quite alot
the small text in GT$ is readable on a component
while on a composite it is just a garble garbage

not all carrefour carry this product

never seen on the seberang jaya branch

ps2 max output signals at sd rez - 1280x1024
but usually the games run on 640x480
only some newer games like tourist trophy said to supports 1080 rez

so when on a sd rez put through a hd tv
all you seeing is a zoomed image

when on the sd tv each pixel is made to display a different thing, plus the size is smaller
being on a hdtv, several pixel is set to display the same thing thus blocky
also the size of the tv doesnt help

hey not everyone can afford the latest system
i still enjoi GT4, Shadow of the Colossus, Final Fantasy etc.. on my Slim PS2 with HDD mod (320GB)

love to but all i play on a PC LCD is dell 24" which comes with a component port

where would your optical sound goes out
I remember the optical work well enough with a logitech sound system
if the tv have optical support, no harm in testing

from waht i can deduce
the yellow-red-white is a composite cable
being the yellow as video and red-white as the stereo

you can try buying a component cable or even a s-video

which can improve the visual alot
with the sharpness in the alphabet characters

but the blockiness is really down to the game
since each game is coded differently, so those small rez game will feel awful blown up in a hi-rez big-sized LCD
