Posted November 27, 2006 Just a set of comparison shots so you guys can see the distinct difference in these two forms of input. http://uk.gamespot.com/features/6162297/p-2.html?sid=6162297&page=2&cpage=4#comments Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 27, 2006 Is this comparison even necessary? It isnt even up for debate. The difference is night vs day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 27, 2006 Its necessary for those who havent seen the difference, obviously. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 27, 2006 They're crap comparisons of what I can see anyway. Just looks like the screens a diff sape n the colour's been turned down Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 27, 2006 i agree those comparisons are a joke... the difference, esp on a big screen, is huge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 27, 2006 What sort of display is that on? Would it make any difference on a regular CRT TV? I actually kind of prefer some of the composite images, because then you don't notice rough/pixely edges on some stuff. (I do appreciate the comparison muchly, because I'm pretty much the same as kav82, and had no idea of what sort of difference there'd be) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 27, 2006 Well I hadn't a clue what the difference was, I'm not what you'd call technically savvy! I don't have a clue what cables do what for the picture quality and I am HUGELY grateful for the comparison! Thanks Kaxxx! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 27, 2006 It gives a decent indication in my opinion. Obviously you are never going to see the difference properly unless you are looking directly at a screen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 27, 2006 I'm having difficulties with the fact that everything is moving. The Component ones seem much more stretched and bigger. I agree it must be hard to get two the same images, but even then. Oh, the super moneky ball one is just plain crap. Those colors can't be right. And now we're on it: does anyone know what the RGB cable does? the same thing as component? i'm thinking of getting one, but I don't know if it would be worth spending the €20 on it...

Posted November 27, 2006 I want RGB Vs Component!!! We all know coposite is cack!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 27, 2006 Cack is the worst word ever. And what's the deal with composite? There's no problem here using it. Not stop wyning and buy your component if you want them, buy your RGB when you want to and stop moaning. BTW: All cables in 'video displays explianed' topic.

Posted November 27, 2006 Cack is the worst word ever. Erm....How? ...Wait a second, you may speak English well in Belgium, but you can't go judging English slang words. Bet you'd say something Americanly stupid like "I can't believe he blew me off last night" Saying "Cack" is a crap word is like saying bloody or bugger are.

Posted November 27, 2006 After all my fuckin effort lol There there...*pat on the back* dont let these meanies get to you. If you cant see the difference in the first zelda pic in that link then theres somethign wrong with you. You can clearly see, apart from it moving, that didnt affect my viewing pleasure, but it seemed to me that the first zelda pic got a lot more sharper when i slid my mouse over it. You can see on that thing under the d-pad pictureon the left that its much more sharper on the edges. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 27, 2006 Wow, I never knew the difference was so good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 27, 2006 Hang on, so normal = composite, and mouse-over = component. So, for composite, you get an over-sharpened image (I can sharpen the image with component anyway), more-defined jaggies, and faded-out colours? So, according to GameSpot, people are paying extra for a worsened image quality? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So, according to GameSpot, people are paying extra for a worsened image quality? Like what's going on in the video displays sticky, you really do have to see games running in progressive for yourself - comparison pics are a load of balls really. If you saw composite and component in 480p side by side in real life, you actually couldn't say you can't tell the difference. Composite gives a noisy, blurry picture on such a high quality TV and component sorts all the problems out and gives a picture that developers intended.

Plug a gamecube to a HDTV with a composite, then plug RGB and see for yourself, the improvement is obvious. Composite even more. But you're just being picky, those Zelda pics clearly show the improvements. The textures don't look like a blur blob with composite. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
