I would suggest checking out the FAQ section since your questions are covered in detail there.

WRT burn-in, if you don't keep any static, high contrast patterns on a plasma for extended periods you will be fine.

I'd go LCD that's 1080P capable. My son is a gamer (PS3) and the display has been great. No worries about burn-in.
