Customer Review: PS2 Controller Adaptor for Sony PS3
Summary: 4 Stars
Well there is not much to say about about this product. The PS2 Controller Adapter for Sony PS3 works just like it was described. It beats having to purchase another ps3 remote at about $50. The only reason why I did not give a 5 star rating is of course the PS button and the fact the ps2 controllers do not have the 6 axis.Customer Review: What You Need to Know
Summary: 5 Stars
Quick and dirty, this is what you need to know about this adapter:
[*] I experienced some initial trouble using my PS3 controllers to play PS2 games, but have since found that they work for most games. So this USB adapter is NOT necessary to play all PS2 games on your PS3.
[*] This DOES enable use of your old PS2 analog controllers to play MOST PS3 games. However, any PS3 game requiring the Sixaxis functionality of the new PS3 controllers and some that require R2/L2 sensitivity will not function perfectly. Also, since PS2 controllers do NOT have the Playstation/Home button that PS3 controller's have, you cannot easily exit out of games to the PS3 menu screen as you can with PS3 controllers.
[*] This DOES enable use of your PS2 analog controllers to navigate the PS3 menu screens, PSN, internet browser, etc.
[*] This is NOT fully functional with your old PS2 Guitar Hero controller. It is partially functional, but that's not good enough for GH.
[*] This IS functional for using MOST PS2 accessories (eg, steering wheels, arcade sticks, DDR mats) on your PS3. But your device may not work 100% which is likely an issue with your device's compatibility with the PS3, not this adapter.
[*] You can order this directly from Eforcity, the manufacturer in CA, for a total of $6.25 through Amazon. Mine was packaged well and shipped very quickly. It arrived in just 2 days.
[*] A Playstation 3 Dualshock 3 Wireless Controller costs $50 & the 'old' Sixaxis cost ~$40-45. A PlayStation 2 Dualshock Controller Black only costs $20 + $6.25 for this adapter. Even a nice wireless PlayStation 2 Cordless Action Controller only costs $30.
I am very happy with the two eforcity adapters I purchased. They are small and simple, but they allow me to play old PS2 games on my new PS3 as well as use my old PS2 controllers with new PS3 games.
Hope this information is helpful. Please click 'Yes' if it is.
Customer Review: worked for what i needed it for.

According to my account this is the item i purchased but, what i got in the mail doesn't look exactly like the picture, which is odd. But this has to be what I purchased...anyway, I wanted this to use my turbo ps2 controller on a ps2 game being played on my ps3 (since my ps2 no longer works). in that regard it worked perfectly, no complaints at all. If you have a ps3 controller linked wirelessly to the system, just set it to a 2 slot using the PS button on it, then the controller you have plugged in the usb using this adapter will be the controller you are to use. Customer Review: Great Product

This PS2 controller adaptor for the PS3 works perfectly. I used it to play some of my PS2 multi-player games. Haven't try this on PS3 games yet. Shipping is a little expensive but it's better than buying a new PS3 controller.Customer Review: Does not work with Guitar Hero controllers
Summary: 2 Stars
Useless to me because it does not work with guitar hero controllers. Lame. Looks and feels like a piece of junk too.
