at best-buy so if you think I'm full of shit go ahead. Glad you got an lcd though.

Yes, plasmas have burn out but it's a matter of years. Like 10 years. Most people get new TV's within 10 anyway. And plasmas has a slighter edge over LCD's on brightness and quality.

I have an LG plasma.

I didn't see that edge when I bought. I'm sure it varies by brand. Most manufacter's are leaning dlp anyways. You are comparing billions of colors to trillions of colors with dlp.

Both LCD and plasma TVs will meet the brightness expectations of most consumers. However, in 'real world' situations with ambient light, LCD TVs will generally look a little brighter.

My personal opinion is that the future will be turning more into the favor of LCD's once they can catch up with the sizes and the prices are closer (lcd's are more expensive).

WTF gahhhhhhhh

I built a whole wook entertainment unit for it too

EDIT: Yes but hes saying that after much continuous playback, (100+ hours) it will burn out....

He's right, that's the bad thing about buying a plasma, they burn out and the quality starts to turn to shit after a while.
