the 22-24 1080 monitors on the market tend to be sub 4m/s response so no noticeable blur...but a juicy 40"+ screen would be nice...$$$$$$$$

First I was playing on my 30" gateway xhd3000 which only likes to really run things at native resolutions so when I tried to play BOP on it the response time was wayyyy to lagggy.

So then I moved over to my 40" 1080p sammy and that was better, but sitting 12' feet away made playing simulator impossible...

So then, I broke out my Sanyo PLV-Z4 projector (see photo) and am now playing it at 1080i on 120" screen (see photo), but I am still gettin whipped on simulator because I refuse to play in any mode except for cockpit...the virtual cockpit can suck my ass, I hate that thing and wish we could ban it away. In my opinion, there is no other way to play this marvelous game other than with the projector...you can get a nice 720p Sanyo PLV-Z4 for around $500 on ebay!

True, most large screens tend to have terrible response times so object blurring becomes a problem when gaming. However if you know this already before you purchase a screen then the cost difference between one with a low response time and one with a high response time is negligable and is worth the difference in any case.

PS; A low response time is best so sub 4ms is actually good Both my TV (22") and PC screen (19") have a 2ms response time so no blurring for me at all

Well my Monitor has a response time of 5ms and the blur is very noticeable. Remember the response time is the time the pixels take to go from open to closed. for the pixel to change colour it has to close and then open again so that is 10ms. Around 4ms is about how fast the eye can see. So a plasma with a response time of micro seconds not milliseconds must be so clear and smooth.

that is right cause we dont get any blurring on our tv so looks like i made the right choice when choosing a plasma over lcd then i had heard rumours that plasmas were bad for games etc but i didnt pay much atention to it cause the guy at work is full of it lol

I do, i use a Samsung SyncMaster T240HD T.V, almost 1 year old, and it is the best TV i had so far, the only problem it has is that it is an HD, and my other t.v's are still oldskool, and i have no idea how to change the setting From Oldskool to HD if i Watch TV?

I'm having no issues with my Sanyo 26" 1080i/720p. I've heard on a screen smaller than 32" you won't notice much difference between 1080p/i. At any rate, it looks way better than my crappy old Magnavox sd so I'm well pleased.

I posted this as a reply on Xbox.com, but since I don't think most people take this into consideration when talking about resolutions, I put it up here too:
