Playing Blu-Ray movies - Blu-ray Forum

Im getting a PS3 next week and I was wondering if I could watch Blu-ray movies on a non-HD TV. I know it's not going to look great because it's not an HD TV. But I dont want to watch all of my movies in the living room where the family TV is.

yes you would just use composite cable. (red,yellow,white cable)

Yes, it will work. At the moment, that's all I have.

yes they will play and yes they look better then DVD (but not as good as they could look on an HD set). I don't remember if the cable that comes with the PS3 has s-video or not, but use the best that you can (I know it has composite and that you can buy component, so if you have the cash and your TV has component then you are better off getting that extra cable unless it is temporary)
