Why is the PS3 version incredibly dark(mainly in the menu screen)

Does the PS3 version have more jaggs, blurry textures than 360? (It seems like it, I have the PS3 version and played the 360)

I don't know about this particular problem, but I originally bought PS3 version but got it exchanged to 360 version immediatly after I played one game on PS3. The graphics on PS3 were ridiculous and so disappointing, and PS3 is the one with HDMI cable. I am pretty satisfied with how the game looks on 360 now.

This is always the case with PS3 to 360. I've seen multi plat games on systems and I've always noticed that the PS3 is generally darker than its 360 counterpart. It seems like the 360 handles contrast much better, and I've tried on on THREE different TV sets.

I'll give the slight edge to the 360 in terms of handling black levels. Are they better graphically? On multi plat games, I'd say yes... but then again I've seen Metal Gear and Uncharted 2 which definitely blows away anything the 360 has to offer graphics wise.

I do have RGB set at FULL. It is very dark (mainly in the menu) and a lot of jaggs

NO! Do not set RGB at Full unless your TV supports it. Check the Internet for "Brightness Level" images to properly calibrate your set. This was a mistake I made when I had my first HDTV and it basically just lowered the brightness and maxed out contrast to unreal levels. Believe me, don't set it at Full please.

Hm. The reason why I had it set on FULL, is because someone told me without it, colors looked washed out (especially on multi-plat games). What about the mode under RGB, Y/something/something White? Should I turn that on? or keep it off?

RGB should be set to full if the TV setting is set to low black levels, and vice-versa.

Well, that's on my tv at least.

I switched from FULL to Limited, and its A LOT better, a lot brighter. Looks like 360 version

I also upped the res to 1080p which took care of jags and made things a lot more clear. There are still texture blurs, but that's the consequence of owning multiplat games on PS3
