Can I play games in HD right out of the box?

Can I, as soon as i get it out of the box, can i play the games on HD or do i have to buy extra cables?

Also do i have to buy other cables to watch movies on HD?

Are the cables included so i can imediately play and watch in HD (i have an HDTV by the way if that helps)?

First one, I think you need cables.

Second one, no. You don't need other cables to watch movies.

so its $399 forthe consoleand i have to buy cables to use it in HD?

Dont the cables come with the system?

unfortunately sony dont supply the necessary cables to play in HD. they only supply cables to play games at 480P. u can still play games and DVDs (dony know about blu-ray movies) fine with the cables in the box....itll just be at SD resolution.

what u need is a HDMI cable. also make sure ure TV has a HDMI port (it probably does)

No they don't they supply the cables to play at 480i, 480p would be component cables, anything other than SD resolution you have to pay for out of your own pocket.

i guess its the same with a 360 right, it would have been better if it came with the HD cables.

Thanks everybody.

Do you have any idea how much they are?

And that sony component cable will allow me to use HD right?

Nah you need to buy an HDMI cable to watch them in HD. Don't buy it at the stores- too expensive. I suggest eBay or amazon. you can get them for as low as $5.00.

You can get component cables for around $39.99 and probably cheaper if you search around the net/stores.

Yes,component cables allows you to play games and watch movies in HD.

Short Answer: No.cezeon

Yes you do.

You will want HDMI to get the most out of the PS3. You can use the DVD upgrader (upgrades normal DVD's to 1080, it is very nice), and some color enhancements (which also greatly enhances the picture of DVDs and video game graphics) ONLY with HDMI and not component. Deathtransit

Wow thats nice!
