This is a good buy if your television supports S-Video.  What this cable does is separate the colors a lot better than your standard A/V cable device.  This results in a much improved video quality as a result of more resolution.  Your video games will appear more crisp and have more definition when compared to A/V picture quality.  You might also see things that you might have never seen before due to the improved quality.  I give it four stars though because of the price.  This cable should be about $10 or $15 cheaper.  If you are willing to pay this price, then you will like your results.
