I'm talking about the original game, BTW. Not TMBO. After watching this video:
...and along with my own experiences, I think I have it narrowed down as to which versions have the best image quality (along with being reliable):
-PS2 fat/original slim with LevelHike HDMI
-PS4 Pro
-PSCX2
Not listing the fat PS3 due to it's YLOD issues (both my 60 and 80gb systems died. Now I just have a working, top-loader slim).
The LevelHike HDMI has breathed new life into my fat PS2 and looks fantastic; but I have yet to experience the other 2 options. PS4 Pro looks appealing thanks to the added trophy support. PSCX2 looks appealing thanks to it's customization and how you can push the boundaries of it's visual quality. And then of course playing on PS2 original hardware with HDMI is appealing given that it is not emulation.
So what is your favorite way to play? Or is there a better way I haven't listed?
Ps: I was inspired to make this post because I'm thinking about buying a PS4 Pro for a Black Friday deal this year to play TMB and War of the Monsters w/ trophy support (and hopefully even better looking than my fat PS2 with HDMI).
