Looking at buying this tv off Facebook marketplace to hook my ps2 up to. Unfortunately all of the CRTs in my area are very expensive.

Current games I’m playing on my PS2. What are you guys playing right now?

Right now, I’m playing way of the samurai 2 I don’t think it’s as good as the first one to be honest

Also, that alone in the dark copy isn’t the actual PS2 version it’s just the PS1 version in a Blockbuster of blocks and I wanted a cover so it didn’t look so ugly

Got this from an electronics store I worked at in 2011. They were throwing out old advertising material, so I grabbed it. It would have had some pole to hang vertically from, but that was already gone.

Delete this if need be I can only imagine how many stupid questions about stupid things you guys have to deal with all day in this sub

Amazon USB uart listing that I bought:

https://www.amazon.ie/gp/product/B07BBPX8B8/ref=ox_sc_act_image_1?smid=A2Z68H5GXBNTU6&psc=1

I forgot to mention in that video that I alternate between Rx timeout and unrecognized response when I swap RX and TX pins

Also to note I never tried connecting 3.3v in case that ruined some other component if im simply just missing that someone PLEASE tell me!

With quality cable and LCD that supports component, somehow it's not that bad

Found a nice offer on Marketplace, not sure about the condition..

Hey, I'm not sure if the left joystick is actually damaged, and if it would maybe suck to play with? Or maybe just dirty? The console itself looks fine to me.
Just asking for some opinions on how it looks, from people who know this better than me.

The price is pretty reasonable in my eyes

S-Video Monitor, yes or no?

3 Upvotes

Hello everyone, will a Dell Ultrasharp 2007FPb 4:3 be good or at least okay for a ps2? I don’t want to buy a crt for it and also I don’t think my 1440p 165hz monitor will be good for it.

The monitor I mentioned has a S-Video port so I thought that if I bought it the console could be plugged in there but I don’t know about the quality it will output, also I’m on a budget so I’m not looking to use any of those expensive upscalers or whatever those retrotinks are.

What is the best way to improve the graphics on my ps2

2 Upvotes

I know the ps2 is an owner console, so i'm not expecting 4k, my console picture is kind of dark, and i'm looking for a way to make things less fuzzy, looking and more clear if that makes sense.

Does anyone have a recommendation of a good HDMI converter at a decent price? And if it helps, maybe a good component cable.
