This 32-inch LCD's film-like color and natural-looking noise reduction together create an eye-popping movie experience. It's gamer-friendly, too: A game mode eliminates annoying HDTV processing delays to keep your Rock Band timing on track. And its impressive 8,000:1 contrast ratio serves up enough detail to target your frag-ready buddies even in the darkest shadows.
WIRED: Lots of ports, including side-mounted A/V jacks for easy camcorder access. Rotating base.
TIRED: Struck out on one of our processing tests, failing to deliver full resolution from a 1080i source.
