I bought one the day it came out to replace my 19" computer monitor and I am very happy with it. I preordered it from gamestop by some certain date so on top of Motorstorm they also included Resistance 3 and Uncharted 3 with it so I was ok with the price.

I figured it would be a good upgrade for my computer room and it would be more then enough to satisfy the very small interest I had in 3D. After playing Uncharted 3 and GT5 on it I am considering buying a bigger 3D TV. I couldn't care less about watching movies or TV in 3D but video games are pretty awesome.

It still hasn't even made it into my computer room yet. It is sitting on my living room table and I have been playing mostly on that instead of my 55" Samsung.

Some major wishful thinking here lol

So how is this as a PC monitor?

If you haven't seen any of the top-tier 3D releases you're missing out on quite a bit, because the 3D on movies have noticeably more depth.

I wonder how the input lag is on this. 3D processing probably adds some major frames of lag.

Someone with a Rock Band 2/3 setup with the light sensor on the guitar should measure for us.

It probably doesn't touch the ASUS, i'm betting it's quite awful, like most cheaper HDTVs.

Insane deals happen, more frequently than you might imagine. You just have to be there at the right time to grab them. So while you(and others) just assume it'll never happen, my opinion is that it COULD happen. Will it happen for certain? Don't know.

But that's the fun part of trying to get these insane deals: hunting for them.

Ok if it gets to that low low price, let me know please. Seriously.

Game Stop has this with Uncharted 3 for free

Before or after I pillage the Tri-State area of any that remain?

Sonic Generations was pretty cool too, but took a little adjusting to get the 3D setting I want (Sonic moving fast can make it tricky). Once I try out all my 3D games (I have a bunch) and get another pair of 3D glasses (and invite a CAG friend over), I may blog my full detailed impressions of the display.

Definitely looking forward to your write up - might convince me to grab one for the bedroom.

I saw a couple of you asking about the "new" Sony remote - if I buy one of these, will my "old" Sony Bluetooth remote for my PS3 not work with this TV? Kind of weird they don't include at least a minimal remote - not like I need to add to my damn collection.

game stop crooks after cheating of Human Deux Code now cheating with their online deal of uncharted free with 3d Display .i been to two gamestops in NH 03079 .Both said it was only one day sale .Their website mention it runs until 12/20 .They deny their own website deal

+1

I bought my 55" 3D mostly for gaming. I have enjoyed the 3D movies a lot more, and I thought the gaming was awesome. The Lion King 3D brought a smile to my face instantly.

my gamestop said its valid and will ring up automatically.

I've read several different people are having problems with the screen going black occasionally for a second, anyone have one here that have had this problem?

A lot of people say they have had the problem on multiple displays here(they also seem to be having trouble getting support from the device through sony):
http://community.us.playstation.com/...art=0&tstart=0


This has me thinking twice about wanting the display at any price, and especially not from gamestop due to their return policy.

I already faced that problem with my Asus .Turned out it was my connection that runs through Sony sound system .Switching HDMI to 1.4 resolved that problem but still it does once in a while but a lot less compared to old hdmi cable .

I just can't see spending $400 on a 24" TV. I understand what the TV was made for, but I'd rather save up my pennies and buy something 20-30" bigger and that I don't have to sit 2 feet in front of.

3D just Like Apple isn`t for everyone .it is Love Hate relationship with nothing in between .

This is still $499.99 at FYE/Transworld stores BUT they have a $100 mail-in rebate offer with purchase of it. So if perhaps you could find a way to convince a manager there to actually drop it the $100 everybody else pretty much has already, then that'd make this $299.99 after MIR.

Wow..a whole 3 frames. I know some people will game on nothing less than LAN, wired, 0ms response time and only in the pro circuit, but it's not THAT bad playing on LCD/LED/Plasma

Could be better, it's shit compared to the EVO monitor. At least it's not as bad as Samsung's garbage ass TVs.
