PS2 on an monitor (arcade or otherwise)

[Generic Eric]

Does anyone have info on hooking up a PS2 to a monitor?

I read about a device that would allow you to do this, but you had to load a cd each time.

Just wondering if anyone has sucess.

I don't know the specifics of the PS2 scart output buf if it's similar to the xbox you might want to read this:

There are a couple people that have reviewed this on www.gamesx.com forums.  The device does a crappy job on most games, and only a select few actually look acceptable (these are some latest games that actually have "hi-res" options in the game menu's).

The only way to reliably play ps2 games on a computer monitor is to ues an upscanner (like the X-RGB2 as discussed in the Game Consoles section on this site).
