PixelFX brings you the very first true, pure digital video output mod for the legendary PlayStation 2 console. Order this modification and ship us your PlayStation 2 console (note, not all models are supported, see this page for more information) and we will supply, professionally install and test this amazing upgrade.
We use PixelFX’s GEM board for this upgrade. More information here. The version supplied with your console will be GEM Basic, with the option to upgrade to GEM Shiny at any time.
Once installed, you can play PlayStation 2 on any HDTV and get the crispest, most noise free image possible from the classic machine. With the basic board you can connect directly to a next generation video scaler (PixelFX Morph 4K, OSSC Pro or RetroTINK 4K) with pass-through mode (coming soon). Alternatively, upgrade to the GEM Shiny edition to unlock motion adaptive deinterlacing and up to 1440p output directly on the console, no external scaler needed. Pay only for the features you need, that’s the beauty of the Retro GEM.
Features:
- Native digital video and audio, no conversion to/from analogue at any time
- Motion adaptive deinterlacing for high quality flicker free image (requires Shiny upgrade)
- Output line doubled 480p
- Output interger scaled 960p (requires Shiny upgrade)
- Output in 1080p and 1200p is also supported (960p with borders) for pixel perfect presentation with the correct aspect ratio (requires Shiny upgrade)
- Extensive scanline options (advanced scanlines and filters require Shiny upgrade)
- WiFi Updates
- Instant 240p to 480i switching
- Mini HDMI cable neatly replaces the optical audio port, for a no-cut mod
