im getting a ps3 but i DON'T have a HDTV I have a 32" LCD Tele. i've been hearing because i don't have a HDTV the visuals on my screen won't be clear. is this true. i was told it would help if i bought compenenent cables. also because i don't have a HDTV i no i can't play games in 1080p but does that mean i won't be able to play 420p, 720p etc?

It depends if your LCD is EDTV (Enhanced) or just SDTV (Standard).

 And yes, running games at 480i means that the picture quality will be blurry and less sharp.

Just pretend you didn't say anything. I don't see why PS3 would look bad on you're LCD Tv.

ps3 on an sdtv look very average. once you get it on hdtv though, and are forced to pay extra for hd cables, thats when you will see great picture.

Component is also analog, not to mention most CRT monitors have a better back light than standard HDTVs. I'd have to say no.
