Can anyone offer some advice please, I'm trying to connect my 360 to my laptop so I can play games on the laptop screen rather than on my TV because theres no space in my room, is this at all possible and if so what leads/programs would i need??

u can't use your laptop as a monitor for your xbox 360 unless you buy a tv tuner but the quality may not be that good

I'm not sure and I haven't tried but with some new laptops they do offer HDMI ports maybe you can use that.

Both of you are wrong.

It is absolutely IMPOSSIBLE to play 360 on a laptop unless you have a video-in port (such as VGA). Very, Very, Very few laptops have this.

And about the HDMI thing- That is an HDMI-OUT.

Yeah you need a video in port.... very uncommon.
