Mainly due to the fact that they new need hardware to do the convertions (HDMI is cheaper obviously) and AACS (Blue-Ray/HD-DVD) won't allow 1080p over component connections.
But it is possible to fire 1080p60 over component and VGA (thats as far as they will go due to bandwidth limitations) and i believe game makers don't have to follow with the film studios so you should be able to play 1080p over compoment and VGA.

However, the 360's HD-DVD drive will only output 1080p over VGA, while component is limited to 1080i (read first link below).

TBH i wish MS would hurry and release a HDMI cable for the 360.

Could always buy a Playstation shitty 3 :look:

no, it supports 1080i through a HDMI connector, does it support 1080p via Component cable?

all 360's can do 1080p, we just dont have a cable/tv combo that can output it yet. I think MS will release a 1080p cable when demand increases

What TV is that, finally decided top bite the bullet and get a nice HD LCD and that looks as though it would fit the bill nicely

I think the black 360s are the developers ones, they also have a HDD which i believe is networked so the new versions of the game can be instantly updated and played, so no need for burning to disc.

But anyway, it looks :! and that is the tv ive been looking at. mmmm nice
