I want to play my 360 on the computer, can anybody give me some direction as to how?
I just want to see it on my computer, as opposed to TV.

Thank you.

First make sure that one of the xbox 360's resolutions works with your monitor. If not, you won't be able to use it.

Then you'll need a vga cable which sells for, like, 10 to 15 bucks on Ebay whereas Microsoft sells it in stores for 50 bucks plus tax. You can also buy an optical cable for digital sound which runs around 20 bucks on Ebay...maybe a little cheaper, but it's not necessary.

Just have the vga cable connect to both the 360 and the computer monitor. You may also get a screen that lets you change the display settings which will help with the different resolution types.
