Wow, you respond quite fast
Anyways, to answer that,yup. Apparently, some manufacturers nowadays seem to market the 2-ms response time on their newer models (using Grey-to-grey). The common tactic indeed to easily fool the common folk......but whatever gets them sales I guess
Plasma sets seem to handle quite well (in some cases like in Panasonic or Pioneer plasma TVs, they are equal to CRTs in this department). Earlier downsides though of plasma include green phophor lag (on earlier generations of plasma TVs, you can see these green phosphor trails if you're eyes are keen on detail). Though the most problematic of all if burn-in (or as they call it right now: Image Retention). Good news is that it can be overcome though with newer models having better panels and better processing engines.
For LCD though, it is mostly motion lag that is notorious among LCD TVs. Interestingly though, newer TVs use motion interpolation techniques by increasing refresh rate (though in the case of PS2 games, this might not do much). Another problem unique to LCD TVs seems to be the concern of off-axis viewing.......as well as poor black levels (though LCD TVs using LED backlights seem to correct this problem
)
