Play PS2 games on your computer.

[Dygear]

I have looked all around and I can't seem to find any thing out there that allows me to play my PS2 games on my monitor, I would of thought it would of been a trivial thing too. I have been told that 480i will not work on most computer monitors if you don't convert it some how. So I am going to have to make it a requirement that it MUST be able to play 480i *This keeps it to a TV Card in my computer*

I am looking to play some PS2 games (Well just one, GT4) on my computer's monitor, I don't care much about the price just keep it below 200 USD. It would be nice if you could get a PCI card that can run in; 480i, 480p, 1080i modes. The 1st two are a must. The last one (1080i) is not needed, but it would be nice.

If you know of any please post them here,
Thank you for your time,

The player included with most TV cards allows the image to be stretched to fit the monitor. So you can input any NTSC TV signal to an NTSC TV tuner card and stretch it to fit the monitor. Same goes for PAL to PAL.

You can't get 1080i with an analog card, 480p is standard.

So far as I know an emulator for PS2 does not exist yet.

The TV tuner can capture the video at standard TV resolutions, the video card can output that to whatever resolution is needed, and software does the conversion in the middle. So it's no problem to connect a game console to a PC using a TV card.
