Although this one is still a little pricey, it is half the cost of a majority of these cables. It is very solid and durable and I've had no problems with it so far. This will output 1080p from your PS3 to your HDTV(if your TV supports it). If that is what you are looking for then you should purchase this. However, you can find cheaper ones if you really look. This one seemed like the best choice to me and I have no regrets!

This review is from: Playstation 3 Monster Cable GameLink HDMI Digital Video/Audio Cable (Video Game)

Long story short, buy it and don't think about it. Here is my story:

Just bought a ps3 and a HD TV (samsung - 32 inch - 1080p), and I was a little dissipointed. The picture was a bit better than my old flatscreen, but not as good as I had expected. I was even getting little flickers across the screen in thin lines. Someone suggested a better cable than the $16.00 HDM1 cable I was using. I Figured, OK, why not? I bought this cable and my jaw dropped at the difference. All flickering noise gone, for starters. Colors brighter, images sharper (by far) and the audio even improved. If you have a PS3 and HD TV with 1080p, I assure you this cable is worth the money. You will see an astounding improvement in both your DVD or Blue Ray discs, and of course your games as well (I have been playing Call of Duty 5, and the difference in image quality is significant). --Mykal Banta

This is a great cable and works great. It's a little pricey though. I hooked up my 2 PS3 systems side by side on the same 2 TV's to see about if cable quality makes a difference. On one I had the monster cable and on the other one I had the HDMI Mediabridge Ultra Series. I couldn't see the difference between the 2. I did end up keeping the Monster Cable though since I didn't want to package it up to send it back. If you are looking at these go buy the Mediabridge Ultra Series and save some money b/c no one is going to see them. Now if you want the bragging rights and the have the money by all means you can buy the monster version. I have two home theather setups in my home. One has monster which is in the living room (was the first one I put together a couple years back) and the other one with the Mediabridge which I just got done with redoing the room with theather seating.
