My question is the following: "Can the new (2009) Xbox 360 Elite 120GB Model have HDMI connectivity?" I'm asking this because in Cod Mw2, I've been getting a lot of glares and stuff that I don't like to witness. I don't know what's the problem, because I have a 52" Full HD 1080p tv. My Xbox 360 elite is the one from 2009, the newer one, i think its Jasper...but I have an HDMI cable from my old xbox 360 that I want to plug in. a friend told me there's no need, because they're is this "HD switch" on some power cord that the 360 has, but I can't find it. And also, my TV has 4 Hdmi hook ups, so I want to use one of them for the Xbox. Thanks in advance, bb45

There's a HD switch on the audio/video cable of the 360, but to get full 1080p you should use HDMI. Component however, works fine up to 1080i.

Xbox doesn't have full support for 1080p I think.
