Hi

Is it possible to use your PC moniter as a screen to play ps2 games. So instead of hooking your ps2 to a tv hook it to a pc and play.

if possible how is it done?

Thanks

Yes,

There are two options here.

One is the XGA Box. Its a small box that converts the standard A/V or S-Video output from a game console to VGA input to your computer.
Best part is it has good resolution and it handles PAL also. You wont see the difference.

The other option is (I forgot the name) a component box. Its similar to the XGA but takes in only component video from game console and converts to VGA.

I have the XGA box and its just great. I've done all my gaming on it. Especially, if you dont have an LCD TV, this thing beats the hell out of a regular TV.
