The primary advantage of DLP is lower cost for large screen sizes however both Plasma and LCD are closing the price gap more every year.

Well, with 3D, you actually want to get closer to your screen. The more it takes up part of your peripheral vision, the better. I don't have a DLP, but my Samsung legacy 3D plasma does Checkerboard, and it would be an even lower true resolution than the 1080p DLP's (1360 x 768, and then checkerboard). The thing is, when I was playing the Avatar game on the Xbox 360, I honestly didn't notice any kind of dramatic reduction in resolution while playing the game in 3D. I played the game both in 2D and 3D, and you'd think the huge drop in resolution would be more noticeable, but it really wasn't. It seemed pretty much the same. I know that doesn't make sense, but that was my impression.
