Playstation 2 on a Computer Monitor?
 

Is there some kind of adapter that enables one to play his PS2 on a regular computer monitor?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but all I think you'd need is a video card with a video input. A video card with a complete set of inputs (1 video and 2 audio) would work nicely as well. Look up ATI All-In-Wonder cards. They may be a bit pricey, around $100.00, but are well worth the investment ...

I always wondered how the monitor adapter in the ps2 linux kit worked.

That would work, but I think chriscruz2 wants real VGA. I don't know of a device yet that enables this.

Won't work on a computer monitor to play PS2 games. PS2 games are NTSC not VESA

The VGA cable that comes with the Linux kit won't let you play most games on a monitor. The game has to output a 480p signal in order for it to work. Almost all games right now do not have this coded into the game. Future games will most likely use this feature. Tekken 4 already allows a 480p output display and can work with the VGA cable that comes with the Linux kit. The closest solution to a VGA adaptor that will work on all current games is to by an upscan converter which will take the signal and convert it so it can be used with a monitor.

Ahh I see, thanks for the info.
