S-Video

[Blight]

Does anyone else use it? I had to buy a new PS2 hook in, so I just got a multi connector that supports all three consoles, and used S video as well. I have never seen HD on games, but people that have always downplayed to the difference between regular A/V and S video. Let me tell you, if you haven?t seen it, wow. The difference is the sharpness and brightness. Text is easier to read, colors are more vibrant, and fuzziness is gone totally. The difference to me is so impactful, I wonder how I stood playing games before, cause I can?t go back to regular video now; it is a pale specter of how games should be viewed. As much as I dislike Baten Kaitos, the game was gorgeous and looks so much better in S-Video. Skies of Arcadia Legends, even while old, was a lot darker when viewed with just A/V. With S-Video it was way, way brighter and sharper as well. The clarity provided by S-Video is something to behold. I?ve tried a lot of games with, Bard?s Tale, God of War, Freedom Fighters, all look significantly better. If your T.V. has support for it, I suggest getting the hook up. Because HD may look amazing but the cost for it is something I won?t be able to afford for a long time, if ever. I?m not sure it would be worth buying a new T.V. for, but if you plan on getting a new tube, make sure it has the support, because it is worth it.
