I was watching the Forza 2 gameplay video, where I saw 3 monitors connected on a single xbox360, all of them playing on the same time. It was awsome. What kind of cables were used? How can that be done?

Yeah i've seen that video as well, I think it was in Tokyo, im not too sure how they manage it though, although they were three Samsung HDTV's not monitors, unless I've seen a different video to you, they proberly just use some type of AV AMP thats able to do three signals, but im not sure, hopefully someone will know.

Yes, you do need 3 360s, each with a copy of Forza 2. Don't recall which magazine I read it (i get too many of them) but they say that you can do a complete 360 with up to 6 monitors/360s/forza. I would think you would need atleast 8 to make a complete 360 view, but I believe it stated only 6.  The set-up that was previewed in the magazine had 3 setup that were built on a metal frame, with a seat, steering wheel along with pedels.

I also read in Game Informer that you could have up to 6 360's on 6 tv's (3 in front and 3 behind you) and totally immerse yourself in the forza 2 world. I think it's silly honestly.

Well it would be pretty neat to try out if you and 2 of your friends pitched in your 360s and copies of the game. Otherwise it's not worth it at all.

I saw the same hting, it was in May's Game Informer, you might have to do system link. That's the only way I see it being done. The idea just seems ridiculous though.
