Based on gameplay alone, this is a solid 4.5 even 5 stars. The different modes are in depth, detailed and very interactive as well. The reason why I am deducting 2 stars is because of two issues that the developers MUST fix before I ever consider purchasing another 2K product again. 1. They won't let me use my last name because it's offensive. My name isn't offensive. Heck, their announcer even says my name when I enter it but then blocks it after I hit save. It doesn't even have an offensive word in it, like "Dickson" for example. It's absurd. But even more offensive is 2. The MyCareer mode needs to be corrected to allow more nationalities than just African American. I'm a white guy. I created a white guy with a modified name thanks to #1 above.# I don't have black parents. I don't have a black twin sister. I didn't grow up in Harlem. I don't have a deep, typical African American voice. Etc. Etc. Etc. I am about 100% certain that Asians, Hispanics, Middle Eastern, Indian, etc. etc. also play the game and it would be nice if there was at least an option to adjust some of the mode to fit everyone, or just make it as race neutral as possible. I should've known this would happen after seeing "a Spike Lee joint" but I figured the developers of one of the most popular video games in the world would've tried to make their game inclusive to everyone who played it. I guess I was wrong.

I worked at Best Buy for 3 years in the Home Theater department and technology has certainly come a long way since I left. That being said, one constant remains, there is no picture better than that of a plasma. LED and LCD TV's get all of the hype but at the end of the day, they will never provide the depth in "blacks" like a plasma will. Black is the base color of all colors so the deep black on a plasma makes all colors clearer and more vivid. This TV has one of the best pictures I have ever seen and certainly the best for the money. The only negative I would bring up would be that it only has 2 HDMI inputs. Aside from that, I couldn't be happier with this product. Don't buy the media hype, stick with the best!!!

What is the best way to hook up a soundbar to this tv?
I am curious to know what is the best way to hook up a Samsung soundbar to this tv? Should we hook it up directly to the tv? Or through the Directv box? Or through the DVD player?
Use the digitial coax or fiber optic output on the back of the TV. Then turn off your TV speakers from the menu relying on external speakers only.

will tv sit on a flat service without stand attached? limited room for height
The TV may sit without it's stand but it would be extremely unstable and dangerous. Not reccomended at all.

adjust picture size
how do you adjust picture size? it seems to overlap the screen & the control button doesn't do much - what am I missing?
You can change the picture size from wide fit, 16:9, and two others from the menu/picture screen.
