Do you not have an HDTV or do you just not know the hierarchy of video cables?

"i got rid of those clunky 'component' cables. the words 'component' and 'composite' are so similar that they're practically the same thing, right?

"anyway, my graphics are really smooth now, it's like it added AA!"

I pretty much have the same thing.

Only I've had it for like 4 years.

And I didn't make a thread about it.

I can't be too hard on people excited by things like this.  It wasn't until 2003 that I upgraded from my 13 inch mono TV with only RF to a 20 inch stereo with component cables.  Now I have a 1080p Bravia...how times have changed.

It hooks up to ps2, 360, and wii (lol).

Why are you laughing? The Wii and 360 probably looked about the same on your old setup.

OMG have you seen these awesome facsimile machines? You can put a sheet of paper in, it will convert it into a telephone signal and then you can use a normal telephone line to send the information to someone. Then they can print it out at their end and have a copy of the sheet of paper you put in! AMAZING!!

Sorry, but Xerox is old news. We're all riding the new wave.

I can't tell if this is a parody thread or not.

I do remember hooking up my PS2 through component made a pretty big difference on SDTV, but when I first got my 360 it was also connected via component to SDTV, it looked... OK. Then I got an HDTV and VGA cable. Hoh-lee-sheeeit.

S-video barely makes a difference anyway. Component is the real jump (even in SD).

Now now, let's be fair.  Himu-chan is not a Republican. 

Oh shit tho, just remembered that he's a big Shenmue fan.  Shit, this is a tougher call than I thought...

The biggest leap in picture I have ever seen from an S-Video cable was on a modded Neo-Geo.  The jump in quality was jaw-dropping.

But even that was like eight years ago and outdated at the time, LOLZ.
