    Angry RF Adapter help

    Ok so I have an old tv and I bought an rf adapter but when I try to plug it into the back of the tv it doesn't fit. Are there different types of the rf adapter or am I just being stupid and missing something? It's for my 360 and it has the adapter to plug into the 360 but I can't get it to go into the tv. My fiance has an rf adapter as well and we plugged it into the same tv for my game cube but I can't get it to go for my 360. The two rf's are different ones (his is at school with him). Can anyone help me?

    How old are we talking? Like the kinda old where it has no red yellow and white plugs? Where it only has one place where the cable goes into the tv? x.x I'm no expert on adapters though... Where's reclaimer when you need him

    Yes there is no place for the red/white and yellow cables and only the one place to plug it in. And I still can't get it to hook into the stupid tv !! It's really making me mad !!

    360 doesn't support RF adapters which is why it comes with the base composite (Y/W/R)

    seriously, RF...? TV's are hella cheap, even for a ****ty tube with the inputs. Go to walmart even.

    Actually... I have an RF adapter for the 360, I don't know if it actually works because I originally bought it for my ps2 but I don't know why it wouldn't ^^

    Yea I was really hoping that that user was kidding because if not that was pretty bad. If the rf adapters didn't work with the 360 then they wouldn't make them for it.

    No, there are no different types of rf adapters. You just have to buy one for each device that you have to plug into a coaxial connection.

    I don't understand why it wouldn't just screw in like the GameCube rf adapter, the only thing that I can think of is that the center core cable is bent. Look at the end of the rf adapter that goes into the back of the tv, you should see a cable directly in the middle of the "circle." If its not use a finger nail and position it so that it is centered in the middle. If it is centered in the middle and it still won't screw in, I would exchange the cable for a new one at the store.

    As pathetic as it sounds I don't have the money to spend on a new tv, even one from wally world. I have a tv upstairs that is fine but that's the one that's in my room and it's heavy and I don't want to lug it downstairs and then back up when I'm done playing. It would be a huge pain in the tushy and I just can't do it.

    Thanks I will check the rf adapater and find out and if it still doesn't work my fiance comes home in a few days and I'll just have him do it. He got the game cube one to work so he can get this one to work.

    Thanks everyone.

    Yea well the one I have right now works so it won't be for awhile but it's pretty good for online play. I was playing earlier...attempting the basic training. Finally beat the BT so play me! I'm not all that great but I'll give you a run for your money once I get warmed up. (yes that is a challenge).
