I got the MS one new, which was 25 euros, but you can get third party ones for as low as a few dollars from ebay.

Please let me know how Sonic Unleashed was on the 360 vs the PS2?

Should I get the Wii version or the 360 down the line?

you could get both and no level would be the same (same music and same level themes, but completely different layouts). Even the controls are a little different. The only parts where it plays almost exactly the same is some boss fights.

I'd lean more towards the 360 version. In terms of controls, while there are differences, it's much the same idea, and in that case I prefer running through the more pretty visuals in the 360 version (it's actually a really good looking game, producing graphics which at times can be confused with FMV). There's also simply a lot more content - there's a few stages that are completely absent from the wii/ps2 versions, there are far more subquests and instead of a map you can walk around through towns. The # of speed levels compared to werehog levels is a bit better balanced , but you'll still find yourself strolling around as the werehog more (in both games) because those levels are very long (they were split up into 3 stages for each location on the ps2, and the overall length of one stage on the 360 is about the same as that).

Dscaler's great for a PS2, but with the 360 I wouldn't be able to display the high resolutions. It's still nice for video capture though, and I'll be trying that in the future (too many 360 CAM recordings on youtube, it's my duty to combat that horror )

Indeed. I imagine you'd need a rocking TVTuner to get the high resolutions. When I first started using one, I was kind of disappointed with the PS2's output. But that'd be the PS2's fault...

you'd need a HDTuner capable of Composite input.

an HDMI video i/o card is more expensive than the PS3 itself.

Well, my PS2 has officially kicked the bucket. After nearly 9 years of gaming goodness, it decided that tonight was the night to say goodbye I'll be spending tomorrow, which happens to be Sunday (or today if you want to be technical....) burying her in the backyard and saying my goodbyes.

Then I'll be off to EBgames to pick up a new PS2 (I've always liked the Slim models) and a stack of pre-owned goods I've been meaning to toy around with. So expect some pics sometime this week

*Edit
That actually came out to sound a bit...dirty Didn't realize that when I was typing...

I don't think they're bio-degradable...

But hey, it chose a good time to die with the new price drop.

fortunately ps2's are cheap now... if mine would stop working I'd just get another as well.

a hd tv tuner card... nah, that's not something I have... would be kinda nice to have, but I think I'd be getting a new tv before that.

Make damn sure its the redesigned slim, the original slim has an issue with the spindle which causes disks to not lock into place properly.

I have the Slim one, and i bought Code Breaker + Action Replay to play some games with Codes, The god damn thing can't run it, Only on the Original one "The Big one".and i'm sooo mad.

[Exodus]

I've never had issues with my slim, but I've also never tried those unlicensed programs like CodeBreaker (or is it licensed? I'm not even sure).

My "Original" Slim croaked three and a half years into use, I have the redesigned slim, but I've only owned it for a few months, since November, IIRC, and I haven't used it much since then...

I don't know much about the differences other than my "new" PS2 Slim is silver...

The one I picked up today was silver too.

The only blacks they had were pre-owned ones. I would've preferred black myself, but I wanted it new. Oh well, the console matches with my screen

I even can't use my flash memory via Code breaker, Because Sony did stupid things with the Slim, But there is news about the new Code breaker. The Original One is Rulezzzzzzzz.

[Exodus]

Hmm... I use my flash memory stick no problem with my slim...
