lol, i don't know why you guys are so worked up i even said before i'm not ruling out that it could be just the tv.. you guys are just all so worked up cuz your precious wii wii is being slandered.

it IS possible that the images were too graphically intensive for the tv, thus blowing the bulb. If any of you have had the ps2/xbox system, you know that there were numerous problems with the systems leaving images burned onto screens, and in some cases burning out the bulb because of the amount of digital images being processed onto the screen.

Yes i don't have an engineering/tv repair man degree... (thank god). but this is my observation, and i just find it typical how people overreact.

now i know people are gonna flame me, and what not, but i could care less what you think. i've made my observation

Flame away!

Too late, we all know you're a moron now. No real fun in pointing out common knowledge.

sooo you refuse to use logic and reason and prefer to just make things up?

it IS possible that the images were too graphically intensive for the tvwatching the news is just as hard on your tv as playing ANY gaming system.

If any of you have had the ps2/xbox system, you know that there were numerous problems with the systems leaving images burned onto screens,
that can definately happen... but only if you leave it only for days at a time without changing what is on the screen.

and in some cases burning out the bulb because of the amount of digital images being processed onto the screen.
i would love to see some type of proof of this. please stop making things up.

Yes i don't have an engineering/tv repair man degree... (thank god).
do you have a degree?

This guy talks sense. When my dad went to the Sony Centre he was gonna get a Rear Projection TV, but the guys told him that the bulbs need replacing every 8-12 months to keep it in good working order. We got an LCD instead, but if you go to buy a TV, maybe ask about the cons, huh?

He was just shooting some people in CoD3, then all of a sudden we hear a pop, and then the tv went black. The power light is still on, but there is no display anymore

You should ask a professional in your area about this sort of thing rather than a bunch of flamers on a forum.

To say something like this on a forum that is built of 98% fans of the Wii (that's only because the other 2% have dead accounts) is suicide.
Sucks about your misfortune mate, but yeah, go see the one that retailed you the TV, but don't mention anything about the Wii possibly being responsible for it (if you do that, they'll immediately agree with you and try to persuade you that they're not liable for replacement or refunding).

Looks like someones never been on a forum. Heres the rundown. People have opinions. They dont always match yours. Especially when you act like a retard. Then when you do act as such, these people get annoyed, thus incurring their wrath. You bring it upon yourself.
