[xbox360] VGA or component

Post by Leigh »

So should i go VGA or component for HD?

Ive heard VGA is sharper but colours are washed out and component is softer but better colours, recommendations please :)

I find component to rock ... but then again when you are playing a game are you actually going to notice?

I use

Component to play games - colours more vivid.
VGA for DVD Movie playback - proper HD upscaling via VGA (apparently not possible via Component).

well my plasma came yesterday and i must say the 360 over VGA absolutely rocks! GOW is amazing! Cant see a great deal of difference on DVD playback over my DVD player over Scart though (mind you it was early and i didnt pay that much attention)
