Is this a great tv for gaming?

Yes, this even supports 3d gaming. Even though the refresh rate is low, there isn't any noticeable blurring.

It's a great TV for gaming. But I would advise you to look at LG's other models including its 2013 Google TV. LG is my choice of TV and other electronic equipment.

I would use caution using this tv for gaming, mine seems to burn in very easly.

This TV is great for gaming. Great color and the latency lag is ranked amongst the best for this size.

It's great for gaming. Best computer on the market right now for the price point it's at.

I just bought my first HDTV - the Samsung LN37A550, for playing regular movies and my Xbox 360. I did a lot of research before making the commitment, and I decided on this Samsung because of the size (not too big for my living room), the price (just over $1,000 is a great deal) and the features (HDMI hookups, 1080p). Your PS3 outputs games at 1080p, so you should definitely look for that feature to get the most out of it - the PS3 will also play blu-ray movies at 1080p and upconvert regular movies to 1080p over HDMI cables. Look for a set that has a high contrast ratio (the higher the number the more colors will look vibrant and the blacks look darker) and a fast response time (in this case the lower the number the faster, so that games and fast action sequences appear smooth). Most importantly (I think) pick a size that seems right for the room in which you will use it. There's no point dropping $$$$ on a huge TV if you have a small room - HDTV is so much sharper than regular TV, you won't need a massive set to see the benefits. For a bedroom, consider getting something either 32" or 37". Check out the Sharp LC32D64U, the Sharp LC37D62U or the Samsung LN37A550 (the one I ended up buying) for some good models at this size range. Good luck!

To be honest I can not answer that question because I really do not know the answer other than to tell you that it is a 1080p led tv with a outstanding picture for the money!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I do own 2 of these. And Great for video games also.

I think so. Great TV for the price. Hardly a glare, and you can see split screen from any angle.

There's a slight motion blur. I mean SLIGHT. And the blacks aren't that great, but after you get the right settings you can get it pretty close.I have it, I didnt take it back and I'm happy with it. For under $700 you'll be hard pressed to find a tv without a slight blur or some difficulty with fast movements, like in FPS games.I'd recommend spending more money if you want THE gaming TV. This one will do just fine though.

Yeah, it's great. It's not 4k or 120Hz or something, but I have three of these doing eyefinity, and everything looks beautiful. 10/10 would recommend for gamers

Has anyone played games on it?I just bit the bullet and bought the Samsung LN40A550 based on reviews. (Got ps3 for blue ray discs and I watch A LOT of movies.) I also like to play FPS and other games with a lot of movement and action. Has anyone noticed any sort of ghosting or blurring when they play games on it? Bad thing to wonder about AFTER I buy the tv, but I'm sure it'll still be worth it when I see my movies in a new-1080p-light.

Well, I only have the 32 inch model (bought it a few weeks ago) and have to say I really like it. I only use it for TV watching so not sure how it would look with high-end games. Have to say that I watched "Avatar" the other day and it looked crisp, vibrant, sharp on the 32-incher.

Having this TV for a couple of months and playing my PS4 on it, I can say that this is an excellent TV for gaming. There is no motion blur, and it is very high quality. Depending on what games you play can determine which HZ rating you will want. All and all however, it's a great all around TV.

Yeah. It's pretty good for games. You can't always play on the highest resolution.

It can play Skyrim on ULTRA settings, Left 4 Dead 2, quite a few others. No issues with gaming.

I play PS4 (Destiny and Advanced Warefare) on it and it seems great to me. I would recommend getting some type of speakers or head set because the sound on the TV is terrible though.

No. It's a great laptop but not for gaming. I got it for my father who only browses the web and checks email.
