Video Comparison for Xbox 360

RF is only understandable for last gen players still playing their PS2 or XBOX. Playing a 360 with RF is pretty close to what I would call a joke. I had the experience and opportunity to play with a RF connection recently, and the difference is huge.
 
I last used RF with the NES.

I last used composite with the Playstation.

I last used S-Video with the Dreamcast, Playstation 2 and Gamecube.

I started using component with the X-Box and it's carried over to the X360.

I'm simply amazed that they are still wasting resources in manufacturing RF cables for the X360. This is Ripley's Believe It Or Not material!
 
Saw that before...

VGA and HD components are just the best to go.

I've used RF adapters on nes, super nes, N64, playstation, dreamcast, playstation 2, gamecube, etc...so I guess you could say Xbox360 was the first and only console I ever used that is non-RF but rather composite or other cables.

Same with Wii...I use composite cables on it too so with newer TVs out today, composites are pretty handy.

so really, I perfer AV cables over RF anyday.
 
PS3 + RF = A Joke!
XBOX 360 + RF = A Joke!
Wii + RF = Just a bit...
XBox + RF = Yea...a bit...
PS2 + RF = Just a bit...
PSOne + RF = Not too much...
Nintendo 64 + RF = It's okay...
SNES + RF = It's fine.
NES + RF = It's fine.

PS3 + Composite = A Joke!
XBOX 360 + Composite = A Joke!
Wii + Composite = It's okay.
XBOX + Composite = Not too much...
PS2 + Composite = Better than RF.
PSOne + Composite = Better than RF.
Nintendo 64 + Composite = Better than RF.
SNES + Composite = Better than RF.
NES + Composite = Better than RF.

PS3 + S-Video = A Joke!
XBOX 360 + S-Video = A bit of a joke...
Wii + S-Video = Better, but defeats the purpose of Extended Definition.
XBOX + S-Video = Better than composite.
PS2 + S-Video = Better than composite.
PSOne + S-Video = Better than composite.
Nintendo 64 + S-Video = Better than composite.
SNES + S-Video = Not available.
NES + S-Video = Not available.

PS3 + Y-Pb-Pr = Works best.
XBOX 360 + Y-Pb-Pr = Works best.
Wii + Y-Pb-Pr = Only up to 480p.
XBOX + Y-Pb-Pr = Only up to 480i, as far as I know.
PS3 + Y-Pb-Pr = Rarely to find...but even with component video cable > 480i.
--- The rest of the consoles don't support Y-Pb-Pr.

VGA, DVI, and HDMI provides the best, but I think VGA is between S-Video and component but can't be sure.

Keep in mind--not many of the console buyers have an HDTV.

No, VGA and component are MUCH BETTER than S-Video.

For composite, Banjo said it's good on PS3, unlike 360 does.

Banjo said that?? Composite good on PS3. Well, i have to disagree with that. Composite on PS3 is joke! It is good for 480p. For me, I prefer component or hdmi for PS3 is good for 1080i or 1080p.

No, he means that compsoite via PS3 got better picture than 360 does, only via compsoite.

For 480p, that require to have component cable to capture 480p since compsosite is maximum at 480i.

HDMI is great as component but component cannot goes capture 1080p and maximum at 1080i, also HDMI is great to capture 1080p.

To clear up the confusion here. I did tell Pacman that I thought PS3 looked decent over composite in 480i. I'm not saying that it's better than 480p, 720p, 1080i and 1080p. But I am saying it look pretty decent overall for that resolution.

Though it look absolutely breathtaking over the HDMI cable. 'Fight Night: Round 3' looked amazing and quite realistic in 720p. Blu-Ray movies looks sensational in 1080i/p.

It's just amazing what a difference each resolution makes.

Thanks! Interesting. I have not hook up composite to 480i. Oh well, I really don't need to do that. Yeah about HDMI blew me away with 1080p with blu-ray and my sony hdtv 1080p. Amazing picture.
 
I read on Banjo's blog and showed pictures of a movie he was watching "alien vs. predator" and showed the comparison between dvd and blu-ray so obviously blu-ray has killed the dvd into many pieces cause of better picture lol

Yes, You can see big difference. I suggested anyone to go to Best Buy. They have preview for blu-ray and dvd comparasion. It is really cool about that.
