I have been meaning to ask a question relating the quality of games on my HDTV. I downloaded the Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway demo last night on PS3 and when I played (this is with other games), it looks like there's no AA in BiA and the textures are crap. What I'm asking is... are all HDMI cables the same cause mine wasn't expensive or nothing. Is it the game or the HDMI cable that sucks?

most games on PS3 have little to no AA, so there is nothing wrong with your TV/HDMI cable

PS. this would probably have been better to post in the PS3 Clubhouse

those are just for color and contrast pallets, but yes, those should be at those settings

also Super White doesn't play nice with all TVs (my DLP will display a pink overlay in some games with this enabled)
