As always seems to be the case with Panny plasmas, if there’s one picture element that stands out above of all the rest, it’s black level response. We’ve never seen any other flat TV brand deliver blacks with the same killer combination of total darkness and subtle shadow detailing. This means that while playing, say, Prey on the Xbox 360, the game’s darkest corners look pitch black rather than a murky grey as they do on most flat TVs - yet you can still comfortably make out the sort of subtle shading and background details in dark areas that make the image more three-dimensional, believable and involving.
