"The Pioneer PDP-5020FD produces the deepest level of black we've ever seen among TVs larger than 11 inches.... Speaking of color, the Pioneer isn't as accurate as we'd like to see, and its Smooth picture mode introduces numerous artifacts, but in most other areas it's a superb performer."
"As a side benefit for those who like to watch their favorite movies again and again, viewing them on a display as big as the 60" PDP-6020FD gives you the ability to see details that may not be evident on a smaller TV. For example, I found myself watching the expressions on actors in the background of a scene."
"But what moves me most are those stealth moments when you are caught up in the movie and slowly a sensation starts snaking up your spine and then you quietly realize how divine the picture looks. It's transcendent."

Gaming show formula
Refresh Rate is the most important characteristic for gaming.
Next we factor in the screen type. LCDs are the best because they have the highest resolution. Plasmas have lower resolution and are prone to "burn-in," and OLEDs have the lowest resolution.
Lastly we add our Picture Quality score to complete the picture.
