    Advice for Plasma Vs LCD for gaming

    I did a comparison between a Samsung A650 (LCD) and the Panasonic PY800 (PLASMA) in one of our local forums, and here is what I've observed: "By request a quick comparison of the Sammy A650 vs the Panny PY800 Ok, this has to be the most difficult eye racking comparison I've ever made. First...

    Getting back to an old hobby (Video Games)

    A friend of mine is offering to sell me a brand new, unused PS2 (Japan Version) for 199.99. The unit as follows: (link for reference only) http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-o-49-en-70-2fb.html Looks like a good deal, since a lot of 2-D fighting games seem to be Japanese versions. What...

    I saw previews of the new Batman and King of Fighters, looks like I'm just in time. So far it's good to be back. Thank you.

    Thanks. Could you run down a good top ten "must have" games for the PS2, for starters? Many thanks again.

    Thank you I'll be getting one too. Just an update: My PS3 came in today and I hooked it up to my plasma via HDMI, everything seems to work fine. The system updated, and the game: Street Fighter 4 had some sort of an update as well. I miss the plug and play route but the updates did not...

    Thank you, I'll connect the PS3 via HDMI and the 360 along with the wii by components. I'm not into "sounds" that much so a digital audio device is not needed.

    @ChaoticClimax Thank you for the information, I'll get that Castlevania as soon as my Xbox 360 arrives. Placed an order for the box just today as well. @lolwut? About the VGA connection you mentioned for the 360, will that be equivalent to my T.V's PC input? Anyway, I'll use the PC input...

    Ordered a PS3 already along with Street Fighter 4, a few more questions: 1) Since, I don't know the version of my T.V's HDMI port will any HDMI cable do? 2) I'll be getting an Xbox 360 and a Wii as well, could component cables output 720p for the box and 480p for the wii respectively? 3)...

    Thank you for the advise, just to further my post: Yes, blu-ray is a good thing but I have a dedicated blu-ray player already. However, I just noticed my plasma has only 1 HDMI input, so the need for a 2 in 1 console (gaming/blu-ray) becomes a priority to make full use of that 1 port(PS3 comes...

    Thank you for the reply. If the Wii has that feature, then it's a must buy for me. Though old games still have a substantial draw(simply because I miss them),I also don't mind trying out new games. If "arcade" ports aren't an issue anymore, I guess I've been out for a long time and have...

    Getting back to an old hobby (Video Games)

    Hello, I'm a 30+ year old guy who was at one point in time - a video game fan! I grew up with my Genesis, Super Nintendo and a Neo-Geo before I moved on to another hobby. I skipped the Playstation 1,2 and other related consoles, because I never really liked the "3-D" game concept, and of...
