Hellgate trailer on Sharp 37″ LCD TV


Hellgate: London trailer showing on a Sharp 37″ LCD TV. Running on the Dragonware Envy S-9600 gaming computer.

I am looking at a pair of tv’s, a philips 32pfl5322d, and a sharp lc-32sh12u. Both are 32 inch lcd’s, and they are about the same price, 750-800. the main spec differences i can see are that the philips has 3200:1 contrast, while the sharp has 1200:1 contrast, and the sharp has a response time of 6ms while the philips has 8ms. the philips is slightly brighter.

i will mainly be using it to watch tv (sd for now, maybe ill get hd in a little bit), xbox 360, and dvds (i only have upconverting, no hd dvd or blu ray)

Which tv is better? are the contrast ratio and response time differences significant?
