Really should use a HD tv and 5.1 sound when possible cus the differance is vast and well worth the money.

It's all well and good using your monitor for 360 in the short term, but unless you have a huge widescreen monitor you are not getting the proper experience.

I am using my monitor for 360, but I have component inputs and a monitor that supports 720p and 1080i via them.

According to forum reports, people using the VGA input do not get as sharp a picture or colour when compared to component inputs, but at least you are not playing at 480 anymore :)

Aada: Everyone should be using an extra lead for sound! You are missing out on the 360 experience if you are not hooking your 360 up to a hd display and a 5.1 receiver.

Mine is connected to my Pioneer sound system and i am using a sammy HD. But before that i tried the monitor thing and i couldn't get sound of it.

I run the picture through my 19" CRT, and sound via my hifi. I can't afford an HDTV, and this seems good enough to me. :)

My post dissapeared!

I thought I was happy with my 360 as well, until I saw it running on a 37" HDTV, it looks amazing.

Now I am saving for the inevitable price crash of big screens after xmas.

i like ch3tan play on a monitor with component. vga should give the option in setup to choose a decent res close to your monitor res

Was exactly the same until i went round a friends house and saw him playing on his HDTV and it was then i realised what all the fuss was about.

Unemployment leads to chronic depression and ultimately suicide.

I'm on it all the time, mostly because I have to sit here for work. You still wouldn't catch me complaining about the world every chance I get.

I'd like to point out that the survivors fill me with rage. Is there any way to get them to move through the zombies at a decent speed? I'm trying to lead five at once, and I can't keep them all alive, and myself.

survivors are the biggest pain in the ass ever, I find using way-points help alot more than just letting them follow you.

Also don't forget you can give them weapons and food.

I found giving them handguns seems to make them stop a lot, and then get swarmed by zombies. Do you think giving them melee weapons will help at all, or are they just supposed to be shit?

I've figured out that I need the 53K zombie achivement to complete overtime mode :/ or else it's impossible.
