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 |

plasmas are notorious for it as well as rear projection TVs... they say right in the manuals that whatever warranty on the TV does not cover burn-in and that video games should not be played on them... but honestly, they are just covering their asses.
