Marcus Wolfe Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 Greetings everyone. I always wondered how they got screen shots of console games. I assumed that they used the screenshot function of a computer version. However, I am now aware not only that this isn’t true, but it is possible for a regular person to do take screenshots of a console game. Long question short: How do I take screenshots of a PS2 game?

Thanodai Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 Essentially what Revan67 said, buy a TV tuner and hook your console up to your pc. But unless you're willing to spend alot of cash the quality will be crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanodai Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 I did neglect to mention however if that if the TV tuner doesn't come with media/capture software, you're going to have to buy that separately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus Wolfe Posted April 15, 2008 Author Share Posted April 15, 2008 Can these cards be installed on laptops? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoogieMonster Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 If you want a video capture device to use with you laptop, bad news, if it's not built-in already then you'll have to use something external. And we all know external devices are really freakin expensive. There are several internet sites that have them (Newegg, tigerdirect, etc), so there are plenty of choices for you. Here are a couple from tigerdirect website.http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/ca....asp?CatId=1428 If you have a PC with an empty slot, this will be far less complicated and also quite a bit cheaper. You install capture cards and TV tuner cards just like any other card. They usually come packaged with any software you'll require to get started. Here are a couple on the newegg websitehttp://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList....e=%2410+-+%2425 I you would like yet a third option (and I'm sure there are many more) take a look at this video. It's not a Rick Roll I promise.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bZqTTZVD2U Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
