Looks like an upscaler to me.
TBH, this sounds like buying some 3-D glasses to upgrade your video card.
:lol: Nice oneQuote:

It will just take the PS2’s output signal and convert it into a standard HDTV one. The image quality improvements come from eliminating the analogue part of the link (assuming it does this – would be silly if it didn’t).
The texture resolutions on the disk will not magically be better, they will just be stretched over more pixels, and the PS2 doesn’t have anywhere near enough processing power to provide a stable HDTV output for most games.
Think of it the same way as playing a Megadrive game on your PC monitor via an emulator. While your screen will be of a much higher resolution, the games textures and assets can only be as good as the original – they just get mapped onto more pixels in the process.
But it will probably of no better quality than a half decent TVs built in scaler :rolleyes:
I see whatyou say about cutting out the analogue which will be better i suppose, - so HDMI instead of composite?
Until you turn on antialiasing in Gens32Surreal and become blissfully, blissfully happy :DQuote:

Should be within the next few weeks
This should be interesting. GT4 in "true" 1080i (like the PS3 tech thingy...)
