I currently have a Blaze VGA adapter, but i was curious if there was a better one out there...
I know some have sound issues....

Which is the best? and where is the best place to pick it up?

VGA is VGA, but a lot of Blaze models are diferent from each other.

I personally have one but I don't know what model is.

It has two stereo headphones jacks, volume regulator, RCA Stereo output, S-video, VGA and composite video. Totally satisfied with.

Has anyone here played Shenmue in VGA mode?
Is it a marked improvement or are the jaggies and aliasing problems even more apparent?
Any performance hit in the framerate department?

I would think that the jaggies would be even more apparent, since a PC monitor is much sharper and would tend to exagerate any pixilation. I'm not sure about the aliasing stuff though, but you'd probably have the same problem there I'm guessing.

Makes sense. I've played Shenmue via standard composite output and S-Video and I prefer the composite to be honest. S-Video just makes the game seem, well, garish for lack of a better term.

Any word on frame rate performance (in general) when playing via VGA?
