|  Ps3 Video Game Issues I have an 80gb PS3 and when I play some games they seem to look very dark at times even when its not a dark scene and not clear. Do you think its the HDMI cable im using? Im currently using one I got from monoprice.com for 2 dollars back in August. Maybe a Monster HDMI cable would solve these problems. |

 |  Re: Ps3 Video Game Issues Maybe you need to set the contrast/brightness of the PS3 or the TV. A Monster cable is no different from a $2 one and is the same as a coat hanger.

| Re: Ps3 Video Game Issues Which games are we talking about? Some are very dark and most games themselves have adjustable brightness in their options settings.

 | Re: Ps3 Video Game Issues A lot of games will have a brightness control as well. If you had a faulty HDMI cable you would likely just have no or intermittent picture.
