Your tv pictures look like they are at widescreen resolution and i'm pretty sure they are fullscreen. The normal tv resolution is 640x480 (4:3) not 720x 480. What you are doing is stretching an image and making it lose it's aspect ratio because you think that you can add "more resolution" to an image already encoded at 640x480. If you want to add more resolution to a tv feedback use a resolution that won't stretch it (a direct multiple of 640x480 like 1280x960).

Sadly my Ps2 is dead right now

but don't worry since i searched all over the forum to find the pictures i posted about Tekken 5 but i couldn't find them (i remember somebody even told me about my weird aspect ratio). I managed to find some pics posted by Kaneda and Industrian, including some Re4 ones.

More importantly, can you make Tekken 5 look as good as Kaneda's pictures?

If you've played PS2 games and their PC ports, you'd see that most games use a technique where the close part of a scene is clean while the far off part is all jumbo up. Games like Chaos Legion, Devil May Cry 3, and probably Resident evil 4 when it hits the PC.

Have you heard a lot of people who think otherwise and still think we are at fault? Have you tried Dscaler with a proper config instead of that ****ty Ati software?
That effect that you mention is a way used by programmers to optimize the engine of the games and make them run smoothly. Reading that part of your post i repeat what i said in my earlier post: i see you have problems with Ps2 graphics, not how they look on a tv or a monitor, you simply don't like the effects they use.
This pic of Re4 was sent to me by Industrian in a pm. Does yours look like this?
Does this FFX pic looks like trash to you? Without a proper config this part looks really jagged, now look at it:

Or simply go to this url:
Pictures of your new games
Btw, i dont know how i managed to end up with different image sizes, sorry
