raiden1817 Oct 30, 2002, 01:21 PM Please give your estimates heatbball Oct 30, 2002, 04:35 PM same price as normal dvd players. but they arent only dvd players. thats y they r worth more Borgy Oct 30, 2002, 05:02 PM bout £50 as a DVD player... that's if they were just a DVD player As there not that good for playback eg. VCD/SVCD, very picky for DVDr etc. jonesm Oct 30, 2002, 05:20 PM Higher-£70.00 ragingdevil Oct 30, 2002, 06:15 PM PS2 DVD playback is worse than a sub-£100 DVD player. The picture is darker, and more grainy. jeff011n Nov 03, 2002, 09:52 AM a standalone dvd player is so damn cheap these days, probally not much, most ppl own a dvd player besides the console, personally I have never watched a dvd on my console so much more convient to just pop it in the good ol dvd player. Jaice Nov 03, 2002, 04:46 PM my ps2 dvd play back is good You get crappy play back if you using RFU adapater. Use S-video or av king bush Nov 03, 2002, 07:37 PM I would say about the price of one of the cheapest dvd players Borgy Nov 04, 2002, 01:21 PM nah PS2/xbox are less compatable than a cheap Dansai/Cyberhome/Pacific etc, definately no more than £50 jaguarsin2001 Nov 04, 2002, 01:31 PM Just take a look at one of the "Nuon-enhanced" dvd players that are on clearance around the web...that'll give you an idea of how much a game console would be worth as a dvd player...not too much... jags dark_camel Nov 04, 2002, 01:56 PM probably about £30 for ps2, maybe £40 for a xbox, cant understand all the pepl that use em, picture is rubbish even with svideo. tyhey cant play svcd, or vcd, or mp3, on their own. quality is blocky, grainy barely better than a decent vhs, worse than an ok svhs video. compare with a cheapo cyber home for £80 (which plays svcd, vcd, mp3, etc etc) and theyll wonder what they been watching. i got a toshiba for £130 multiregion and the picture is soo much better. dvd playing is just a function tacked on to the machines. PSXMatt Nov 04, 2002, 01:57 PM Yep.. about £50... 49er Nov 05, 2002, 11:04 AM How long do you think it'd take people to realise that they play games too? ;) |
