how not good are we talking? really bad to the point where it bothers you, or bad like if i was playing on an old tv. Also, do you plug straight from the box into the monitor's s-video, composite jack, or vga?

I do it with my PS2 and it's fine.
In fact I use my 2001FP as a TV all the time and it looks pretty darn good.
I plug my PS2 into my VCR which goes into the 2001FP via composite.

Ok cool. I'm still undecided on the xbox or ps2, but I'm glad to know it will be playable it i hook it up via s-video into the 2001FP. I'm not looking for amazing graphics, i just want it to look pretty good and be able to save me a bunch of space. Thanks

$65 dollars is kinda steep. How much of a difference will it make over s-video and it there a comparable unit for ps2?

Someone mind posting :camera: of the 2001fp in action with a console? Even better if you have a VGA box and can show a "with" and "without" picture. :)

I tried hooking a gamecube up to my 2001fp with s-video cable. I didn't think it looked very good and just went back to putting it on the tv. Never tried xbox or ps2, but doubt they'd be any different.
