Understand your concern. The light new bulb will eventually fail, but there is nothing special about the input from the xbox that will make it fail sooner. The light bulb is constantly on, it does not react to the signal from the xbox. The Sony WEGA takes the signal from the xbox and puts it on an LCD panel. The picture comes from the LCD panel that is between the light bulb and the lens.

Perhaps someone else can jump in and give an opinion, I think it's OK. Good luck whatever you end up doing.

(as an alternative, a note to SONY support asking if it is OK to play an xbox 360 on your Wega should also confirm that it is safe, and might make you feel more confortable about running this configuration).
