No matter if you are a gamer or movie fan, you have all been enjoying the HD revolution. Well all unless you are an Xbox 360 owner. According to Aaron Greenberg, these Xbox 360 gamers have not embraced the HD quality of games like PS3 owners have.
4 Games Thirst explains that Aaron Greenberg looked into this, “First we looked at the research, which shows that the majority of consumers who purchased an Elite console were not using the HDMI cable.” So why have they not embraced the preferred connection interface.
The thing is we are now at the point where graphics are everything, and using a high definition cable is certainly the way to go. There is no way of knowing why this is; maybe they do not have a Full HD TV to experience gaming how it should be. 4 Games Thirst believes that they would much rather spend their money on new games, rather than a new TV.

I use the HDMI on my 360. I use it mainly on a 22″ Samsung Syncmaster monitor thru VGA and periodicly hook it up to my 37″ Vizio in the TV room when I have friends over to go 4 way split in Halo 3 Matchmaking in social gametypes. I connect it thru HDMI when I hook it to the Vizio.
What a stupid article - HDMI isn’t the only way to get full HD!
I connect my 360 via component. I have an old(ish) tv with one HDMI (which i use for my media center pc)
1080p looks fine to me on my 360.
