So I've got this big 42" LCD tv that I've been using less and less. The display lag on it is so bad that I won't even play SFIV on it anymore, so you can imagine how awful it is for classic games. So let's say I want something in my entertainment system I can use for more than just blu-rays, what models should I be looking at?
After searching around for some time and hearing that Sony TVs were the best bet I found this site: http://www.hdtvtest.co.uk/news/input-lag which has input lag tests on tons of TVs. However it's for the UK, and models like the KDL42W705 with it's 16ms input lag aren't available to us here in the states, the closest I can find is the KDL40W600b which more than double that lag (and is also a 40" as sony isn't selling 42" TVs here any more for some reason.)
What's worse, NONE of these TVs have VGA input for the dreamcast goodness.
Any one have any suggestions of particularly good TVs when it comes to Input Lag, XRGB-MINI support, Picture quality, VGA etcetera, that still support HD?
I realize it's always a sharp downgrade when you aren't using a proper CRT, but I would love to find some sort of middle ground.
