Two options:
For true HD you need an hdmi cable that runs from the ps3 to the television's hdmi input.
Alternatively, you can use the video adaptor cable (av or yellow, red, white cable: yellow video, red right sound, white left sound) that came with the ps3. PS2's use the same cable. Plug the yellow, red, white cables into the av inputs of your HDTV. You will only have 480i video however. With an hdmi cable you will usually get 780p for games and 1080 for movies.
You can also purchase a PS3 component cable if your HDTV does not have HDMI.

How do you hook up Xbox 360 with PS3 to play on different TVs?
You do not hook up the Xbox 360 with the PS3 they must be connected individually. They can be connected to a switching device and that connected to different TVs if it is complex enough of a switching device to allow the switching at both input and output.
How do you hook a ps3 up to a eyeclops mini projector?
eyeclops is not a TV or a HDTV or a Projector TV and so why would you think it would work as the TV for the PS3. It is a $100 toy that runs on batteries. see related review
Do you need a HD tv for a PS3?
No, you do not. The PlayStation 3 comes with an A/V cable (the cable that has the red, yellow, and white cords) which hooks up perfect to a TV with those slots, HDTV or not. You can buy, however, cords that are HDTV compatible only, with an HD picture (as A/V cables do not support HD).
