I actually have a PS2 and don't use it much, as it's a pain to hook up to a modern TV. Most games don't support progressive scan, which forces your TV to deinterlace, which im my case adds enough latency to make it unpleasant to play. There's some boutique hardware that can deinterlace with less latency, but then it starts to get expensive really fast.
Ideally you'd have to buy a CRT TV along with it.
Yes! That latency was very quick to induce nausea for me while trying to play Battlefront with my son. I thought maybe it was just the frame rate… but latency makes more sense.
Thanks for sharing that and solving a mystery for me!!
The base retrotink models work well and are inexpensive.
You mean the 99 USD one? After duties, VAT and shipment to EU, it will most likely get more expensive than the PS2 itself.
