Playstation 2
Alongside games, I also like to collect DVD's. Because I am a snob, I like to watch my DVD's on the good old Playstation 2 as god intended. However I have been having an issue where my PS2 will not play some of my DVD's. At first I thought it has something to do with widescreen DVD's as usually those are the ones that don't work most of the time, but that cant be it because: A) I can play my widescreen Sweeny Todd DVD and it works fine, albiet shrunken to fit the PS2's aspect ratio B) The problem extends to some DVD's that are not widescreen, like my copy of Matilda which appears to be in 4:3. My second theory is that it may have something to do with the speed the disk's are being burned at by the companies that make them. My reasoning for thinking this is that whenever I burn my own CD's or DVD's at a faster speed, my PS2 and other older devices struggle to read them; but I have no way of knowing if this is the cause. Does anybody else know what may be causing this issue?
All PS2 games look really blurry on Panasonic Viera TV. For comparison, when I play the Jak trilogy on PS5 (which is just the PS2 ports), it has a sharp and crisp image. But the same games on an actual PS2 are much lower quality. This leads me to think there's some scaling issue that the PS5 automatically fixes since I don't think they remastered it or anything. And the same applies to every PS2 game. It's currently connected via RCA component cables, and I tried messing with the game mode settings on the TV but it didn't really do anything noticeable. I'm wondering if I should buy a PS2 to HDMI converter or if that might be even worse than the current set up. I don't have much money I can spend but if I need to I will, just whatever it takes to get it looking good. It looks like sh*
Hi all, I’m currently the only mod here and I’ve sadly had to be less active given sizable real life responsibilities. So posting here to see if anyone is up for assisting in mod management? It's still pretty small right now but it's good to get ahead on these early I feel. Some of the other 6th gen communities could also use some as well, but those are currently small enough that I'm starting here first and posting on those later on given the smaller post pool. If anyone’s interested just comment below and I can get things approved from there, Preferably say any experience you have if applicable.
Is there a way to move an archived version of the posts over to here? The subreddit seems to be dead but there is so little content here.

This is pretty much the best guide on getting the most out of your PS2.
I am just curious. It looks pretty cool. I hope that the devs make it work out.
