    well obvious you don't know what your looking at so when looking for a TV you should look at what features like resolution and dept of definition like the difference between a plasma and LCD tv. Don't get anything lower then 1080p or 1080i, the higher the resolution the better. If the 42 is a few 100 extra get it and don't worry all is well in the end. HDMI is also a key for great gaming which will give you the max out of the graphics.

    Research what your looking at before the salesman see's you coming a mile away :p

    full 32 inch lcd or LG, can you tell me which is the best for the ps3
    i heard rumours abouy LG that sometimes does not detect the console, and you have to update firmware.

    Great, very simple consumer. Stop looking at brands the only reason your going by brand because you have done absolutely zip research into what your investing into also you bought a PS3 so you got it mostly for the blue ray and not the games. Real gamers buy Xbox.

    So you got this over sized brick in front of you what are you going to look for the shiny brand name with a over priced tag or understand what's under the hood, in the end i doubt you would see the finer details from a better quality screen so find a good price and size and if it has HDMI and 1080 then buy it.

    find the biggest LCD screen you have that is NOT Plasma!!!! you seriously want my recommendation haha sweet

    42" LCD screen, brand does not matter aslong as it is known. throw out the PS3 your not going to need it because a xbox will all ways do a better job but optional, your going to need a HDMI cable so make sure the TV has HDMI for best graphics if you don't i will slap you. Check how much power the TV uses as some can be drainer's. Take a iPhone/Mobile device with you so you can check internet reviews on the run to see how it pan's out after people have bought it.

    Don't buy the first one make sure you look around and if a salesman comes up to you before you say give it to me i just want to play games now ask 500 questions and repeat some even if you are unsure if his answer because the more you know and talk about it the more your going to get a better deal but use commen scene when talking to sales haha.

    Really it is simple to buy a tv just make sure you get the one that you need.
