Hey guys, as always a wealth of knowledge here, so this is where I come to get answers. Just got a PS3 the other day, and brought it home and hooked it into my old big screen, you know the one with the speakers on the bottom and weighing close to a tonne?

Anyways been playing MLB The Show 10, and everything on the screen isn't clear, always fuzzy and the bodies of the players look like the have a ghost surrounding them an inch bigger than there actual bodies.

Not a big TV person so I need help. There is no HDMI cables, the only HD outlet is used for my satellite (the bulkier pronged one). The other option being the blue, red and green inlet to the tv, but I don't have the appropriate cables for the PS3 to do it. I played this game at my fiances house, and it looked fine, so I'm not sure the difference.

The TV is running on 1080i, yet in the setting for the PS3 it wont allow me to change it to that setting, just runs on standard. The other option with the cable I chose just the v-cord, and I believe that to be the correct option, as none of the others are right. And selected the 16x9 over the 4x3, which I believe to be right as well? No?

Does anyone have any ideas on what is wrong, or do I just need to upgrade the cables/tv?
