My friend has a Samsung PNC8000 series plasma and ya know, they say that thing is hard to beat in terms of overall quality and features.

Set everything in the picture adjustment menu at 50% or less and just let it run full screen material (no black bars or static logos) continuosly for like several hours each day for at least a whole month.
During this time, try to avoid playing videogames on it that will display stationary objects on the screen like life meters and ammo counters.
After like the first 150-200 hours of break-in time, you should be good.

@kenjuma pioneer sold to panasonic and pioneer wasnt exactly thin soo i guess in order to get the technology to fit the make the tv bigger. And also kuro was aimed at people hu cared bout picture quality and not so much about how it looks in there house (i have one of each and an LG (very thin) but if i put them all next to each other, the LG is very shit (it cost £1500 so it wasnt exactly bad) but pioneer is the best but i only use it to play games and watch movies other wise i use panasonic.

Check 2:30 for it's thinness. Plasma's càn too be thin. Why doesn't Panasonic have these, makes you wonder....
-
do you need to break-in the tv? if yes, how do you do that? low brightness, contrast? solid pictures in different color to stress pixels equally? how?

@lgpk950 I'm also considering LED, and quattron technology is taking off and actually looks incredible. Visit a local tv store to see for yourself.
I'm thinking of either getting either the LG 60PK950, Panasonic G25 "54 or Samsung PN58C6500. Which would you recommend?
I play video games (Xbox 360) and watch blu-rays and DVDs.

@masteryummy Well, there's some preference involved here. The lg pk950 has been said to be the best performing plasma this year. The advantage of plasma being that the picture doesn't fade when you stand at an angle. In regard to blue ray, the lgpk950 is also supposed to handle them correctly at 1080p. So you should get a good picture, both for movies as well as games I'd imagine.

@lgpk950 As far as the Panasonic G25 ( amazon.com/dp/B00392147E/?tag=248739-20 ), unfortunately, it's been said that it does not handle 1080p sources correctly. So your blue-ray experience may be less that would you would get with the pk950. However, as a PRO on the G25, it's been said that it delivers better black levels than the pk950. The g25 also is said to have a very good anti-reflective screen.

I'm moving out of my parents next year, I do own a late 2009/early 2010 Sharp Aquos 60" LCD, but I'm a movie person. During the Day my LCD has incredible blacks, but at night you notice the backlighting. While still a high end tv(it should be..it was over 3000 dollars!) But I prefer Plasma as I am a Movie going guy.

@MysticTrunksHQ Yeah, it's nice how plasma can deliver a good picture at all those different angles. You don't have to sit right in front of the tube to see it the way it was meant to be seen. However to be fair, the pk950's picture is said to get a little blue-ish with near black colors and it's yellow and cyan are said to be a little off too.
