I've heard that hooking up, say an xbox, to a big screen tv will damage it. Is this true or just a myth? We have a 53" rear projection, 2 tuner tv, and a Bose Lifestyle surround sound system that I've been DYING to play some forza on! I'll turn the system off when I'm done playing it, and I won't be playing for very long periods of time (2 hours at a time max).
Thanks, -Josh |

yea the older big screens had burn in but only if left on for hours on end and continuous image display. which is why you can see "INSERT COIN (0/4)" on most arcade games. it was the only thing left on the screen through all the intros.
