WTB Xbox Component Video Cables (NOT 360!)

Post by Amp Divorax » Mon Jun 02, 2008 9:13 pm

Ok, I can't find them anywhere and Fry's wants to only have the godawful overpriced monster cables. I've tried all the used game stores as well (Gamestop doesn't even list it on their site.) and I'm really getting frustrated about this.

In the case of the PStwo component cables aren't as big since most of the games are 480i, but in this case it's 480p minimium or GTFO!

Um, a couple of problems with those cables. First, some of the no-name Xbox component cables (which these are the same as what's on http://www.jandaman.com/games.mvc?p=xbo ... _code=XBOX from what I've researched) have had documented issues with Sony WEGA TVs. (Of which I happen to own one of their final widescreen CRT models.) Second, they want $9 for standard shipping which kills any possible value gained by getting said cables that don't work on my HDTV! Most importantly though, Red Octane, who got their start by making unlicensed 3rd party peripherals and still make money off of it is towards the top of my gaming embargo list as a result of their attempt to sue other companies for making unlicensed 3rd party peripherals for Guitar Hero!

And ye shall receive.
A normality test:

If you find this funny, you're a nerd.
If neither of the above apply, you are normal. Congratulations.
