I got the HD DvD player for my 360 and i think it works pretty good with the VGA cable. Im putting out full 1080p resulotion at 60 hz.. and im using a 46 inch Sharp LCD thats capable of doing 1080p at 120 hz. Although Halo 3 does look a little pixelated because it can only do 24 hz. Im looking forward to getting the madcatz HDMI conversion kit so i can go HDMI which will probably give me a crisper picture. Oh btw with the component cable as mentioned b4 you can only put out 1080i vs. the 1080p that gets put out on VGA. And for those of you that dont think theres much of a difference trust me there is , it is very visible. B4 i got the VGA cable i watched the king kong movie that came with the HD DVD player in 1080i and it came out looking very grainy with some digital noise in some of the scenes, but when i got the VGA cable and watched it again in 1080p at 60hz it was much crisper and had absolutly no digital noise what so ever which is a good thing for those HD noobs out there reading this.
