Playstation 2

I have a question. The new PS2's feature something new to the gaming world and I just wanted to know exactly what this means. I was just reading about the new GT3, Test Drive and a few other games and the critics kept referring to how they companies of the games made excellent use of the "Anti-aliasing" of the PS2. What is "Anti-aliasing"?

Why does Sea World have a seafood restaurant? I'm halfway through my fishburger and I realize, Oh my God....I could be eating a slow learner

Anti-aliasing is the process that blurs the edges of objects in 3D rendering. It's kinda hard to notice if you just turn it on and off; you really need to see before and after examples side by side to really see what it does.

I can point out a poor example, though. When you start a PC, and the Windows startup screen comes up, the word "Windows" is anti-aliased, but the pixels are huge, so it looks like it was a smaller picture that has been blown up. Otherwise it would just look like a large font, with smooth, crisp edges.

Thank you very much for that explanation. Now I understand.
