I've tried this before with my desktop using my X800XT AIW and it was a mess. There was a noticeable delay between button presses and action on screen and the video also lagged behind the audio. I wanted to record game footage and it just failed to impress. My desktop was quick and I tweaked it really well, but I never found a solution...

Have you considered emulation? I'm not sure if the PS2 and GameCube emulators work well enough yet, but you might be able to copy your games to your hard drive and play them. I know that NES, SNES, Genesis, PSOne, N64, and many arcade games can be emulated with ease...
