Would be great if ST add this feature in on X360 version, i mean i don't see why it can't be done, it seems pretty simple to code it in the game since X360 supports hard drive.

I know there is screen capture on other games like DOA4, and it might be possible to transfer files from 360 HDD to PC using one of those 3rd party device sold in game store, anyone tried this yet?

PGR3 had a function that you could upload your pictures to some site of Bizarre creations, not sure about it.. but for PSU it probably won't be there

i think it would be very possible to do, like save a screen shot to HDD as most driving games have this function as well as video runs to post on a site dedicated to the game and for others to view, so what if it has been ported to the 360?? we get superior graphics,sound,easier network use and maybe screen capture damn it could be sweet for the 360!!!

PSO V2 had a screencapture function.....it was awesome.
I doubt we'll see on here, though....you'll have to buy a Dazzle unit or a gamebridge to get screencaps/vidcaps.

Somethnig like the original pso on dc would be great, just a button combo to save a screenshot to memorycard or hdd.

i would think to try and capture a gap in the market maybe sega would make a screenshot function as the xbox has the power and thepc has software for it, the ps2 strains to handle PSU so it could never handle screen capture. i dont know if i would use it much if it was there tho it was a pain on the dc and gc

I think for the PS2, it's more a question of storage than anything else. You can only fit so much onto 8MB memory cards, especially without official HD support.

true, but many ppl might prefer playing PSU on X360 like me for voice chat on Live, dolby 5.1 on their home audio system, & widescreen mode on HDtv. Video capture might not be as useful as screenshots which could be easily implemented in the game for such things as taking pic of ur chars/items and posting them on web forum. The only reason ST couldn't make this on ps2 version was due to not enough memory space(no hdd)* as announced before. So, it's highly possible for PSU X360 to get this function.

yeah the lack of HDD on PS2 was sort of what i was refering to, that and the PS2 kinda strains to run the game with lots going on so adding a screen capture would just kill the PS2's chips. where as the 360 has screen/vid capture in most of its online games anyway

what the hell are you talking about... taking screencaps is not at all stressful.ffxi is arguably more stressful to a ps2 than psu yet no matter how bad the slowdown gets taking screenshots is not a problem. i honestly doubt there will be a screencap feature. the only reason pso had it is because of the vbbs plus psu wont have an interface like play online to e-mail yourself pictures.

Well, XI utilizes the HDD. As far as I know, PSU doesn't.

PSO ver.2 or PSO ep1&2 for GC anyone? those memory cards where farless then 8mb and you could do it on those versions...

It wouldn't be hard. DOA4 has that feature. That would be a really good feature
