The good: Adds HDMI output to older Xbox 360s; full 1080p video output; no-hassle installation; includes 3-foot HDMI cable and optical audio cables.
The bad: HDMI only outputs stereo audio (optical hookup needed for surround); picture quality improvement is minimal; somewhat pricey; included cables are short.
The bottom line: The Mad Catz Xbox 360 HDMI Conversion Kit delivers exactly what it promises--but you should only get it if you're looking to reduce cable clutter.

Terrible and misleading product. Does not perfrom well.
by jsilva18 on October 15, 2009
Pros: I am very dissatisfied with this product.
Cons: The cables are definitely too short and it just makes my screen flash and it shows white little pixels everywhere. Also it doesn't support full 1080p.

Summary: Audio through HDMI was a throw-in as I thought it'd be video only converted to HDMI. However, the bad side is that it runs the video so hot that I'd say the upper 10% of whites in any video signal is completely clipped. No amount of adjusting Brightness/Contrast on any portion of my home theater setup could correct it. It's still usable and I love the HDMI simplicit and the visible improvement I see on my screen, I may go back to component cables.
But to say this is "useless" is a bad review.

Summary: It's really useless because Blu-Ray seems to be taking over. The better movies aren't coming out on HD. And Xbox 360 doesn't support Blu-Ray also in the next batch if they decide to convert to Blu-Ray this still will not be need hopefully they will come to there sinces and put this install in on the Xbox 360 along with the regular adaptors.
