You do know that composite is only going to be 480i. You can use component cables and get a 720p signal which is +95% of what most games run their resolution on.

Also, I'm sorry that Uncharted is only worth playing because of the graphics.

True, but you still get the analogue signal degradation and interference problems with component (even worse with composite) regardless of resolution, which is something that gloriously digital HDMI doesn't suffer.

As for your U2 comment, if you have two options, play a great game with great graphics, or play a great game with crap graphics, which would you pick. Crap graphics just to save $10 over the life of your PS3?

For a 6ft run, you don't get much degradation at all and most people won't notice a difference. I'd still get HDMI as it is the same price.

I would play the game and enjoy it now and pick up another cable at my next earliest convenience. I happen to play the PS3 over at my in-laws on a SD TV and a SD TV would never stop me from enjoying a good game.
