vizio 40 lcd

I am determined to get a LCD HDTV with full 1080p 40-50 in. What i can't get over is what brand to get.?
What I would love is for someone to help me get more info on what brand would be the best for me. I would use the Tv mainly for Xbox 360 games, Hd Dvd movies and mayby somthing else. I am looking at all brands and really like Tosiba, Sharp, Sony, Samsung. But are these really better than brands like Westinghouse, Vizio, and others like that (to me they seem like they are a little playskool to me)
Any info on what you would do, why and what you have would be great
thanks!

You will receive quite a few subjective responses to this question. If you want an objective answer, get the February issue of Consumer Reports which reviews a large number of sets.
Besides the question of performance, you have to consider reliability and after warranty repair support.
Some of the lower tier sets are called disposable TVs because you can't get them repaired after the warranty period.
As for my subjective opinion, the Sony sets are generally top rated. Because of the large number sold, it is unlikely you will run into a problem getting repair parts during the life of the set.
The top tier sets definitely outperform the lower tier sets you mention-just look at the professional reviews.
