Your question is too broad mate.

What I think is superb quality picture, you may think is shite and vice versa.

I can't comment on LED for gaming, as I have only ever owned 42" LCD screens, and wouldn't buy anything that wasn't FullHD (1920x1080 native res) and had a good response time.

The 2 screens I own both fit this criteria and both give amazing picture quality when running from a HD source (PS3/360/PC etc).

One word of warning is to check the screen does FullHD over all inputs, as some only do it via HDMI and lock other inputs (VGA/DVI) to a lower res like 1366x768.

avforums.com is a place I always head to when wanting to research any type of new equipment I'm thinking of buying :)

I have a 42" LG too, LD Series and with a IR remote hack (or phone) I was able to unlock the ability to play more movie formats through the USB port, including 1080p .mkv files.

Yours might come with it already enabled, but if not have a check :)
