Title: how much do 360 composite cables cost
Post by: Himu on September 05, 2008, 12:52:53 PM

So my tv accidentally fell over when I was doing somoething while my 360 cables were inside my tv.

I looked at the cables later and the needles broke off. Thankfully the needles weren't stuck in my tv or I'd feel horrible.

Anyways, after 2 months of not turning on my 360, finally a game comes alone that I put almost 60 hours into in the span of a week, and my cables break right when I'm nearnig the end of the second part.

Now I'm on the brink of suicide because MS cables are ridiculous prices and I'm not even seeing Composite Cables listed on gamestop.com.

I really wanted to beat Vesperia by the time Yakuza 2 comes out, and then beat Yakuza 2 before DQIV, but now...

Sigh.

It's just the composite cable.  Yellow/Video, Red/White/Stereo Audio.  But MS doesn't sell those at retail.  They only come packed in with arcade/tard packs.

Pick up S-video cables for $15. They can be used to output composite video

You're...using composite cables with an XBOX360?!  :\

I have a feeling you're in the majority, unfortunately.  :(

I think it's time to buy an HDTV, Himu.

Nope. Svid cables come with composite (i.e. red, white, yellow) and one s-vid connector. If you only have composite, only use the three colored ones. I have a pair of the gamestop brand and they work fine and cost $15.
