Ok, I just had this random thought as its been annoying me for ages that i cant take screenshots with my ps2..My thought is this ..

If anyone out there has Psu for Ps2 and oneof those usb memory stick things maybe you could try it out to see if it works ..

I was thinking like the old DC and GC version where as maybe if you put the usb memory stick into the 2nd usb port of the Ps2 and hit the print screen key as you would on Pc it might take screenshots..Then place the Usb memory stick into your pc and transfer them.... Hmmmm

Has anybody tried this yet or is anyone capable of trying this and letting us know the outcome..

Thanks

XD

Man I thought of this a while back.... of course I thought it was not possible, but I guess if someone else thinks of it, it's worth a shot. Too bad I don't have a memory stick http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

You could always run your PS2 through a tuner card and take screens...

Yeah I believe that that's what he means... but I really want to know if the usb method will work. I could always just go buy one soon and try it out...

Pretty much Gamemako hit it on the head; you need a tuner card or capture card.

Personally, Im getting a external one to take pics and record when I am playing.
Heres a link to one I am buying soon (price varies): http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0009UDABW/ref=dp_cp_ob_title_1/105-3445593-9028441

Is there a way to connect your TV to your comp and take screenshots like that?

If you're really desperate, just take photos with you digital camera. Sure, it's not the same, but it works.
