[Closed] Which TV to perfectly partner PS3?

[#1188150]

Thinking of getting a PS3 and, as I'll be doing some home improvements, I have convinced myself that I would like a 'space-saving' flat-screen TV to marry it to.

What suggestions might the good viewers and gamers of STW suggest as a useful resource for learning of such things, or even put forth themselves based on experience?
[FYI - I can't get cable here (yet), and I don't wish to get a satellite set-up. That may make a difference. Home cinema package? Well, maybe, but in no way a necessity]
Oh, I might add that budget is restricted, so we're thinking TV for no more that £400.

Much obliged

I think for gaming you want something with a fast response time.

Unless you are getting a really massive one don't worry about whether it's HD Ready or HD Ready 1080p

Take a look at Richer Sounds.
I bought the LG 42LH3000 for £ 509 else where is £ 599.00p
And I bought the wall bracket from Screw fix £ 40.00p for a tilting one.
Ok a little bit more off the wall but I can plug in the back
without taking the TV off the wall if I need to put more connections
in the back of the TV.

I've always wondered if a PS3 would benefit from one of these 'colour' tellies (though I understand funds are limited).

Could you find another £100?

It's Sony's top-end 32" TV and perfect to get the most out of the PS3. You can justify it as you won't be paying for an extended warranty (M&S 5 year as standard).

They have a Sony 37" 1080p set for the same price but not such a high-end panel.
