If your into sports then 120hz is good for that though. Currently 120hz its mostly there to sell tv’s. I say this because because the 120hz technology is not good enough yet. That’s what i have read recently anyway. 120hz for gaming will add lag from that extra processing and only if the TV does 5:5 pulldown will movies look much smoother with it. If your going to get a 120hz Tv make sure you see it in action first. Some are good and some not so good. I know someone that bought one and doesnt ever use the mode. lol

For most people, including me and Mr. Katzmaier, it’s very difficult to see the impact that “faster” LCD sets have on picture quality. We spent some time in our AV lab watching various source material from 120Hz TVs and 240Hz models and it’s really hard to detect any difference (it’s hard to detect any difference between 120Hz and 60Hz models, too). To be clear, I’m referring here to motion-blur reduction because of faster refresh rates, not to dejudder processing, which smooths out motion and makes film-based material shot at 24fps look more video-like. When dejudder is engaged, you can easily spot its impact on the picture. (It’s also worth mentioning that the dejudder processing on the 240Hz TVs we tested so far wasn’t any better–or worse–than than the dejudder on 120Hz TVs).
