Well, I look silly now asking for help myself after helping the post below me but oh well. I'm wondering what is the simplest way to play any console on my PC monitor? I already have my PS3 working on it but the same strategy doesn't apply to my PS2 nor my Gamecube. I figured since they all have RCA cables, my best best is an RCA converter of some sort but I'm not sure what is good and what is bad. I searched online myself but found mixed reviews or products that I am not positive on. Thanks for the help.

Radical Designs	I honestly do not see the point in this. Considering most systems such as a Gamecube or Nintendo 64 are not what I'd consider "high definition", plugging them into a monitor through a RCA converter seems like a waste of time, unless all you have is a computer monitor. The quickest way would be to simply get a RCA to VGA converter box or something. But I doubt they are cheap.
