1.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't work with Ps2 games on PS3, May 5, 2007

This adapter doesn't have a "PS" button which means that things like dancepads, driving wheels etc that you'd like to bring over from your PS2, won't work. When the PS3 runs a PS2 game it wants you to press the "PS" key to register the controller. No "PS" button, no work.

The cheapest and easiest solution to your need of more controllers for your ps3. I bought one of these and suprisingly enough it didnt need a ps button at all to function correctly. Guitar hero 1,2, and 80's edition all work with my guitar controller (ps2 guitar) on my playstation 3. If your looking for a way to use special controllers like I was... give this a try.

We purchased a ps3 for the kids for Christmas and got a model that could play ps2 games. My girls were very disappointed when we could not hook up the ddr mat. With the exception that it cost me just as much in shipping as the product itself, it is wonderful! The mat works just fine now.
