Yeah, that's a good game. Another good game is DMC, the first one, it's cheap, and it's great.

No idea, I just use the RFA I had for my PS1, since I just have a regular TV.

Yes you do. Monster makes the best consumer cables out there. My game recomendations would be GTA: Vice City, definatly worth the $50. MoH: Frontline, not as good as MoH: AA but IMO the best FPS for PS2. I'd rent MGS2 before buying it if I were you, it's good but it's not for everyone. There are many other great games but these are an awesome start.
