How to Play Xbox 360 on Laptop with HDMI

HDMI inputs on laptops are like unicorns – rare and probably a myth. Does your TV need more love?
As someone who’s tried this, a capture card is your best bet. I used an Elgato HD60 and it worked flawlessly. Just connect the Xbox 360 to the capture card, and the capture card to your laptop via USB.
Most laptops only have HDMI output, so it's easier to play on a TV. Otherwise, buy a video capture device and use software like OBS to display the Xbox 360 on your laptop screen.
