    Is there any form of adapter, you can buy to do this?

    I would really like to do this, since I think it would be awesome to play games on a tv instead of a laptop monitor.

    Edit: NOT A PC, A TV. Typo. :p

    It would be best to tell us the make and model of your tv.

    The games I am going to play are old anyways. So it doesn't matter if it isn't HD quality, the games aren't.
