As an XBox lover, your HDMI cable (if you are actually using one) really will not matter, but with a PS3, because all signals are HDCP protected over HDMI, any type of interference can cause you to not get an image AT ALL!
Cheap cables, although looking like a HDMI cable may not actually conform to standards set by the HDMI Founders (which does not include Microsoft).

How am i an xbox lover if i have both systems but play neither? I've never bought or watched a blu ray or HD dvd on either although i have the hd player as well. I've yet to see ANY hdmi cable not display a good picture regardless of quality. The only thing you should worry about when buying one is that the ends don't break. Unless you're a videophile or have a 60"+ you're not going to see the marginal difference a better cable "may" give you.
I'm the avg joe i have a 50" sony 1080p and a 42" sony 1080p. one has a monster expensive cable the other has a little cheap 1/4 the cost cable both look exactly the same regardless of what system i plug into either tv. You can get as technical as you want but at the end of the day that's what matters to 99% of us.
You really need to get over your MS vs SONY chip on your shoulder nobody cares but you. And just to piss you off my xbox is WAYYY better than my ps3
