Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Ideal for displaying playstation2 games on an LCD monitor
I am very happy with the HD Gamebox. I bought it in order to play ps2 games on a 19" lcd computer monitor. I can compare it with two other products that I also use: Gamebridge AVC-1400 and Neoya's X2VGA2.

Details of my setup: I use a slimline Playstation 2 (scph-77001), with Sony's "Playstation 3 Component AV Cables" (YPbPr component video, these work for ps2), with a Dell 19" LCD monitor at 1280x1024 resolution and I hook up the audio cables directly to a stereo hi-fi.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - NOT TOO BAD
I agree with the previous review but I wouldn't say this product is simply a piece of junk. Pros and cons stated by previous reviews will not be repeated here, but I have a couple of points to add.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Because one online review is never enough to make an educated decision....lol
I purchased a brand new Genia HD GameBox from HDTVonPC through Amazon due to the price being exponentially lower. Long story short....It's in the process of being returned now.

Pros:

Cons:
1) It does not support 16:9 aspect ratio as advertised.
2) It does not come with a remote control as advertised. ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - geniatech hd-game box for computer monitors
This is a neat product that allows you to hook-up TV type video inputs such as composite, s-video, and component video (either interlaced or progressive). The product works fairly well especially when using a component video input. The s-video input provided poor brightness when I used it with my Gamecube. You can adjust brightness, contrast, etc. on the unit itself but it's very slow and cumbersome to do so and you are probably better off changing these settings on the monitor itself. This device upscales ... Read More
