there was another i pic itook later on in that one song where you can actually see several pimples/blemishes on his right forearm from hair growth, amazing LOL but the pic was too dark to post

Nice but it's scaled down too much to really tell us much. You need to post a larger pic.

you are right, i took the pic to show friends on myspace so i resized it, Here is the original pic, 2816x2112 99% quality and 2.8mb

why not using VGA ?

1080P FTW

My thoughts too.

it doesn't look as good. I had another thread up just on that topic 2 weeks ago. Both on my 32" and 47" vizios watching SD dvd's from the 360 VGA looks FARRRRRRRRR better than component. However the situation is difference once i switch to HD-DVD's using the HD-DVD player, on both screens the role is reserved, it is VGA that ends up looking washed out and component with the better color. Also for some reason on my 47" which is a 1920x1080 P screen connected with VGA the 360 won't let me choose 1920x1080, when i do the TV itself gives me an error message somethign like "no timing available" and i can set it only up to 1366x768. So using both component and VGA from the 360 I have not been able to get the screen to read anythign as progressive, just interlaced :(

Really? The VGA looks better to me for both... SD DVD because on VGA it upconverts & doesn't over component. And HD-DVD's look better for me as well, although I do get slight tearing randomly on VGA when I'm playing a game (doesn't happen over component).

I think that was the regular XBox DVD playback...some site found it to be subpar to even a cheapo $49 DVD player.

No, I remember reading the same thing in last months issue of EGM.

didn't tomshardware or anandtech just publish a HD-DVD buyers guide/review and said the HD-DVD addon for the 360 for a great deal at the price? and as a bonus you could plug it into your comp with the only down side being no recording capabilities?
