Hi Guys, I have played FM and before it CM since I was about 11 and am looking forward to both the new versions (360 & PSP). My question is because alot of content in FM is static screens will there be any issues with screen burn or image retention on plasma screens? I have a 42" Panasonic PV500 and don't have any problems with othe games, but those are all racers, sports or fps's. Any info would be great!

Shouldn't be a problem at all - 'burn in' and such like only happens when certain types of monitor/TV are left of the same image for a long long time (you're talking umpteen hours) ... which isn't applicable to playing any game really.

(also the 360 has a 'screensaver' to help avoid this sort of problem so if its accidentally left idle on a TV which could exhibit this problem it doesn't matter anyway)

thanks for the help guys! Will look forward to both versions. I am going away for 3 weeks from the 12th, any chance you can get me a copy of FM PSP early so I can play it on the flight?

I have a 46" Samsung DLP tv (i.e. not plasma), and it runs amazing on it.

It's not the same at my house....

On the PC - sitting on a chair hunched over a keyboard

On the Sammy 50" DLP - Reclining in a big fat recliner with feet up and an ale on the end table.

I like PC gaming but I think this is going to work really well.
