Hi all,
I was given an original xbox by my brother with about 6 games, TV lead (12 more games to come) but no power lead or controllers.
Having found out that the power lead is a simple hifi type lead, I then sourced two controllers but after excitedly cleaning them up and going to plug them in I then discovered the concept of 'breakaway leads'!!!
I'm starting to wonder at what point to give up on this as I know it's an ancient console etc but only had it because it was free (can't afford an XBox 360 with games).
I'm hoping the breakaway cables will be all I need now, as the thing does come on but I can't do anything on it yet. Can anyone help me please by advising if these are for the original xbox or the xbox 360:

Still more than I was hoping to pay as the controllers cost me around a fiver for the pair... I suppose the 18 games would be worth something and be nice to play.
Of course, if anyone out there has a couple of these breakaway cables and fancies selling them that would be very nice
