When I plug analog component cables for X360 it feels so last gen.

I mean my PS3 with HDMI is like so simple...one digital plug. X360 component on the other hand is so ancient, 3 plugs with metal casings. I just feel like graphics are more washed out on X360 being non-digital and all. Its probably just in my head though.

Or maybe cause I use DVI for my monitor an got rid of VGA cables. Digital vs Analog. And it looks so much better on PC and so I am relating it to component vs HDMI.

Fact is digital signals are the future though.

PS3 isn't even HD out of the box /threadKayrod29

And? Anyone who can afford PS3 will get HD cables. HDMI and Bluray is a huge selling point for PS3 an High Def in general.

Um, ok. Just seems kind of a stupid way to judge something of this sort...but ok. Judge how you want to...

Three cables with metal casings?  Component cables have five.  Sounds to me like you're comparing composite cables to HDMI, in which case, of course HDMI's going to look better.  I hooked my 360 up with composite cables the other day just for s**ts and giggles, and it looks about as good as the origional Xbox does.  Yes, the lighting effects/shaders are still noticable, but the detail goes straight to you-know-where.

I would have to say you have a crappy TV or Montior.

Get a new expensive one and try it.

Component, VGA, HDMI...if you are being honest with yourself and are not playing on a huge (60 inches or bigger) screen, there is not much difference between the three.
In fact, most people claim that colors, saturation, and clarity are better with component cables. I don't see it, but its out there.
Each person will see things their own way, but fact is, HDMIs advantage is it supports DRM, but so does VGA.
