Listen Up People! If you want to play on the XBOX, you NEED this cable! It's the ulimate way to get electricity from the wall to your spanking new console and back again. I saw a demo of this thing at my local Radio Shack, and man, I tell you what: That radio we had it hooked to powered right up in no time! I nearly wept right there in the store.

(...) What an ingenious piece of machinery, elegantly designed and ergonomically sound. You can't play the Xbox without this!
Great!!!

This has been the single greatest investment since I bought my XBox. I sold the one I got with it for (dollar amount). This one is much higher quality. The system powers up much faster now.
I thought all power cords were the same, but...

This puts them all to shame. Throw out the shoddy cord that comes with the XBox. The AC Cable from InterAct has it all - wire, insulation, wall plug, another wire AND an XBox-compatible socket! Keeps my XBox flawlessly powered for hours. I also love the stylish black color - it goes with any decor.
This is not needed - this is a replacement cable

I understand sarcasm but the other reviewers are not helping here. If you know nothing about the X-Box or video game systems they all come with their own power cable. This item is not needed to use your new X-Box. This cable is sold as a replacement for one that has been lost or damaged. Good luck and good gaming. Wayne.
Okay, the truth. Why this?

This item seems redundant at first, I know. But it could truly be handy when used with a second A / V adapter of some sort. How many of you have AC outlets behind a stereo cabinet or large rear-projection TV? How many of those who could say yes to that question also have another TV that you'ld also like to hook your Xbox to? If you get a 2nd audio/video cable and a 2nd AC cable mounted to the alternate TV, than moving the Xbox from the main A / V system in your home to the alternate set would be only an unsnapping and the a snapping of 2 cords. Think about it, no crawling behind the cabinet and hunting for wires, no moving cabinets, no accidently disconnecting the wrong connections. It's just 2 snaps! What a convieniance.
Um, some of us *need* a spare cable!

My XBox is normally sitting next to my 65" TV, with its power cord hidden safely away from my cats by the TV, the AV stand and a folding table that blocks the cats. If I want to move the XBox to my other TV or to bring it to a gaming party, it takes about 20 minutes to gather the power cord. I've been searching for a spare. And now I've found one!
Nice to have when you need one

You all laugh about them selling this, but it's good they offer it. I left my power cable at a hotel and didn't realize it until I was 400 miles away. Needless to say it's cheaper to buy a replacement...
Just remember, sometimes replacement parts are hard to find, be thankful this isn't.
Okay, at least it's available without too much trouble...

It's another power cord, that's all it is, but at least it's available. I move the XBox from my living room where I play games to the bedroom where I use it as a DVD player, and it's so simple to just have a second cable around instead of reaching underneath the TV stand and bedroom dresser to keep plugging and unplugging the cord. It's up to you, for convenience sake.
Works with a variety of things!

Some time ago I got a printer but it didnt come with a ac cord but Christmas came and before I hooked my xbox up,I also noticed I could use the ac cord for the Printer.After that I noticed I could use for the radio.The xbox cord can be used for lots of electronics,most videogame companys use their own design.Xbox type cords are hard to find but all you have to do is buy a xbox ac cord.
