A little sample of a pretty good movie-game adaptation, normally these suck but again this one is pretty darn good!

Yeah so this video comes as an apology for not showing the component cables in action in the first video... but here it is now so check it out! And as I said above there is also a little softmod demonstration as well.

The video looks very crisp on that huge HDTV attesting to how well the component cables improve the signal. I did not notice, but did you show anything in the video with the XBox settings at just 480i? This can be displayed even with Component cables and will show what a composite cable image would look like as far as the upscaling on the non CRT HDTV.

I ripped a copy of Yakuza Mission 2 for the oXbox which was Japan only release and is capable of 720p via component and holy crap does that game look incredible on an HDTV, the oXbox really was incredible for it's time, capable of outputting HD before most TV's could.

You should try out Soul Calibur II (which displays in 720p) and Dragon's Lair 3D: Return to the Lair (which displays in 720p and 1080i). Both look fantastic (although one is a much better game than the other).

Notably, the Xbox version of Atari Anthology also displays at 720p and 1080i...but the graphics in those games are what they are...

Hmm I could have sworn that I played Castlevania Curse of Darkness at 720p... and sure, i'll bring the size down a bit for the thumbnails.

Yes, I can't wait to get a bigger hard drive installed so I can do a little game ripping myself,... I mean ehem.. I don't support piracy lol. And yeah the OG XBOX is quite impressive, I only put it 2nd to the Dreamcast (personal 6th gen favorite)

I gotta check Soul Calibur 2 out on the XBOX, I only played the GameCube version and thought Link was awesome in that. Gotta see how Medieval Spawn plays, wasn't aware their was a Dragon's Lair on the XBOX and Atari 2600 in 720p sounds either cool or hilarious!

Taking a quick look at a SEGA Classic beatem up, Golden Axe! This game is pretty good but I still think I like Final Fight the best.

I must admit, it does look a lot sharper my 7800 running though an RF switch...
