Alright so i have a 360 and will be getting a ps3 very soon. If i bought this XCM megal cool vga box what else would i need to buy? What kind of cords and goodies do i need to buy? And is it worth getting this box because it's like 80$. And if it's worth it i'd be happy to spend that much on it.

And do i need to buy this with it?http://www.amazon.com/XBOX-360-Wii-PS3-PS2-SLIM/dp/B0019V8E8Y/ref=pd_sim_vg_1

All i need is a good quality box that i can hook my ps3 and 360 and possibly even ps2 to my moniter without having alot of wires and being able to switch between the systems and the computer without unplugging things.

Ok the moniter i use is the Asus VW224 22'' and it has both DVI and VGA inputs. I use the DVI now what i was wondering is if i bought http://www.amazon.com/Xbox-360-VGA-HD-AV-Cable/dp/B000B6MLTG/ref=dp_cp_ob_vg_title_0 http://www.amazon.com/Cables-Go-03170-Stereo-Coupler/dp/B00007FGUF/ref=pd_bxgy_vg_text_b and http://www.amazon.com/Audio-Splitter-3-5Mm-Stereo-Female/dp/B0009JFF7K/ref=pd_bxgy_vg_text_c how would i switch between the 360 if i had the 360 in the VGA and the Computer in the DVI. I wouldn't have to unplug anything would i? And i'm pretty sure those 3 pieces are all i need, can you/anyone verify and make sure they are good? And the middle component what is used for? Is it for hooking them up to headphones instead of speakers?
