Just curious about how the games look through VGA cables compared to Component...i hear that component has better colors and what not...this true? How does the 360 look through VGA?
[QUOTE=''-Maddog-'']Just curious about how the games look through VGA cables compared to Component...i hear that component has better colors and what not...this true? [/QUOTE]not true. with the spring '07 update, you can adjust the black level from the display options. setting it to ''expanded'' now gives you the same black level and color fidelity as component but being that it's VGA, you'll also enjoy the 1:1 pixel mapping.How does the 360 look through VGA?
They look just fine over here. With the new spring update, there's a new option in the display section for ''Reference Levels.'' Make sure you set it to ''Expanded'' to darken the colors back to normal (on certain monitors you will need this option). Resolutions available include: 640x480, 848x480, 1024x768, 1280x720, 1280x768, 1280x1024 (what I use on every game except Oblivion), 1360x768, 1920x1080. You should be good to go if you have the VGA HD/AV cable.

Can you purchase Xbox 360 AV cables and ...
I've been looking for a Xbox 360 on ebay and have found many come without AV cables or power cords, can your purchase the standerd AV cable, and a power cord? Where can you? Also is the power cord for the first Xbox the same as the power cord for the Xbox 360?
M$ should fix your broken 360 for free, ...
Microsoft should be responsible for fixing broken xbox 360s for free, even without a warranty.....The Uniform Commercial Code, which applies to the sale of goods, has an a term that is implied by the operation of law, even if it does not appear on the face of the contract. It is called the ''Implied Warranty of Merchantability''. This implied warranty states that goods are fit for ordinary use. Here, there is a known defect in the console; therefore, by this implied warranty in the UCC, Microsoft should be responsible for covering the cost to fix their product because they are technically in breach of this warranty.I just finished my first year of law school and learned about this implied warranty. Plus, you don't really have to know what you are talking about. Just get a manager on the phone and start yelling legal jargon and you should get your xbox fixed for free.I know Microsoft has ridiculous lawyers that have written up their contract agreements, BUT the managers will not know anything about the law, and you can easily get **** for free if you are annoying enough. M$ should fix your broken 360 for free, ...
Seems to me that anyone buying a 360 would know about the problems and purchase an extended warranty. $40 is a small price to pay for peace of mind.M$ should fix your broken 360 for free, ...
i think they do if u know how to work them over right. my friends`s launch 360 just died and he got it fixed for free...
lol Well if my 360 breaks again which hopefully it doesnt I will try that. They will never own up completly to the breaking consols because they make allot of money off of people sending their consols in.

Does VGA Cable go with any monitor?
im going to college next year, and im am getting a pc and bringing my 'box with me. im glad to know i can just connect my 360 to my pc monitor via the VGA cable, instead of having to buy another tv(which i wouldnt do). but do all current PC monitors(im maybe getting a Dell computer) have the VGA inputs? I'd hate to buy a PC and find out my monitor wont connect to my 360Does VGA Cable go with any monitor?
Usually, 9 times out of 10. It doesn't hurt to check with the model number though.Does VGA Cable go with any monitor?
I'm sure you have already purchased it or you're planning on purchasing it but make sure you actually buy the xbox360 vga cable.
Most have VGA inputs. Just check the specs before you buy.natural cosmetics

........Banjo Kazooie 3 for the 360. I heard that it was coming out this year but there's absoloutely no information on this game at all. Has it been canceled, or we can we expect some info on it at E3?A certain game that appears to have been ...

