AA is on your PC because you turn it on, either through your display drivers or by the game itself. In the case of the 360, you can't control it, it's either on or off.

check the settings on your xbox games for filterings. or check out if your videocard driver supports filtering modes outside games (CCC allows me to put in 16x AF for HDMI support for playing xbox 360 games on my monitor, for instance, it all differs from videocards, i have no idea if nvidia GPU's support this with their current drivers.

also, on what resolution are you playing? and how big is the screen you are playing on?

What the hell are you connecting? Are you plugging the 360 into your videocard?

Anti-aliasing is through your computer's video card, not the monitor.

There's nothing you can do about it since anti-aliasing on the 360 is on a per-product basis. Some developers put it into their games, some don't.

(for performance reasons)

Right Anti-Aliasing is a way of smoothing the edges of pixels so you cant see the 'steps' or 'squares' as much With PC games these can be enabled in the settings some games have it some dont, depending n how good your PC or graphics card is this may decrease performance with the xbox 360 graphical settings cannot be changed as the game runs at its best potential on the 360 the way it is, some games like COD4 have 2xAA, thanks to the GPU in the 360 2xAA does not decrease performance by much at all. but most games do not include AA because it is generally not worth the performance hit in some cases

agreed but the 10mb of EDRAM on the gpu chip should help along 2xAA anyway without hardly any performance hit funny thing is after playing COD4 on 360 and moving up to a high end PC playing it with a much higher res and 4XAA it looks loads sharper 600p is crappy!
