An Xbox 360 with a VGA adapter and Dead Rising. My TV at the time was one of those gigantic old 90s video editing CRTs, the kind that take all sorts of analog inputs like RCA and S-Video and even did HD if you could convert something to BNC, but pointedly would not do Component or HDMI. A few days prior I’d learned that VGA can be repinned directly to BNC, and then when I was wandering through Best Buy I saw they’d gotten some 360 VGA adapters in. I stopped, flipped a coin, called heads, it landed heads, I bought it.
I’d figured I’d get some minor fun out of it, basically just bought it because I really wanted to play Dead Rising. Instead I wound up using the ever loving hell out of my 360. Still have it, still works, no RROD or anything.
