Hey, if anyone else is picking up one of these would you drop me a PM. I'd like to get one but no CC card.

Thanks.

Anyone know where i can find something similar for my Xbox controller?

So will one of these work with any game ? (disregarding vibration and dual sticks of course).

Also will the standard non-dual shock original PS1 pads work ? I assume they will ?

Yeah, I went to the link and the line about 'working with more games that similar products' was what raised the question in the first place.

I would take it that it would function as a normal 8 button pad and that the drivers would take care of putting dual stick analogue controls in certain games. If thats the case then it's a good product. Would like to see how you get on with it.

Buy hey for about what 10 Euro including delivery, it's not exactley a risk either.

I remember reading a guide on the HW modding forum about this.
All that neads to be done is cut the plug off the controller and rewire a usb plug on there.
This would make the controler useless for your xbox obviously.

There's a very good mod here

There's a link to the software needed on that site too.
This is probably the site hacktavist was talking about.

Nice sites Merc, certainly saves alot of time modding!

Anyone here ever bought off these sites?

You can get a Playstation=>USB converter in Peats (Dublin) for €20 ... I've had one for a few months, no complaints.
It's got a driver CD included...
You can use the dual-shock sticks, all the buttons, and the force-feedback works with most apps (although it's not great).

I`d be very wary of some of them converters.

The best one i`ve found is : http://www.consoleplus.co.uk/catalog/product_reviews_info.php?products_id=239&reviews_id=19

Also has a n64 pad port, handy for playing emulators.

Anyway all in all, E25 or so, 2 day delivery

Using the ps2 controllers analogue stix are excellent for racing games
