Philips 47PLF9632D
So there you have it; there are many fantastic 32-inch TVs to choose from if you're looking for something cheap and cheerful. But what if you can afford something a bit more upmarket? Philips may have the answer here with its new range of TVs. This 47-inch model is utterly stunning. One of the greatest 47-inch LCD televisions we've ever seen, in fact. 100Hz picture and ground-breaking pixel processing make this TV one to look out for in the shops. Because once you've seen it, you might not be able to resist it. Be prepared to pay well over £1,000 though. Read our full review
Sharp LC-52XD1E
Want to go even bigger than 47 inches? For around £1,500 you can get your hands on this 52-inch LCD TV from Sharp. This enormous TV is an absolute steal at that price, because not only is it massive, it's also fantastic. If you're using component cables with your Xbox 360, one thing to watch out for is that it has no dedicated set of component jacks. For component feeds you have to use a provided adaptor and the PC port; it works fine, as long as you don't want to attach separate PC and component video sources at the same time.

Philips 52PFL9632D
This is the third Philips TV to make the list, which is a testament to how far Philips has come in the TV business. This one will cost you around £2,000, but if you can afford it, it's well worth the cash. Just like the 47-inch Philips model above, this TV is breathtaking. It's brightness and clarity makes it absolutely perfect for playing GTA IV and any other game for that matter. The five-star review says it all. Read our full review
Samsung LE-52F96BD
This brilliant TV from Samsung is proof that it isn't just potent in the low-end TV market. It can make some pretty brilliant high-end TVs too. This 52-inch TV is fairly pricey – it'll cost you over £2,500 – but it's also quite fantastic. It defies the traditional drawbacks of LCD technology to produce a picture only seen formerly in the best plasma TVs. This could well be the best LCD TV ever made. Read our full review
Pioneer PDP-LX508D
We couldn't put this list together without including at least one Pioneer model. Traditionally, LCD TVs are better for gaming simply because they're brighter. Plasma TVs offer far greater contrast ratios, but they often struggle to produce the same brightness as found in LCD TVs from Philips, Samsung and LG. That said, this TV is the king of them all. The best TV on the market, bar none.
At over £3,000 it's very pricey, but you'll not find a better TV anywhere in the world. Great for games. Great for TV. Great for watching movies. If you don't care how much your GTV TV costs, this is the one to get. Read our full review
