hdmi + ps3=???????

im buying a PS3 soon and i need to know if i need a HDMI cable?? my tv is a Weslington 720p. or could/should i just run the PS3 without the cable?

Answer:

Because normal cables would run 480i, you would in fact need a HDMI cable, 780p is "considered" Hi-Definition. Yes you do need the hdmi cable if you want to use it. I%26#39;m not sure about the tv you are referring to. Maybe the Westinghouse? The hdmi cable is going to give you the best signal. It%26#39;s the best digital audio/video that you can use plus it%26#39;s only a single cable. If it%26#39;s too expensive then there are other options like component video, s-video, and regular composite cables. You would still have to buy them separately as they seem to be a proprietary sony cable. I did some research about the different ways to connect my PS3 to my entertainment system and found this article. Its explains every way to connect and is pretty through.

While you dont need HDMI to enjoy playing your PS3, i always want the latest and greatest equipment so i bought a HDMI cable for 10 bucks. There are a number of online stores that offer HDMI 1.3 cables so its definately worth shopping around for.

I personally bought mine here,
