This review is from: Madcatz MOV8215 PS2/PSX S-video & A/V Cable (Video Game)

I have a 20" Wega. I turned on the PS2 (Red Faction was in it), wired the SVideo input and the RF input to the TV at the same time, and switched between them by changing the input on the television.

NIGHT and DAY. More than any other console, the PS2 with this cable running SVideo looks about twice as good - clean delineations, almost no color bleed, and totally in focus. It is super dramatic.

Trust me, I've done the same with my XBox, Gamecube, and Dreamcast... seriously, the PS2 improves DRAMATICALLY with this cables's Svideo connector, more than any of the other consoles.

Again, I did this on a WEGA... maybe an older TV will look blurry no matter what you do. But based on my results, this cable is a no-brainer for anyone with a PS2.

If he bothered to look at the spec and the cable, he'd notice something. The Composite Out and S-Video Out come from different pinouts on the Sony Connector. So the RCA Composite Video plug is getting its feed from one set of pins on the connector, and the S-Video, with luminance and chroma separated, are coming from *different* pins. There *is* no meshing of the picture.

It's fun to theorize, but it's better to know what you're talking about.

1.0 out of 5 stars Bad Cables equal bad DVD playback!!, October 31, 2000

I bought these cables hoping for outstanding video from my PS2, but in return I got the worst video playback since the invention of the VHS tape. DVD playback makes actors looks like silhoettes anytime they are in a dark area with light from behind...it is like someone turned the brightness off, and put the contrast on high!!

Don't spend money on these...unfortunatly Amazon is not carrying the MonsterCable Gamelink 300 as of yet...otherwise I'd have them on the way to my house now!
