HDTV PLasma question

[FalconSS]

Im looking for an affordable 1080P plasma and would like to ask a couple of questions.

1. Is there any reputable HDTV review sites (I wish [H] did some)

2. Is plasma good for gaming? ( I like the Black levels of plasmas )

3. In your expert opinions what is the best 50-65 inch flat panel.

4. Should I wait for SED?

The absolute best place for info including informal user reviews is the avsforum. There are many professionals and a/v enthusiasts who know what they're talking about mixed in with the noobs at that forum. I've been using my Panasonic plasma for gaming over 2 years now with no issues...and it does look fantastic, especially with Xbox 360. I will admit that an lcd tv would be better for gaming (not PQ wise) simply because the chance of burn-in is much less. having said that....all plasmas made in the last 5 years or so have built-in anti-burnin features that work great. just use a little common sense and use a wide variety of sources, stretched/letterbox content for the first 100 hours and you'll be fine.
