I may well be getting another Xbox 360 soon (FOC due to a mix up from a supplier :D) and may keep hold of it for a while before selling it on, or maybe even for good if I like it ;)

Anyway, the problem I have is that almost all of my inputs are taken up on my TV. I only really have a VGA input left which I know I can connect the 360 via but I dont know if this would be equal quality to the component (currently taken by Wii)... should I connect 360 to VGA and keep Wii where it is or move the Wii to my one remaining Scart socket and connect the 360 via component?

If anyone can think of another way of hooking it up so that all three consoles can display in HD then i'm all ears (well eyes, as I will be reading it) :)

Cheers.

P.S. Yes, Yes, I know I said I wouldn't buy a 360 but FOC is good value imo ;) and no I'm not ripping anyone off or receiving stolen goods etc - too long to go into.

The picture quality/overall sharpness should be better via VGA compared to component. You'll get the full 720p picture with VGA, like component, however on some TVs VGA's colours look a little washed out and less vivid than they do via component.

Sorry I still don't get which is the best from that statement :confused:
 
excellent ta, I did try a search but couldn't find anything - I guess I will try out the VGA then and see how it goes... wouldn't really want to hook the Wii up via scart tbh :|
