1080p on 360?

Still haven't bought a next gen console.

Thought there was no 1080p for 360 and now there is.

So what's the deal do I get the cables that support 1080p with a pro pack or only with elite. gamespot talks about cables that come with the pro they say:

"The three cable types can also support 1080p in games, but copy protection requires HDMI or VGA for 1080p video output. "

Copy protection what does that have to do with anything? I really don't understand do i need to spend more cash and buy more cables with a pro for the best picture or should I just fork out for an elite?

Please help, Cheers...

Component cables support 1080p as well.

But HDMI is the best visual source. Trust me though, the difference between the two is very hard to notice. Besides, there is no video game on the 360 that has a natural resolution of 1080p. They're either 720p or less.

You need a composite cable or hdmi cable to do 1080p although some TVs only support 1080p through HDMI. If you want the best graphically, chose the elite as it sends the signal straight into HDMI and has some other measures to make the graphics just that bit sharper if you have a 1080p tv.joshuahaveron

I also believe the newer core models also now come with a HDMI slot.

there are actually a few games on the 360 that are native 1080p the only two I can think off the top of my head are Virtua tennis 3, and NBA street home court.

Okay you are getting off topic there, but thanks anyway.

I need to make sure I buy the right 1080p T.V.? I plan to get one when I get the console (still undecided)

If I did get the 360 I was looking at the pros that seem to come with 60GBHDD and better cables than in the past. I understand it a bit more now.

This means I don't need a full 1080 p TV . But you're saying games have started being released that are 1080p , I'm guessing when FF13 comes it will be, and so I will want the tv.

any thoughts on that? :

Do you thinkl FF13 be 1080p on the 360? (I know hypothetical)

What TVs support proper 1080p with the cables provided with today's pro ?

If its on a 46"+ screen then yes you can tell the difference

Ahhhhhhh , thankyou.

Really, who cares about 1080p for games? Can you really tell the difference?skingus

you are always better off with hdmi.

* hdmi signal is digital

* hdmi cables have greater bandwidth

* hdmi cables can be bought for under $10
