A PS2 video out cable. Does anyone have a spare they can give to me?

Right now I'm playing on my PC with an emulator and a ps3 controller but it's horribly slow and just not right. Damn, I wish they hadn't taken out backwards compatibility.

I *think* the PS1/2/3 all use the same video cables. I'll double check tonight -- if so, I'm sure I have a spare.

Bad news is that I can't find the video cables for my ps3 either. I think the cat stole them and traded 'em for street friskies or something. I borrowed the ps2 from my brother and he couldn't find the thing either. Forgot there's no hdmi on a ps2, it's been that long.

How about a controller? My nephews beat the crap put of the one they had. Half of the buttons refuse to work even after I took it apart and cleaned the contacts. I forgot how inconvenient wired controllers are.

Yes! I have a controller for you right now. Works perfectly. I sent you a text earlier, but in case you did not see it - send me your home address and I will mail you one!

I have to go to the post office this afternoon. I will mail the video cable out as well.

It will go out Monday! So by Wednesday you'll be able to say, "Man, this played better on Windows."


Console war! PS2 versus PCs! WHO YA GOT!

I want a better experience than what I'm getting with emulation. Also a fully working controller would be nice, I cant seem to turn right. This makes racing games very short lived. Call of Duty is fine...if I want to move in a straight line or strafe left for the whole game.

I have confidence in the PS2 console experience. It was fun in 2001 and it'll be fun now! or... soon, anyway.

Rock and roll! When I went to check my "stash" I found a set that had never been opened. I am 99% sure the PS1, PS2, and PS3 all use the same cables. I'm not sure which those came with but I hope they work. If not let me know and I will get some more out, more quickly next time.
