Customer Review: brilliant
This is what you need to get HD if you have one of the early 360’s or a core system (these systems are not HDMI enabled). This however, does not matter as the product is easy to connect and gives a great picture. The 360 is very good playing in 1080i now!
Customer Review: Great alternative to the hdmi slot/cable
Last Year I bought an LCD TV/Monitor to replace the old small Standard TV in my bedroom. The main thing I use the screen in my room for is playing my Xbox 360 which is capable of outputting HD graphics. But before I got my new TV I was only playing standard definition graphics through a standard component cables anyway. Unfortunately , my new LCD Widescreen TV/moniter didn’t display the 360s graphics as sharply as my old standard definition TV. The image seemed a lot more blurry than my old TV. Luckily on the same day I decided to buy the official Microsoft HD VGA cable for 360, and it fixed this problem and now all my games are displayed in gorgeous HD and running at 720i/p. The image is alot sharper than through my old standard component cables. This cable is also great alternative if you don’t have the HDMI slot ( alot of the older 360 batch models including the most of the ” Core ” packages , will not have a HDMI slot. ) on your 360 or your TV/moniter. Luckily my new TV/monitor had the VGA input/output socket just like all other PC monitors , so I was able to restore picture sharpness even though both my console and Screen have no support for HDMI. So basically what I’m trying to say , this is the choice for you , if your Display unit or 360 doesn’t have the HDMI slot. Buying this cable have been one of my best spending decisions for my 360 gaming ! You can still enjoy sharp graphics on a widescreen LCD/plasma even without HDMI !
