I'm thinking of getting a PS3 and I'm wondering if there's any way to hook it up to my LCD monitor through VGA or DVI?

And if your monitor happen to be able to display 1920*1200, then you can enjoy FULL HD

yup, I am doing right now with an HDMI to DVI cable. You will need to take the sound somewhere else though. I do it with a fiber optic cable. DVI does not carry sound.

Yep, the sound is no problem, I have (well had...that's why I'm here now:)) a 360 hooked up that way right now. Thanks for the responses
