Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

    I don' t have much experience with VGA boxes, but I do have my PS2 hooked up through an AIW 9800 Pro. Yes, there are big differences between capture cards, and I suspect the same broadness in performance happens with VGA boxes as well. The key thing is to make sure that there is no lag in the video, as even a couple hundred milliseconds will throw off your timing, especially in rhythm games where that'll make the game unplayable. As well, decently written software/drivers are good to have, so make sure that the device you choose is well supported.

    I dont' think rythym games will be a problem... I was just thinking of using it to hook a PS1 up to my monitor. Right now, I'm so bored with Star Ocean TtEoT, I don't want to play it, but I can't play anything else til I beat it (cuz I said so). so I'm just sitting here thinking about stuff that'd be pretty fun to do.
