No, if its JUST for Gaming i would definatly go for a 4:3 TV as most games still dont feature a 16:9 mode in them. If i had to reccomend a 4:3 i would say the Toshiba 28N03B because it has an S-video, wheras the Panasonic one you meantioed doesnt. IF S-video isnt important to you then go for the one you said, it looks a sound TV.
