Yea after beating Zelda I knew there wold be a large gap between that and my next game. I only sold the system itself and kept the Wavebird, memory card and S Video monster hookup.

I did that same thing minus the S videos hookups. When I get my wega, I'll pick up that 3-in-1 monster cable hookup for my consoles.

Does the Monster 3-IN-1 hookups offer a better picture than the xbox HDTV pack.

Good question

To be honest with you I really don't know...I've never bought any video enhancements before.

Re: Console Price Drops?

I have the Advanced HDTV pack for the xbox. The picture is still not as clear as I'd like. I wouldn't expect that on a projection screen though but I'd like to get the 3-in-1 for my PS2 because it looks horrible on my new tv with the regular video cables.

No I just change my mind alot. I wish I could explain it.

Between my purchases of Gamecube consoles (4), Dreamcast consoles (I think 6 or 7) and ATV Off Road Fury for the PS2 (around 10), I could have bought a small island.

Of course I would get bored of the island and sell it.

Just something to bear in mind. I have used an S-Video and Component Monster cable on my Wega with the PS2. Results will vary. The colors are definately crisper but you will increse your jaggies and flickering on such a set.

I have gone back with the standard hookup for the PS2 as I would rather reduce the flickering and jaggies over the color. S-Video for Gamcube (when I have it) and Component for Xbox.

Re: Console Price Drops?

Nivek go with a HDTV with progressive scan if you want to pick up the Monster cables and take advantage of them. WEGA isn't HDTV compatible right?

I also have the Monster cables for PS2 and Xbox and the jaggies/flickering is evident on the PS2 like Brent said. But overall the picture quality is tenfold better than a standard hookup.
