HD gamers playing on CRT in Non-HD 4:3

Also, the CG opening is really meh.

A code entered before the game gets rid of the cg opening and restores all anime cutscenes

While I think modern games should be played on modern displays, some just scream for a CRT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPcYW9dTAUw

Well... The game is so detailed and probably the best 2D for the generation, besides, you need to see the pink objects (though, still looks good on the crt)

Going full 3D was probably too much for PS2. This should've been brought to PS3 if they wanted 3D models.

It was years before PS3 even existed and besides, PS2 could keep such game engines pretty smooth & busy as soon as 2001 (Baldur's Gate: Dark Aliance). All it took was a competent programming.

Heck, see what a riot Spartan: Total Warrior can be on PS2 as well as Xbox & GameCube.
