I bloody hope this isn't a problem on the US PS2 as well... I've been banking on using the US machine to play my DVD collection (30+) for over a year now and if this is the case then... sod the PS2, I'll spend the £££ on a decent DVD player and wait till next summer (when more than 3 decent games will be out). I need to be able to watch DVDs via RGB because I don't have a US telly. I know that's my problem for being a PAL resident but FFS Sony you don't have to go out of your way to spite me. I strongly suspect this green hue has something to do with copy-protection, but I'm sure that's little consolation for those people who thought they were buying a SCART-quality DVD player at the weeekend. What's the difference between SCART on normal DVD players and RGB on the PS2 anyway? Anyone..? Does anyone of a more hardware-oriented bent know if a 3rd-party cable could be released to fix this? If not, it looks like I might have to cancel my preorder. =( Nick "pissed off" F
