Hooking up Video games to Computer

[ila]

Yo. I'm looking for some sort of device that will allow me to hook up my PS2 and/or Wii to my computer, whether its through the computer or directly to the monitor. I don't have a TV in my room and the family room is always being used, so I really don't have a way to finish the 5 RPGs that I've started. Any suggestions? I'm a bit weary of the All in Wonder cards because as graphics cards they are quite limited. Not to mention I hear they have a significant delay when playing videogames.

You could get something that outputs to VGA so it can be displayed on your monitor.
Check: www.google.ie/search?q=ps2+to+vga&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a
or www.google.ie/search?q=wii+to+vga&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a
You could probably get an adaptor for each console, but you may want to get something that could hook up either.

Oh and I was never sure how many other people used the term "Family Room".

IIRC, Kulock uses this: shop3.outpost.com/product/4945691 and says it works great (and is only $25).

I use ADS VideoXpress (mainly for video capture), and works excellently, although a bit more expensive.

I have the gamebridge as well, (Kyoma does too)


It works good. The quality isnt the greatest (At times it warbles out like you're watching a movie on an old VCR), but it lets you do what you seem to be looking to do, plus more. (capture video and take stills)

I have quite a few videos on my youtube that would give a good showing of what to expect (maybe)

The GameBridge is great for capturing video, not so much for actually playing the games on your screen, but that may just be because my flat-screen monitor has a tendency to be dark. (Kind of miss my old one, I still have it, but it's a mammoth and was probably slowly giving me cancer or something from always being so close to it. Internet cancer.) It'll do the job, though, it's tiny, and comes with all the cords you'll need, pretty much.
