I have quite an old TV, and it hasnt got any scart plugs in the back (those white yellow and red wires). When i got my wii i could connect another wire thats bought sepretly, one that goes into the circular hole in the back of the TV (The arial). I asked the guy in Gamestation if you could buy a wire like that for the 360, but he said no. Any help??? I dont wanna buy another TV.

WOW. That is an old TV.

Sorry, but let me spell it out for you:

You WILL need to buy another TV

you have a few options here.

1 buy a video recorder. it will have the arial (RF)connection to go to your tv and it will also have the composite (rca) inputs so you can plug your 360 into it.

2. you can buy a convertor from rca to rf signal. what this will do is take your composite (not component which are the red, greed and blue plugs) and convert them into he RF signal and then you can tune a tv chanel into the allocated signal. may be chanel 3 or 4 or could be a uhf chanel like 37 etc.

the best option atm is option 1 as you will not pay much more if any for a cheap video recorder.

A DVD player will not do the job you need as they do not have RF output only composite or component the same as the 360 has.
