I been searching for a scaler solely for playing my old backlog of PS3 720p games, since the PS3 does not have a hardware scaler & my Samsung TV scales the content very poorly (especially when compared to the Xbox 360, which does hardware scaling).
I been coming here on & off for the past 5 years, but every time I searched, the cheapest quality scaler goes for around $700.
I looked up the prices of the video scalers in the stickied threads & they are going for $1,500.
I'd have to be crazy to spend that much on a video scaler, when a lot of new big screen TV's cost less than that nowadays. All just to play a handful of $10 games.
Have the prices not come down since then, is there no cheap alternatives to scale 480p or 720p content to a 1080p TV with HDMI cables?
