Puff, does the HDMI cable for the xbox make a different over the regular hd cables?

NO!!!!

i bought $6 HDMI cables on Amazon.com and i'm pretty sure there's no difference between a $6 HDMI cable and a $100 HDMI cable.

I think I found a deal on a 360 with COD4 and two wireless controllers for $175. Only thing I will have to buy is COD5 and I will be all set. Got to drive to Upton, MA to get it though. Warming up the S now

I wish they made Mario Kart for the 360!

Oh yeah. Im not getting no arcade BS.

I will probably stop and pick up a cheap HDMI cable on the way home. Any cable will work, right?

depends on how far your trying to go.
under 6 ft anything should work.
15-20 feet get a good cable.

hdmi cable article concerning pricing

http://arstechnica.com/journals/thum...2007/2/19/7116

also there are 2 hdmi formats 1.1 and 1.3 just price shop for the version you need. If it meets the spec than your good to go. Doesnt matter if its $5 or $500 if its rated to meet the spec for what you need your good.

I explain this to people all the time.

all you need to know about hdmi specs is here
