Because of the way in which replay data is stored on the memory card, it's impossible just to copy the replay file from the memory card to your PC and view it as a video. You need to capture the video as it's being played on the PS2. There are various ways to do this, but the two most popular are using a capture card or recording with a video camera. Capture cards are pieces of hardware which you either fit inside or attach to your PC and connect directly to your PC or from your TV to your PC. If you attach it directly you simply plug the output from your PS2 into the input of the capture card (S Video or component cables). Alternatively you can connect from component/SCART sockets on the back of the TV to the capture card. Capture cards are widely available (expect to pay about £25/$40 US for a decent model at an online retailer in your region). Alternatively you can use a video camera/digital camera to record the replay as you play it on your TV, but this leads to a lower quality production over all compared to one recorded from a capture card. If you want any more information, search for "capture card" and take a look at a few of the topics there.

You can also buy a Maxdrive USB device that allows you to save your replays to the USB device and load them onto your PC.

You can only copy the replays onto the PC then. You can't actually view them from the PC (as I said above).
