My son's xbox 360, had been working for a year with no problems, but last week the picture started to blink on and off, I notice if I moved the cable the picture would clear up. I figured the cable was bad so I thought I'd just buy another regular AV cable like the one that came with the system.

But my sons TV is high definition so I thought why not try this HD cable because it is actually cheaper then the regular AV xbox 360 cable. I thought since it cost less the picture probably won't be as good.
Was I WRONG!!

The pictures is unbelievable, like in Lego Star Wars with the regular AV cable that came with it, the picture was good but the light saber was always a little blurry. With this new HD cable it is all Crystal Clear, the color is amazing and this cable COST LESS!!

If you have a HD TV don't wait for your regular AV cable to go on your xbox 360 get this cable. And yes with the new HD cable the picture stopped blinking on/off.

I purchased this cable because the hdtv/tv selector switch on my original cable failed. I had to tear the old cable apart and rig the selector switch. Once i did that the original cable worked perfectly, but i figured i should get a new one on the way.

I ordered this type instead if the microsoft cable because it was cheaper and looks like a better cable. This is one of those times that looks can be decieving.

With this cable i get ghosting and color glitches that are not there with the microsoft cable.

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS ITEM. BUY THE MICROSOFT CABLE, IT WORKS, THIS ONE DOESN'T.

These cords work perfectly, there is only two problem I have with them. First off the cords do not look like the picture above, it is a really weird green color, and the five cords at the ends are split off so they get all over the place. Secondly, the portion that plugs into the Xbox is way to bulky, and thus prohibiting the wireless network adapter from being snapped into place.

Other than that, I have had no problems with the picture, or audio. Well worth the $18 I paid.

This cable seemed like a good choice, but I, like several others who bought the cable, get weird lines and ghost images over half of the screen. Sometimes even the picture would not show if the wire was not bent the right way so I had to reinforce it with plastic covering. This helped a little bit but eventually the wire just stopped working altogether and I couldn't get it to work no matter how much I manipulated it. Very disappointed. Will try out Microsoft's version to see if it works better.

I have had these cables for 3 years and still work fine and the quality is ten times better than the original cables

I have one of the first Xbox 360s with no HDMI out. No complaints other than them using Fed-Ex. (meh) Plugged it in and am now enjoying the a way crisper, clearer picture. There are 2 yellow outs that aren't marked as audio out or yellow video, so just follow the cord up to the base and use the yellow next to the red to complete the audio portion of hooking it up.

I had my doubts but decided to purchase this product for the price and it turned out great. Makes images on the TV perfect.

DO NOT GET THESE CABLES UNLESS YOU WANT TO FLUSH $20 RIGHT DOWN THE POOPER! Seriously, I bought these and they didn't work at all. They plugged in and stuff but it ruined the picture by taking away the colors. HORRIBLE. DO NOT BUY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I expected this cable would be the standard 9 ft length. That might not be a problem for some, but it is for me. Cheap quality construction just adds to my disappointment.
