xBox 360 on a Viewsonic VX2025

[MrMitch]

Anyone running there 360 on their vx2025? I know it's a non-standard aspect ratio, but i was wondering

a) does it work? can i run the 360 through the VGA on my 2025?
b)can i run it in high-def? I run it on an old school 32 tv right now, i just want the full xbox experiance.

thanks for any info.

Yea a Xbox 360 is pretty much pointless with no HD running. ive seen some screenies of a Xbox 360 on my LCD and it looked pretty good. it does stretch a little bit.. but will still look 10 times better then what you got it on

I bought this montior mostly for my 360 and also my PC and I would recommend it. Yes, it's technically HD because its a resolution above that of SD TV. I run my 360 at 1280x720 because that's what 720p is, and 360 games are natively this resolution. Games look great, their is likely some minor stretching (because the monitor is 16:10 and the games are 16:9) but I don't notice it. GRAW looks great, Oblivion looks good (seems rather choppy to me), and everything else follows in its footsteps. If you'd like a shot or two of it I can post them. Just know that the 360 doesn't have digital video output and the VGA quality is good, but not great. So long as you're not on top of the monitor it looks good.

Someone else posted some shots of GRAW on this monitor...I'll look them up and post them here.

Here's the shots:clicky
