If you have a HDTV and it is connected to the PS3 with the Sony A/V cable that came with the PS3 you are not getting HD. Replacing the A/V cable with a HDMI or PS3 component will allow the PS3 to greatly improve the picture quality and Blu-Ray disc movies will look better on the HDTV than any HDTV program ever did. The reason is because the HDTV TV Programs are only 720P and the Blu-Ray is 1080P
