I stopped using my hdmi adapter because it wasn’t looking as good as the component video. You got the 1920 to work? What version of OPL do you have? I might have to try it again!

Now that you mention it, I’ve had mixed results forcing resolutions through OPL. But the factory ones you do with button combos always work great.

Oh, you can still get storage on the slim. I just did Gusse’s IDE resurrector on mine, but there is a better version out there now with much larger SD card support.

I played through Black for the first time this year on my old Fat with a sata hdd. How great was that game? It felt a generation ahead of its time, especially using the higher res display mode and the component video.

If you don’t already have a good controller solution, I highly recommend the Brook Wingman. I’m using mine with a Dual Shock 3 for the analog buttons (gotta have them for Ace Combat), but it supports so many controllers.

That’s pretty easily avoidable, too. Don’t play online games, or talk to people. That’s what I do.
