X box 360 DVD movie play back.....

[Shmomey]

I am thinking about purchasing the Sony DVD Player with the HDMI output via monster HDMI cable. The reviews via Circuit City claim that it is better quality than regular DVD players. I also have a deposit down on a Xbox 360. I know the Xbox 360 offers High Definition with HD AV cables. My question is does anyone know the quality of movie playback via the Xbox 360. I already have the Xbox (1 ) dvd player. If I get the Sony DVD player and the Xbox 360 I will have a total of three DVD players for my 55 inch Sony. Is the Sony DVPN570H Conversion worth the extra money for a superior picture? The cost wont break my wallet around $130 bucks. I might have a hard time explaining to my wife why I have three DVD players under my T.V.

First off although the xbox games are hi def the movies will be normal 480. If I were you...and could afford that dvd player then grab it. I have heard the 360 is kind of loud for a dvd player

Forget about that Mon$ter HDMI cable (unless you get them for free, or unless you already have it and can't take it back). See the following thread.

And go to the HDTV FAQ "DVI/HDMI Information" where you can buy HDMI cables for $1-$20.
