ooshie, a HDMI cable is an HDMI cable, there is absolutely no difference between the official PS3 HDMI cable and the one that ben got. I can easily get an HDMI cable for under $20. So dont get fooled by their advertising by branding it as the PS3 HDMI cables.
I use the component cables for my 360, its a pain in the ass to use a HDMI cable with a surround sound receiver for 5.1 sound. HDMI cables support 5.1 sound, but since the HDMI cable needs to connected to the TV, you also need to have optical cables going from the TV to the receiver. Also my TV accepts 1080p over the component cables, which made even less reason to want to use an HDMI cable.
Also, doesn't the PS3 come with the needed cables?
