xbox 360 vga output
on: January 29, 2009, 23:22:37 PM
Im currently borrowing a friends 360 and am tired of playing it on my old crappy TV and would like to play it on my monitor. However i dont have the adapter and dont really fancy splashing out £20 considering ill have to give the 360 back eventually.
I was wondering if anyone knows of A) a cheaper version of this, or B) a way to make your own?

im afraid i dont really know what websites to look at as im not really up on 360 stuff, so thats why im asking here

Im always wary of these third party cables, ive always had a fuzzy, ghosted picture.
Man up and pay the £20 tbh.

Good advice, got the official MS cable myself and it works great, compared to HDMI the picture is a little whiter I guess.

You can set the output to "expanded" or something, and it makes it more colourful.

I compared a while ago on the old dash, and the VGA just looks whiter than the HDMI both absolutely fine though, dont get me wrong :bowdown:

Ranting at people is a good way not to get advice.
