Q. Ok i have a very nice computer monitor and dont really feel the need to buy a tv, i have hd cable box so i can watch tv on it, and i can play ps3 and xbox 360 on it. The problem is i cant play any other game systems on it. Is there a cheep device out there that will allow me to play nes,snes,sega,nintendo 64, gamecube, etc.. on my computer monitor. Dont know if it will help but this is my monitor http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824254048&Tpk=hanns%20g%2025%20inches
A. First off, stay away from the simple passive cables that have VGA or HDMI on one end and a yellow composite video jack or green/blue/red component video jacks on the other, those cables do NOT convert the video signal to one that your monitor can use, and are marketed as scams to trick consumers (they will often use words like "adapter" or "converter" to trick or confuse buyers).
You need some type of device that converts the video signal to one that your monitor can use, either a digital DVI/HDMI signal or an analog RGBHV signal.
What I use is a line doubler that's about 12 years old and was originally designed for CRT projectors when HDTV was in its infancy. It has composite, S-video, and component video inputs, and a RGBHV output, to which I connect a VGA cable to my monitor. I'd say picking up one of those units used would be your best bet. They were very expensive new, but there is little demand for them now, so occasionally on eBay you will find a good deal on one. Here's one: http://cgi.ebay.com/Twin-Vision-TV200-Video-VGA-Line-Doubler-/250740790748?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3a6150d5dc#ht_3329wt_953

Gaming Computer or PS3: Can't Decide - What do you recommend?
Q. Alright so Christmas and my birthday is coming around. Now I've been thinking about this for quite some time. Gaming Computer or PS3? I have been wanting to get my own PS3 so I could get the games I want that aren't on the PC, and to play with friends in my neighborhood, and to play Persona 4 as well. But the other problem is that this PC is below the average gaming computer, and the computer is from 2002, so I need an update from this. Not to mention I have most of my games on the PC but some I'd like to/require have high performance, and the freedom of having your own PC is pretty sweet. So which should I get?
PS3 for:
-Games such as littleBIGPlanet 2, Ratchet & Clank, Black Ops, ScottPilgrim vs. the World, etc.
-Playing online with friends at school.
or a high-performance PC for:
-Much more of a variety of games to play.
-Less frustration on this piece of junk
-Freedom of having your own privacy
I honestly am okay with both. But I want to see what some other people think.

A. Gaming computer is better - it's not only for gaming! While PS3 is just for games and nothing else.
Gaming PCs look awesome too, you can upgrade them, change options in games, play on any monitor or TV. In many games consoles and PCs are separated on gaming servers because computer users own all console gamers.
