Hardware/software used to create screenshots?

[oddigy]

Hi there,

I was reading your VP2: Silmeria review, and I noticed that this site has some of the highest resolution, highest quality screenshots I've ever seen.

Could you please share which hardware and software you used to capture these?  I'd love to be able to hook up my PS2 to my widescreen LCD and capture what I see in the game's native resolution.  I haven't looked around too much, but I've yet to find any type of hardware capture device that allows component inputs.

Thanks. :D

The majority of console screenshots you see on the site come from the companies themselves - those screens were from a batch we got from S-E - we're not quite sure why they're so high res, either.

Probably came from a dev kit.

Dang, was hoping there was some way I could do it myself.
Thanks for the info. :)

I'm not totally certain if I should purchase this thing, but guess it should maybe do the job to take snapshots from the consoles.

What I use to rip videos and pictures:

ATI all in wonder (discontinued) could probably find one on ebay.
