Someone educate me...yet another HDTV thread

First of all, I've been through all the HDTV threads here and a number of the links provided and I still really don't have any idea what the snot I'm supposed to be looking for...

I've been kind of putting off buying a new television for a while. HDTV is nice, but I really couldn't justify dropping that kind of cash on such a thing for myself.

However, I was looking at the local Wal-Mart circular, which just happened to have a set of HDTVs for under $1000.

So, I guess my question is...being the ever pragmatic person that I am..what's wrong with these televisions?

52" RCA widescreen
51" Magnavox
and
51" Phillips from Circuit City

I don't need it to great things and I'm not looking to dangle on the cutting edge, but I'd kind of like a new television. I'm not looking to do anything fancy, just play video games and watch some television.

I'd really like an educated opinion on the matter because while $1000 is certainly doable, I'd like it to be spent well rather than flushed down the confusing acronym and mind-numbing technical lingo toilet.

Thanks in advance
