Video Game Reviews of Xbox Component Video Cable
Customer Review: Vast improvement in clarity
Summary: 5 Stars
I don't really know specifics on HD, but this product did a tremendous job in upping the quality of the resolution for my 37" 720p LCD tv. If you've ever played an Xbox game like Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind on an LDC screen without a component cable, you might've noticed the gray-ish colors and fuzzy picture you get.
The first thing I notice is how easy the plastic packaging opened up (unlike similar item packages- like the Sony brand PS2 cable), so no scissors required. And after taking it out, the cable itself is heavy duty. It almost reminded me of something the army might use with how heavy duty.
With these cables, the difference really is like night and day... like going from vhs to dvd. The quality is so crisp on Morrowind that it actually picks up the square edge pixels from the 128-bit graphics (you'll really notice them on the saved file thumb nails and text--like the opening credits) and that's not really a bad thing. The color quality also is enhanced, as well as the black levels and contrast. I do use a home theater surround sound system when I play games, but my system is crap so I can't really tell if there is a difference in audio. I hear the audio doesn't really improve unless you get the optical audio cables, but let's be honest... that's not really why I got the component cable.
Definitely worth the $35, plus like $7 more for the 2 day shipping that actually came the next day. I've only had this a day, so I haven't found anything to complain about yet other than the extremely snug fit into the back of my tv.
So,
Pros: Easy-to-open package, improved, crisp resolution and more vibrant color; heavy-duty quality cable; fast shipping; better quality than Sony PS2 component
Cons: Tight fit into tv (but is that a con? won't slip out that way, right?); wished it was less expensive
I definitely recommend it if you're looking for quality.
Also, can't wait to play Halo with it...
