GAMEware Playstation 3 HDMI cable

Advantages: Cheap - does a great job
Disadvantages: None

...This is a must have accessory for any Playstation 3 owner. The best way to send sound and video to your TV to play in high definition is through a HDMI cable. It is the most reliable and easiest way of doing it. A test recently done on the gadget show proved that a cheap HDMI cable will work just as well as an extremely expensive one. They both do the same job and one isn't better than the other. This cable from GAME is one of the cheapest HDMI cables I have seen in the shops and so if a definate buy if you are thinking of getting one. As the Playstation 3 system does not come with a HDMI cable in the box you will probably want to buy one when you pruchase your PS3 and if you are buying it in GAME then you should definitely go for their make of the HDMI cable. Don't bother spending more for the official sony one. They will both look...

THE LAZY MAN'S GUIDE TO CABLE SWAPPING

Advantages: Intuitive, unobtrusive
Disadvantages: None of note

...rushed to order the practicalities of the situation sunk in ? these new boxes are only connectable to a TV via an HDMI cable, which had me rueing the purchase of a TV with only one of the sought after sockets. Of course the simple solution would be to swap cables between the Xbox and Sky as and when required; but I use the gaming device to watch DVD?s which would mean swapping the cables several times a week. To me this just wasn?t acceptable ? It?s no good showing off your high def picture and glorious looking console games if you have to fumble behind the TV for ten minutes, swearing and muttering as you try to find the end of the requisite cable while waggling your bum in the faces of the assembled throng. Something permanent and less troublesome was called for. I?d heard of gizmos called HDMI switchers ? handy little devices that sit...

Review of Joytech HDMI Tri Link Switcher

Why am I paying for this? Never mind, it's good...

Advantages: Great picture and audio, incredibly reliable, decent value for money
Disadvantages: Should really be bundled with the PS3 console

...Let's not beat around the bush; cables are not exciting. No matter how brilliant the Playstation 3 is, no matter how much fun you have with it, the cables are going to be the dullest, most boring bit. So when you buy them, you want them to last, if only so you never have to experience the tedium that is shopping for wires ever again. I'm pleased to report that Sony's official HDMI cable is as good as I've seen so far. Performance is going to be the main factor in choosing your cable, and while I have little to compare it to, Sony's HDMI cable is the Ferrari in performance terms. A beautifully crisp, clear picture, with no fuzziness, no messy little patches on screen - the visual quality is outstanding. The picture never suffers from slow down, or any issues whatsoever as far as I can see, and the audio is similarly excellent. You will...

Review of Sony Official HDMI Cable

Official Wii Component Video Cable

Advantages: Far better picture than standard composite, better looking games
Disadvantages: Expensive, Only needed for larger screens 32" or greater

...After the release of the little white bundle of joy on the 8/12/2006 people were given a composite cable to show off their new shinny new console. AV enthusiasts all know a composite signal is the poor quality option for showing video on their TV's - what people really want is RGB or Component video input. As console manufactures are out to make a profit they usually bundle the cheapest and most compatible option with the console and then release upgrades to that product for people who need or want it. Nintendo understand this and have released two video upgrade options - the Wii RGB cable or the Wii Component cable. Lets get things straight from the off, The Nintendo Wii is not a High Definition Console, What this cable does offer is a enhanced image resolution of 480p. I finally got hold of the component video cable after...

Wii component cable- Well worth the money

Advantages: sharper/brighter picture, opens up more ports on TV, saves hassle.
Disadvantages: quite expensive for a simple console improvement

...The Nintendo Wii component video cable really is a sound investment if you are the owner of an HD/ LCD TV, and obviously a nintendo Wii. Before i bought it, i had trouble with the picture quality and contrast on many of the games. Games such as Wii Sports were fine, but more of the action/adventure games such as Zelda or Splinter Cell give a very dark picture which can sometimes be hard to make out what was happening. The only way i could combat this problem was to adjust the contrast on my television which did help, but was alot of hassle. With the component cable, the picture is not only much brighter, but much sharper and defined. It gets rid of the hassle of having to turn the contrast back down after playing on the Wii and improves the overall gaming experiance. Another bonus is that on your HD TV, this cable plugs into...

Review of Nintendo Wii Component Video Cable

The GAMEware component cable spices up the Wii's HD graphics.

Advantages: Improves the graphical quality of games, Cheaper than the official cable.
Disadvantages: I suppose some people will unfairly compare the Wii and the 360/PS3 graphics and be disappointed?

...Having previously played my Wii on a regular old television I was more than happy with the graphics in game. However upon moving house and purchasing a Samsung LCD TV which is HD compatible, I figured buying a component cable couldn?t hurt and I had heard good things about its effect upon games. I did not have the money at the time to purchase the official Nintendo one, and when talking about it with the kind and helpful assistants in GAME, they assured me theirs was just as good and a fraction of the price. I had never been let down by them before so I bought it and went home straight away to see the effect it would have, especially on games with already spectacular graphics like Metroid Prime 3 and Super Mario Galaxy. Difference in Picture Quality Being unsure of the effect it would have, I performed a blind test with a friend...

Review of Wii Component Cable

Be careful next time you need to call .. 'THE CABLE GUY' ..

Advantages: Well.... Jim Carrey stars in it!
Disadvantages: it possibly could have done with just a touch more humor.

...--------------------------------------- THE CABLE GUY on DVD --------------------------------------- This film was first released in 1996 and it was officially a box office FLOP . I was actually quite surprised to learn that on watching the DVD. Jim Carrey was already quite a well recognized face in the movie industry by the time that 'The Cable Guy' was released . His previous roles had included the lead part in the 2 ACE VENTURER movies( I love both of those films) and also the Riddler in BATMAN FOREVER(my son likes this one) . I first saw this movie a few years after its release, on pay per view . I loved this film so much that my sister on knowing this decided to buy it for me as a present a few birthday's ago.It was a GREAT choice as it is still a favorite of mine all these years on. ---------- Plot ---------- Jim Carrey...

Review of The Cable Guy (DVD)

An expensive cable but well worth it.

Advantages: Great pictures and you can connect it to a number of devices.
Disadvantages: It is expensive and the cable is quite short.

...DVD player. This cable has plenty of other uses than connecting TVs up to blu ray DVD players you can connect it up to a Sky HD box a HD TV recorder or playstation three or you can also connect a laptop or a new pc with a HDMI port and certain camcorders/cameras. The connector has nineteen pins in it they are quite hard to see because they are so small. If you need to put the cable any distance this won't be much use since its only one and a half meter. Sony does sell longer cables if you need them there are three meter cables available. Another cable I have purchased is HDMI to DVI it does the same thing pretty much but most computers would have DVI rather than HDMI. I found the set up very easy just open the box plug in the cable a either end no cd to install and there is no real need...

Review of Sony VMC 15HD Video / Audio cable

the cable that will last a lifetime

Advantages: strong
Disadvantages: none

...Now iv not done a review on USB cables before, really its just never hit me that I could actually write about these and there’s also the fact that there’s not really much you can say about a cable, but ill give it a go. This is a normal printer cable which means it has two ends, one being the end which goes into any USB port in your computer or laptop, this end is the rectangle shaped end and is called a type A. The other end is which goes into your printer, and don’t worry as nearly every printer made has this kind of end so it will definitely fit, and this end is kind of square in shape and is known as the type B end. It transfers data to your computer at speeds of up to 480 mbps, that’s megabytes a second which is really fast and is about 40 times faster than USB 1.1 cables. The cable its self is 1.8 m...
