Default well, since it was my [good] idea...

i wanna hook my console systems [xbox, 64, genisis, etc.] up to my monitor. obviously i can do this with my video card, but is there a cable i can use to do it without using my video card? or could i make one? im looking for s-video or composite to VGA. id prefer to make one. anyone know where i can find out how to do this?
