If firmware still doesn't fix it, post back a reply with the exact model number of your TV and we can try and take another stab at this.

BTW, this doesn't belong in the Games section.

P.S. Best Buy guys have no idea what they're talking about. Never ever take their advice. If you paid more than $15 for your HDMI cable you were ripped off.

First off. thanks to everyone who is tryin to help, it is VERY GREATLY APPRECIATED, i cant even sleep thinkin my equipment is messed up!

The TV model number is LC-42D62U , it is a 1080P TV with my PS3 updated to version 1.90.

Also, I might be wrong , but I cant believe that the director wanted 300 to look like this on my TV, or anyones, its too grainy (i guess), and only some parts look right- also, when u watch 300, it kind of flashes the picture, im sorry my technical jargon is not upto par, but this is eh best way I can explain it, any more thoughts or help ??
