Anyone care to chime in? Posted via RS Mobile | I find plasma's aren't consistent for gaming as the blacks are REALLY true black. LED is far better IMO. I have both.

if you want anything from best buy that was in the flyer, go to the stores at the malls. The one at Queensborough said they always have limited stock b/c they are a low volume store. We went to the Lansdowne store and found the GPS we wanted with plenty of stock. The store at Queensborough sold out fast.

Posted via RS Mobile | I think I know what you're talking about. The picture looks "too smooth," right? It's a setting in the menu somewhere, though I've forgotten what it's called at the moment.

I had a shitty morning at NCIX and Metro so I went to the states instead. Costco, Walmart, and Abercrombie (50% off everything  ) treated me much better plus NO CROWDS/line ups anywhere.

Posted via RS Mobile | I know what you mean, there's a setting to change that. If you play scary ass games or something like Red Dead Redemption it's impossible to see anything when it's supposed to be dark as the blacks are literally black and the contrast is naturally high on plasma's. Then when you change the brightness/contrast it won't look natural. I find plasma's are excellent for movies though. Smooth like a baby's bottom with true colors. Quote:

Unfortunately, not much in terms of clothes in my size .
