How to use iMac 27" (Mid-2011 Model) as a monitor for my PS3?

I really want to play my PS3 that I bought for new years on my iMac, since my HDTV got destroyed on New YEars Eve by a couple of inebriated friends.
Can anyoen please guide me on how I can do this. ATM, I do own a thunderbolt to HDMI-port cable. Would that be sufficient? IF not, what do I need to purchase and how do I connect it all up?



Thanks in advance!

iMac, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2), 3.1 Ghz i5 Quad-Core

Sorry it cannot be done, please carefully read Target Display Mode 2011 & Later iMacs.
