Widescreen High Definition Television

Sooo how would that look?
i have a 42 inch widescreen HDTV and im thinking of getting a ps2 cause i really feel like playing some of the games it has :p
so ya would it by any chance look good?

also, how much does it cost now? should i get a modded one from pacific mall?
Maybe i should use a ps2 on my computer monitor?

Wrong!
PS2 looks awesome on a HDTV.

Gran Turismo 4,is by far the best.
It displays up to 1080i on a HDTV!
Almost full HD.
Plus you have all these cool stuff,like you can put in a external HDD(up to 500GB)into your PS2s USB slots and take pictures of your cars in Gran Turismo 4,and save it to your HDD,or pendrive,Ipod,MP4 even PC.

Plus,you have all these great games.

This LCD high-definition screen is a very good buy for the low price (on sale at BestBuy for 299.99, I actually got it for 250 with some coupons I ...

Need to know, are all high-definition televisions in widescreen? Can there be a regular 4:3 television that supports hi-def signals?

no one seems to be making 4:3 aspect anymore.

i know i already asked this, but i really have to clarify.
I have a 42 inch LCD Samsung HDTV, and im looking to buy a ps2 slimline for christmas for the great ps2 originals.
here are some answers i'd like to know, and dont mention newer HD games such as GT4. I'm NOT gonna get a ps3, and before you ask, i have a HDTV because i have an xbox 360.

1. How will the ps2 look overall on my hdtv? i can always set it back to 4:3 or any kind of adjustments.
2. Im looking to buy some older games, like Final Fantasy 10, and games that old, how will Final Fantasy 10 specifically look?
3. Taking in considering that i sit 2meters away from the screen?
4. I played Resident Evil 4 for Gamecube on my tv, how will the ps2 games look compared to it?
5. How about if i used my PS2 with my 10"x8" widescreen(sorta :p) computer monitor?
6. I heard i need some extra cables for better visuals, which ones will i need?
7. Is there a way to temporarily change my TV's native resolution, or just change its resolution to 480p or something like that?

and lastly, ive heard some bad things about ps2 slimline, should i get phat or slim (supposing i can find a phat somewhere) and what the prices will be? thank you
Details
I can sit up to 3 meters further, but i am afraid that i won't be able to see the details well enough
Haha how can I NOT want a ps3? Of course i want one but i can't afford it. Besides not many ps3 games i really want to play, just some PS2 Originals
when you say it will look ok, bad, etc. put if you mean my hdtv or computer monitor
Oh right

HDTV or Computer Monitor

1. it won't look that bad because i always play my ps2 on my 42 inch hdtv and it still has good graphics just not the best
2 and 3. they will look good and i usually play old games like need for speed hot pursuit 2 and tony hawk pro skater 2 and they look good from close distance
4. It will look a little better than the gamecube because ps2 has better graphics
5. I've never tried a computer monitor but im guessing it will be the same
6. You can probably get a component cable which is better resolution than an a/v cable
7. It will change automatically because it won't but hd to play games that don't support that.

i have a ps2 fat version and it is better protected and has fans inside to the dust won't get in and it will cool down the system and the slot to put in disks is a lot safer from dust than the ps2 slim because the slimline leaves the disk reading lenses unprotected.
A new slimline will cost around $120 and the fat version you will find only at gamestop or online where they sell used systems for cheaper prices

I looked at a Philips widescreen 47 inch high definition television. I was looking at the oline manual, and I saw this service UART in the diagram. The section that tells you what it is, says "For use by authorized service personnel, for installers, integrators, do not connect RS232 without level shifter". What is this Service UART mean, and what does it do?

UART stands for Universal Asynchronous Reciever Transmitter....it's used to Update Software or make internal adjustments...it's strictly for the servicers to use.

There is special software and an interface box used to access this special service port.....

I don't think you want to buy the special kit to access this when the servicer can access the same adjustments with the secret code that servicers know....
The kit costs over $600.00.....
