Play Xbox 360 on Laptop?

[Zasnow]

I am leaving for the beach in a couple of weeks and I plan on taking my 360 to play when im not driving. So does anyone know a way to connect my 360 to my laptop so I can use it as the screen? Ive googled it and someone suggested a gamebridge but I haven't heard much about it. Thanks

IMO, you will destroy your discs. 360's will put a huge circular scratch in a disc if it's suddenly moved. The disc won't be playable afterwards. If you're leaving from K-Town, my advice would be to just watch a couple of movies to pass the time until you get to beach.

I've never even tried to use an xbox in a car... well we tried it once - using an ancient inverter and minutes later we smelt something burning... lol.. it was OK back in the day for the NES/SNES and such but couldn't handle a 360.

Yeah, we tried taking my PS3 on senior trip. We blew about 5 fuses trying to use the inverter. Massive failure.

I put a little thought into it and I realized its not worth getting the red rings just for one beach trip. Ill just drink a beer and pop me a dvd in.

You would have needed a tuner card of some type. It isn't standard for a laptop to have a video INPUT.

I have a carputer, and had considered hooking up an original xbox instead... glad I went with a regular PC. XBMC isn't very conducive to car related things, and I would have never gamed on it. I barely watch any videos or surf the web as it is now. I really only use it for music and GPS.
