Ok so I thought I'd give this a try. Does anybody know, or have heard of anyone trying to hook up their PS2 on their mac? I look at my monitors which are about a zillion times better than my tv, and thought it'd be awesome if there were some way i could hook up my ps2 to my mac? Anyone have any ideas or links where I could check it out??
Whats your thoughts?

Only thing with a low enough latency for it to be doable but still not 100%. I use it for my xbox but on games where timing and reflexes are very important it will make you miss a few hits.

Also note that your monitors resolution is much higher than that of the ps2/xbox so unless you use an S-Video/HD connection it will not be as clear as a tv
