Xbox & Ps2 > Projector + HD gaming ??

[Kopite4Ever]

righty oh i shall be getting a new PJ in the next week or so. i want to have both ps2 and xbox connected to it. so im going to route component from both consoles into my amp then from amp to PJ so i can use component switching. do any of you reccomend what cables ? ie should i use the MS HD kit or will a 3rd party one suffice ?

next question is the talk of HD gaming. i have at the moment a crystal xbox on live as i love Halo 2 playing with mates. now i want to keep it that way as well as get 480 & 720 p to my Pj! is there any way what so ever to achieve this with out a mod chip ? have heard somestuff about softmodding but wont this get me banned of live as well ?

suggestions on both points will be appreciated

regards

i dont really know which is the best cable for the PS2 but for the xbox, then deffo go for the official MS lead.

yep thanks it looks the best cable. ive found it for £15 on lik-sang but will it be the same connections to the xbox ? or is the cable anycheaper somewhere else ?

any one have an idea's on the HD prob. i know there is a huge thread about it but i dont have the time right now to look through all those pages

I got the HD cables from Lik-Sang it was about £30 in total with DHL shipping and took about 5 days.

However, my brother managed to get a brand new MS set of cables of ebay for £25 - and he got his next day

Dont be scared of getting your xbox chiped and going on line ,get somthing like an executer 2 mod chip that as a switch to turn the mod chip on or off
