Connect your PS2 controllers to your Xbox 360

Have an Xbox 360 but secretly prefer your PS2 Dual Shock controllers over Microsoft's offerings? XCM's just released some photos of its latest adapter prototype, the XFPS 360, which include a pair of USB plugs, two PS/2 (the boring kind) jacks, and a place for your beloved PS2 (the fun kind) controller. In some ways, this is just a role reversal for that Xbox controller to PSP hack we spotted last year, don't you think? Anyway, the XFPS 360 hasn't quite yet entered mass production, so we've got no price or availability deets for the time being.

Does anyone know if the two USB ports on the XFPS 360 can be used to plug in two additional USB adapted PS2 controllers? Thereby allowing three PS2 controllers to be used on a single XFPS 360?

Thank you.

So does this mean that we could use an old PS2 controller with a PS3?

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 23rd 2006 12:11AM]

thats cool

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 23rd 2006 12:26AM]

OMFG! 0.o Does this mean I'll be able to use my PC controllers?!

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 25th 2006 5:54AM]

It would be awesome it this device is compatable with a PC.

Never liked the controllers that Microsoft provided. This is a really cool alternative. It will be interesting to see when this is available.

I think the 360 pad is far superior to the dual shock in every respect, except for one: the D-Pad. I will absolutely wreck my friends in Lumines with this thing.

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 30th 2006 2:09AM]

this gadget will work fine.

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 23rd 2006 2:10AM]

HOLY CRAP, can anyone say "Halo 3 with a mouse and keyboard !!!!!" wow i can not wait for this thing to come out, im buying it right away !

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 23rd 2006 2:51AM]

yeah, i want them to test this w/ the ps3, see if we can use our old ps2 controllers w/ our new ps3's

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 23rd 2006 3:58AM]

Keyboard + Mouse in Halo, should help PC gamers a lot

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 23rd 2006 4:06AM]

huh? like dual shock over 360's remote? have they held the 360 remote...it makes dual shock feel like like the decade old product it is.

On some games (FPS and driving especially), the Xbox 360 controller is absolutely amazing. However, there are a lot of other games (like the XBLA games mentioned and sports games) which play pretty poorly with the 360 controller. The bumper buttons and the D-pad are terrible and some games need them.

Does that mean we will be able to use the wireless PS2 Guitar Hero controller when Guitar Hero comes to the 360? (seeing as the 360 one will be wired)

This evil hack is just plain WRONG.

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 23rd 2006 8:39AM]

Wow, Yeah, let's regress to one of the worst controller designs on a console, one that hasn't seen a single damned upgrade aside from two little sticks, and still hurts like a b**** after long hours of play.

Lo and Behold the outpouring of support, Fangrrlz strike again.

I'd much rather Burn a bunch of these things for their inherent wickedness.

I need that.
I need that thing there, right now.

When does it get here?


Have you shipped it yeT?

Where is my tracking number?

Oh man, my life would be complete if we could use the Driving Force Pro or better yet, the G25. Of course the big issue would be support from Forza 2 but those guys at Turn 10 have to realize that one of the few things standing between them and complete domination of the driving-sim category is having a world class wheel for the 360.

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 23rd 2006 11:51AM]

Yeah, I'll stick to xbox controllers, thanks.

"Oh man, my life would be complete if we could use the Driving Force Pro or better yet, the G25."

mcr, I was just thinking the same thing! I was so pissed to see that we could not get a comparable wheel from Logitech for the xbox and it doesn't look too promising that they haven't released anything yet for the 360.

If they can work it out, put me down for one!

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 24th 2006 6:47PM]

I hope that means you'll be able to use a keyboard and mouse in games - man that would rock hard...

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 24th 2006 8:34AM]

This is perfect! All the games that didnt come out for the pc can now be played!! if you own an xbox...

This is pure ownage!
Hopefully MS doesnt make a big deal out of this.

They better hurry up with the production of this, i can hardly wait!!

[(Unverified) Posted May 7th 2007 12:49AM]

I want to use my XBOX 360 controller with my PS2 is there any adapter for that!

[(Unverified) Posted Oct 2nd 2007 1:54PM]

Just brill.. this gadget has sold the Xbox to me, love Pro Evo, and have only ever owned PS2. Friends have Xbox, and this is the best way to get invloved playing live online with them. Better price for the Xbox also.

[(Unverified) Posted Dec 7th 2007 5:21PM]

Lets see.... Xbox+harddisk+memory+FXPS360+keyboard+mouse = a bunch'o cash

Buy a PC you idiots!!!!

Plugging a PS2 controller in to a 360? That would be like putting your meat and two veg in a tub labled AIDS.
