What's a rear projection TV?

[Jxames]

Theres like a projector in the back of it and it projects images from there.

Wrong section also.

[GoldSolid]

Hmm, not really wrong section because he was asking whether they were good for gaming or not.

They're terrible for gaming as they suffer badly from screen burn. Where if you play a game for a while the HUD could be permanetly "burned" into the screen so you would always see its shadow, regardless of what you're watching.

Oops, sorry.

[awelsh]

you need a decent amount of room to sit away from it also becuase otherwise it will look really bad and dull.

their the same as normal non hd tv's anyway I think, never really seen the point of them.

These aren't really used for home use. Mostly proffesionally used for company ect.