why would anyone care about this game?
[QUOTE=''fatmir50'']why would anyone care about this game?[/QUOTE]
Why? Good greif, cos it's an amazing platforming series. And the 360 needs some good platformers..
I had fun with banjo kazooie on the n64
[QUOTE=''fatmir50'']why would anyone care about this game?[/QUOTE]There will be people who care. I'm not one of them though. RARE use to be one of the best developers around. They aren't as good as they use to be. Maybe they should try to get back some of the guys that moved to Free Radical.
i played the first one on 64 (least i think it's the first)was a fun game all around with lots of good puzzles and plenty of hours of gameplay.not sure if it's still gonna get released but ign.com has one trailer...http://media.xbox360.ign.com/media/015/015334/vids_1.html
I rather play conker.
It will be released, but i highly doubt this year. We haven't seen anything more about it and even if it did come out this year it would be a horrible time for it to do so. This is already has too many highly anticipated games and Banjo-Kazooie (if more details are given) would be hidden on a console that is a console for ''mature/hardcore'' gamers. If it was going onto the Wii then this year would be a great year for its release, but even still we have seen almost nothing more about it than the first trailer.As i said before i truly believe it will not be canceled... mainly for the reason that Microsoft wants to get all types and ages of gamers to the 360 and Rare is their way to doing so. My opinion (yes i said MY opinion) is that all Rares games, while not selling extremely well or mabye even well, have all been good games. While they arn't up to par with their N64 games they still show the was Rare is capable and personally i would rather play Viva Pinata right now over Gears.
I highly believe we'll see something at E3. I don't think they'll release it this year because it might slip under the radar with all these big titles coming out.
I can't wait for this game. Hopefully it will live up to the the N64 titles. In my opinion Mario had nothing on the Banjo-Kazooie series.
i neva played it but diddy kong racing from RARE was way underrated so banjo would get a look from me on the 360 good ? gamer duuude
Heck yes! I want that and another Conkers. The Xbox version owned but I liked the old Conker's multiplayer more.
Ya i would like a new conker. I loved the online for the xboxes conker i played that for a long time
I tottally spaced this game it looks like it will be really good but I need to play the first 2 games before that one but hopefully it doesn't pull a starcraft:ghost or duke nukem (will take) forever (to come out).
I just dont know about that game I wasnt a fan of the first one but im up for something then a shooter.
I've been waiting for it since Banjo Tooie ended.
they better come with some fresh new ideas, because platforming is getting old, something like Ratchet and clank and stuffmaybe thatwhy they are taking so long, its hard to revive platform games at this point in gaming, everyone want stupid minigames (wii) or violent shooters (i like this games, thats why i got a 360)platformers arent that succesful these days...remember kameo? it was really good lookin' and fun but wasnt a huge hit
i guess that one would be worth a play but i would rather see a new conker
Banjo and Kazooie can die and go back to the forest. since when does a bird like in a backpack and run around with a bear attached to its back?!

Which Tom Clancy series are better? GRAW ...
I am a big fan of the Ghost Recon's but i am also exited about the new Conviction game under the category of Splinter Cell. Which do u guys prefer?Which Tom Clancy series are better? GRAW ...
i prefer Splinter Cell's games.Which Tom Clancy series are better? GRAW ...
i never liked the original Splinter Cell for the 1st XBox...
I personally like the Ghost Recon series because it's been revamped twice and I love the multiplayer in GRAW.
GRAW!!!
GRAW because i see splinter cell as a cheap rip off of MGS.
i can't stand that stealthy kinda gameplay in Splinter Cell games. You can sorta use it in the GRAW games but its mostly still a shoot 'em up kinda campaign.
man tough choice, but i'd have to go with splinter cell
[QUOTE=''Ipik_Fenris'']i prefer Splinter Cell's games.[/QUOTE]Me too. And the new Convistion looks really different. I don't know if that's a good or bad thing yet, though.
I've liked Splinter Cell series a lot more, but Double Agent felt like a mis-step in the continuity and evolution of the series. I don't know why, I just couldn't get into the single-player of double agent like I did with Chaos Theory.
GRAW
Its called Conviction
Splinter Cell....nuff said
i like GRAW more... although both feel very trial and error based.
Splinter Cell for shur. Its one of my favorite series of all time. That said, I wouldnt recomend Double Agent. By far the worst in its series. If your just looking for a good 360 game, i would just buy Rainbow Six. So far all the Tom Clancy games have been a let down this gen. Last time on xbox 1 i played the hell out of Ghost Recon 2, Rainbow Six, and Splinter Cell. But not this time.
GRAW2
splinter cell
Both are great games. It's really hard for me to prefer one over the other.
Ghost Recon and Ghost Recon Island Thunder were some of the best multiplayer, co-op 'n team based, games on Live,,,,With that said, Rainbow Six 3 was THE best Live game,,, I still miss it,,, :/Lol, anyways, The Splinter Cell series are also good, but the 1st two held my attention more than the others. Never finished Chaos Theory, 'n Double Agent was good, but not the amazingness of the 1st two,,Butttt,,, Lets see,,, GRAW IMHO has better multiplayer, but if you're lookin for something different, try SC.
