Wrong site buddy. Asking HL fanboys for help? That's like going into an enemy camp and asking for ammo.
I whish I could help but I can't. I don't have an XBox

well wait a minute - halflife2's confirmed for xbox so where can i buy a cable to allow me to play xbox hl2 on my monitor?
 
Why would you want to ruin the only reason for owning a console *shrugs*. Maybe I'm crazy but I wouldn't enjoy playing Halo on a 20" screen.
 
Screen size means nothing. You could play halo on a ten story white wall and it would still look blurry and horrible. Resolution is what counts. Piping an xbox into a monitor is just going to make the image seem more blurry. Even with all the progressive scans and 480p, you're still way under even 800x600. Ick.

If that's the case, you better not play it at all:D
 
You can do it. Buy the advanced cable from MS and an RGB to VGA converter...
Though it will look like crap... If you have an HDTV I’d recommend using that instead...

Almost true... Though on a tv it will look a whole lot better than HL2 on a mid range system on a 17" monitor...
