Can i play my PS2 on a huge HDTV?

My cousin moved to ohio and left his 50 something inch tv in the living room. it's very nice and i wonder how espn basketball would look on this beast. anyways, on the back it warned against playing such thing as still images and games.

ive read about screen burns

dont leave the same image on the screen for over 30 min, and you wont have any burn isues

(that goes, for like the scores, and everything else.)

and 30min is playing it way on the safe side.

I've been playing on mine for over a year with the PS2 and Gamecube. Just make sure your contrast is turned down to a decent level.

It's easy to cause burn in on RPTV's with games, especially if the TV has not been calibrated.

When you play, make sure contrast and brightness are turned down, and you don't display a static screen for very long.

I've been playing PS2 on my 51" Hitachi for 7 months now. I just make sure and turn it off when I'm not around. I've even got my 6 year old trained to turn off the TV when leaving the room and not to let one static image stay up for a long time.
