Hi, I've been reading a few threads on these forums and they have answered a bunch of my questions relating to buying my first HDTV, however one question is still bugging me.

Which format is better for gaming, LCD or Plasma?

I have decided that I want 42" and I am going with 1080p but I still can't decide what format to get. I do love to watch blurays on my ps3 but I also like to game, I would prolly spend a few hours each day gaming and watch a movie most nights of the week. At the moment I am doing this through a 19" ASUS PC monitor that is capable of 720p but the darn thing is soooo tiny.

I would go with a Sony LCD or a Panasonic Plasma, depending which is better. By the way I usually play games during the day when it is very light and I watch movies in the dark if that helps. Which format gives the best PQ for gaming in a light environment and would that be good for blus aswell?

Thanks for any help!
