Hi everyone, im on the lookout for a nice 26 inch HDTV to buy ready for the release on the xbox 360 and the tv must have composite video inputs on it as that's what you need to play the 360 on. Can anyone help me out? So far ive found these ones.

So if you haven't got composite video inputs on your TV, you can't play your XBOX on it?
What else do you need on your TV to play the 360?

What kind of TV doesnt have any Video/Audio input?! You could always get an adaptor so that your xbox plugs in through your Antenna socket like the old SEGA Mastersystem :D

The best one ive seen is the samsung 26 inch HDTV as it includes composite video input which you need along with loads of other connections and i can get it from www.empiredirect.co.uk for 599 quid which is all i have to spend on one as i want to keep back some dosh for my xbox 360 with 4 games on launch day.
