Not if you have two copies, it puts it on two TVs, great fun!

Nah still too small! Would be better if i could play it on my projector, but you can't use the light guns! Although Halo & GT3 on a 3m screen is quite nice!

Lol...

Time Crisis 2 was on one screen :D.

But the better solution to getting an iLink is a widescreen TV, 28"+. Then it's like playing with two 14" screens.

Briliant.

Yup tis as ßulle†† and Cion have put it. The only game i would recommend it for is time crisis 2 (& 3) Makes you fell a bit more arcadey rather than two people squashed onto one screen!

iLink is just a sexed up version of a Link Cable. Nothing special and as Coin said, hardly supported.

I wouldn't go out of my way to utilise it if I were you.

The I-Link just flopped, not many games use it - it's rare to have 2 PS2's and two TV's next to each other.

Basically all it is is a cable that connects two PS2's together via a port (next to the USB's) and let's you play on seperate TV's. Useful for FPS's, but still pretty pointless.

Only games that I'm sure use it (mind you, people often get confused - "Network Play" means internet play not i-Link play) are;

Age of Empires 2
Timesplitters 2
Gran Turrismo 3

And I think THUG and THPS 3+4 use it aswell.

Would go for a Network adapter though, it actually is useful.
