Why spend 600 quid PS3 when you can pump out HD-resolution pictures from your old PS2 for a fraction of the price? That’s the question Xploder.net asked today after announcing an HD upscaler product for Sony’s current but soon to be displaced top-of-the-range console.
Dubbed the HDTV Game Player, the gadget coverts the PS2’s output into 720p or 1080i. The Game Player hooks up to your HD TV using an RGB component-video cable. Xploder said the device will provide “crystal clear picture quality… for all PS2 games”. It’ll also improve the image quality of games played on regular-resolution TVs, the company claimed.
Xploder will offer both PAL and NTSC versions of the HDTV Game Player. It will also output via a regular VGA cable to a computer monitor. PS2 users select the resolution they want on the console – the choices are saved to memory card.

This add is tramendously stupid but will probably fool a good portion of the public. Upconverting does very little for the quality your simply running your video through a filter to clean it up a little. The ps3 xbox360 as well as the wii will output much higher textures as well as more polygons then the current generation consols and no level of upconverting will show close to the same results.
