| 1202956 | 2011-05-18 03:02:00 | Have just about finished paying off my last TV (god bless hire purchase) and I'm looking to upgrade it. I'm alternating between a 50" and a 32" at home and the size difference is giving me the shits. So, I'm on the prowl, and during my prowl I discover....The same spec 50" plasma as I currently have is the exact same price as what I paid a year and a half ago :groan: The higher spec (which is what I'm after) was at that price point a few months back so prices have risen. But for only a few hundred more I can get a full HD 50" 3D plasma:horrified Has anyone bought a 3d screen? does it get much use?, is it recommended? I asked the twats at a local store to demonstrate the 3d capabilities of the screen I was interested in, all they could show me was the 2d-3d conversion which was crap, when I told them I wouldn't buy it for that poor capability and that I would need to see the real 3d capabilities they couldn't be arsed setting up a player.... WTF? lazy bastards. |

Nobody broadcasts it, there are only a few movies with it, apert from all the ones they are converting to 3d - that sounds like a waste of time. I saw an interview with James Cameron and he said a lot of movies are being done badly and giving 3d a bad reputation. | wotz (335) | ||
| 1202958 | 2011-05-18 05:18:00 | I wouldn't buy a TV for the 3D capability. Consider it as a extra feature. Personally haven't seen 3D in action, nor am I bothered with it |

| 1202960 | 2011-05-18 05:29:00 | 50" why so large? Are you going to be sitting more than 10 feet away from the monitor? 3D is a gimmick at this stage :( Fantastic to watch, but still just a gimmick. |
