Possible to use MacBook pro as ps3 monitor?

I’m currently in the military and I travel alot and can’t afford to carry around a laptop ps3 and a tv. Is it possible to use the MBP as a monitor using a USB to HDMI adapter to play my ps3 on the MBP screen?

I use this device:

to connect my VCR to my Macbook so that I can transfer VHS video and audio to digital format, but it’s just composite video and not HDMI. I’ll look around to see if there is anything similar for HDMI.

OK, I’ve searched quite a bit and haven’t see a similar device for either HDMI or DVI connectors. I assume that it is frowned-up by the movie industry to produce such devices due to piracy concerns :-S

I also use Windows at work in camps and be able see in my Samsung TV. WHAT SHOULD I DO?

Depends. DVI to HDMI to kill two birds with one stone by passing the audio and video to the TV. It is likely that however, you probably want something else (like a good surround sound setup) to the attention of audio, rather than the TV speakers, this case, you want DVI to VGA, because it is cheaper. DVI to VGA results in lower quality video, but the difference is negligible for most people. The choice is yours truly.
