    Items list says it includes 3d Shutter Glasses, which would mean it's active shutter 3d.

    yeah I had their last 55 inch (not 3d) for a couple days, and it really didn't handle games very well - probably attributed to the high response time …got it refunded with their 7 day money back guarantee

      considering its 100/120HZ its odd that the response time is so bad…i'd imagine it would make the 3d worse?

        Its not just about the response time.
        The image scaler, and any other post-image processing makes more of a difference towards actual input lag.

        As far as i know, using 3d makes some games unplayable. Fighting games for example.

        Refresh rate /= response time…

        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Response_time_(technology)
        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refresh_rate

        Stolen from a google search
        "The refresh rate is the number of times the image is displayed per second and the response time is how fast the pixals go from white to color. The higher the hz the better the refresh rate The less milliseconds there are the better the response time."

        yeah. None of the quoted figures manufacturers give you actually matter in terms of gaming lag.

        The only important figure is input lag in ms.
        This can only be accurately measured with a crt tv and a camera capable of 60fps (i think). In any case, a good camera is required.

    yeah exactly.. ive had a couple of kogan tvs now. they sound good on paper and are tempting with the price, but i wouldnt go near one again.. they lack the refinement of name branded tvs.
