Morning Discussion
by Alice O'Connor, Jan 31, 2011 5:00am PSTHello again, The Internet. I was away on Friday at the London indie games conference A Winter World of Love, which was quite lovely. If you eat your vegetables, do all your chores and behave with the utmost politeness, perhaps I'll tell you a little more about it.
I was tempted to join a post-conference game jam over the weekend but felt a little worse for wear so I ended up reading and writing instead. I ploughed through Heart of Darkness (some curious prequel novelisation of Far Cry 2), got well into the astonishingly astonishing BLDGBLOG Book and was delighted to discover that the stories of Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips' crime comics series Criminal tie into each other in small ways. Many things are enjoyable, aren't they? Oh, and I think I played a little Jade Empire but I'm not quite sure because there seemed to be bad shmup sections and that seems unlikely in a BioWare RPG--it's possible I was delirious.
Speaking of indie games, voting has opened for the 2011 Independent Games Festival Audience Award. As a member of the audience, you can vote for one of the IGF finalists to receive a special shiny prize. Hop to it, then.
With a budget of up to $5000, what is the best HDTV Shackers recommend that includes 3D, 65" Size, 1080P 240Hz?
I found these two so far, wondering what you guys think:

There is also a GT30 series coming out which will be cheaper. According to the person at CES I spoke with, the electronics and panels are the same between the VT and GT series. The real difference is that the VT sets have slightly darker glass, which allow for slightly deeper black levels.
We'll see how the prices shake out, but the GT may be the sweet spot.
