Well I tried Gears last night and even though there were black bars on the screen and things looked a little squashed I was please with the quality of the picture, but now to me the quality of the image has been degraded.

Have you changed the resolution of the 360 in the Settings in the console menus? If you haven't then it won't look so good when you move to a VGA display.

When I went to Mexico at Christmas, my girlfriend told me to "have fun" this term since I did really well last term.

So I've bought a pwetty blue 26" Samsung LCD TV complete with Xbox 360 with GOW, Tony Hawk, Ghost Recon and one other one I can't remember

On the hunt for a Wii now!

No chance of any fun behind the uni firewall

But I might be able to get a 3G card for my laptop

Age old question guys - Component vs VGA. My TV only has one component in (currently the 360), but we have a component cable for the Wii so I'd like to use it if poss, which is making me consider a VGA cable for the 360.

Would I be shooting myself in the foot or will it be ok? Resolution is 1366x768.
