    All HDMI cables are the same, any will do, even the ones in the 2 Euro store.

    I know theyre all the same.

    I suppose all I want to know is there a HDMI slot in the back of the Xbox 360 S?

    Correct on everything, all 360 S models have HDMI slots and all HDMI cables are the same.

    Just to further clarify on the cables, HDMI is a digital signal so you either receive it or not. The more expensive the cable, doesn't effect the quality of the signal received.

    However, it may increase the production quality of the cable and the connections at either end. So by paying small money for a cable, you will receive the same signal as an expensive cable but the quality of the materials used might not be the same and might not put up with the same hardship if being plugged in and out regularly.

    I have accidently pulled the head off a cheap HDMI cable before but I was a little rough with it :o
