For those of us who really DO love next gen gaming, XCM has become the first out of the gate (at least to my knowledge) to come out with a component cable that will allow your Wii, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3 to be hooked up all at the same time. You have no idea (or if you're rich you do) how annoying it is to switch component cables all the time to play games. Now the XCM XFPS 360 multicomponent cable v2, as it is called, is here to help.
What's even better is that after you're done cleaning out your bank account for the systems and games, this cable will only set you back $29.99. Thank you XCM, you have answered my prayers.

Also cocks.
At Uni. we run the PS2, Wii, 360 and a 'digi-box' into our tv through one scart input, and the damn thing didn't cost $30. It looks somewhat like this:

As you can see, you can run the sound out to your Hi-Fi as well, with just one cable (less switching again). Though you'll wanna use an optical cable if you can for the 360 / PS2.
God, I'm so lazy. so very lazy.
XCM makes great quality stuff. i love multi component cable i have. the one thing i think you should all know about it is that it is not a very long cable. the one i have is maybe 4' long at the most. it is not a problem for me cause the ps3 and 360 are on the desk next to my monitor, but if youre component-in ports are kinda far from the system then i suggest you be wary. granted, i have the older cable but i doubt they made it any longer.
I currently have an older (probably no longer made) cable that has PS2 or PS1, Xbox, and SNES/N64/GCN plugs (3 plugs altogether) with S-Video out. If I ever got all three of the current gen systems, I'd get that thing, to accompany my multi S-Video cable and its systems it supports. It might make more sense to buy or make a gigantic switch box for all my game systems instead, though.
