Ah 'panel' - says it all...
Arnold Messi talks a lot of crap, I recommend always ignoring his advice...
P.S. He has a GT50, hes just too gutless to back down from trying to big himself up

I had a Panasonic Plasma back when 1080p full HD plasmas hit the market. TH 42PZ700BA - I use it in my spare bedroom after my ex missus ran off with it a few years ago and then gave it back to me. It got to be knocking on for 8 or 9 years old by now. Its a heavy, cabinet based plasma but it was very good in the day and still holds up well today. I had a Ps3 connected to it for years and used it with a xbox360 at one time. Don't remember if this set had a gamemode, but then I never noticed lag, I never noticed lag until I got a Samsung UE42 5500 but using gamemode soon reduced this - I used it with a Ps4 and a Wii u for a while until that ended up in the master bedroom for me to watch netflix and Plex whilst in bed. Problem with gamemode on the samsung it messed up RGB, so using PC mode fixed this but the image looked so washed out, and just not right at all.. Decided the samsung wasn't really a very good gaming set IMO and decided to change.
Got a Sony KDL 48W8 or something based on the over whelming feedback on how good a gaming set the Sony KDLs are, its a W8 series I think, I get confused with Sony and the KDL range, but its got a gamemode and I have the Wii u, Ps3 and Ps4 all set to use Gamemode and the Sky is set to cinema or something.. RGB is perfect with it, no crushed blacks and about as perfect an image I've ever seen for gaming, no lag. Top marks.
Thing is, I use Plex on the Sony via Ps4 and even with gamemode, the picture looks fine to me, but the input lag from the Sony is virtually nonexistent. So yes, gamemode goes make a difference. But sadly for some sets at a cost to picture quality.
Friend has an LG set, bloody awful when I tried it to play games, I tried to ask him if he'd calibrated it correctly or set up gamemode, the crushed blacks were horrendous - he shrugged it off and said its fine.. Everytime I go round, I see the crushed blacks when hes got his games console on. Each to their own, I noticed the lag, he didn't when playing zen pinball, on his LG the flippers lagged when you press the bumpers, he didn't notice it, but I did..
