Radioshack is going out of business. I saw Mad Catz 360 VGA cables. They had tons at the Milner/401 location in Scarborough, but I dont remember the price. It was under $15 I think, but I could be wrong.

i'm looking for this cable as well.

For the 360 the cheapest MS cable I found was at Costco (never did find them in stock at Walmart or Zellers).

Noname cables:
Intec - $29.99 FS
Madcatz - $24.79 Walmart

Can anyone tell me if the nonames are good enough or is the MS Cable worth the extra bucks?

I just bought the Mad Catz VGA cables yesterday, and I'm wondering how it compares to the Official MS VGA cables.

I use a 17" LCD monitor, and using the Mad Catz cables, I noticed that the colours and black levels coming from the 360 are somewhat faded or washed out (I'm comparing this to when the monitor is connected to the PC... which looks great). Also, there's a slight but noticable "ghosting" of any text that shows up on screen. That is, it looks like a faded copy of the text is overlaying the picture, but is shifted to the right.

I'm just wondering if any official MS VGA cable owners have noticed the same type of thing on their LCD monitors. Is this just the nature of displaying through VGA, or do the Mad Catz cables suck?

I have a MS VGA cable and I dont notice any ghosting. It does look more faded compared to a component cable though. But I find it actually looks sharper then component depending on the resolution because VGA allows higher resolutions then component does. This is on my plasma, never tried on my lcd monitor. If you havent tried changing the resolution, try that.

vga will look washed out cuz it thinks you are gonna use it through the pc which has colour, tint, and all the other adjustments...ive tried it on 3 different hdtvs and all 3 look washed out but the resolution did look better than Red Green Blue hookups
