Dreamcast question
Lilwolf:
Next major Dreamcast question.
Should I go VGA->27" EYGO monitor or TV? Do I need SVid?
gnateye:
for the record some games like tony hawk and their ilk (matt hoffman, and that style) work with either analog or digital controls, i play tony hawk in my cab and it is one of my favs, it takes a lil getting used to, using the stick instead of the directional pad, but after a few minutes, its just as fun 8)

Well, if you don't have a VGA monitor and want to go on the cheap, then TV with S-Video. Otherwise why not go VGA??

DC VGA looks wicked nice and the adapter is definately worth picking up. To be fair though, I'd like to say:
Most rendered stuff looks really really good. Ikaruga, Virtua Tenis, etc look incredible. However 2d sprite stuff tends to stands out as sprite-y. Most likely they were just included at lower resolutions, but with games such as MvC2 or CvS2 the backgrounds look great and the characters look pixel-y.
Also, some games won't work with the adapter. The only game I've had not work is KOF EVO, it flat out tells you it's not compatible with the attached video adapter. Oh, and some boot discs don't like booting up with them, though this may be fixed.

this has a lot to do with which adapter you have too, i have the dragoncast one and it doesnt work with a lot of games, but some of the others work great.......
it looks awesome though for sure.
